摘要
In this brief we shift the current academic integrity conversation from “detecting and preventing plagiarism” to “examining how plagiarized contents can be corrected with an objective knowledge of the number of words to modify and properly acknowledged”. We proposed a simple, yet useful and powerful mathematical model that is useful for both students, authors, and technology-enabled plagiarism detection firms. We discussed the model, its relevance to students and authors, and firms.
