Plagiarism Pattern: Delinked Dupe
Definition
A delinked dupe is a word-for-word plagiarist who takes text from another author, acknowledges their words by use of quotation marks and the full in-text citation, but omits the bibliographic reference to what has been quoted.
Original Source Material: Five first principles are elaborated: (a) Learning is promoted when learners are engaged in solving real-world problems. (b) Learning is promoted when existing knowledge is activated as a foundation for new knowledge. (c) Learning is promoted when new knowledge is demonstrated to the learner. (d) Learning is promoted when new knowledge is applied by the learner. (e) Learning is promoted when new knowledge is integrated into the learner’s world. Reference Merrill, M. D. (2002). First principles of instruction. Educational Technology Research and Development, 50(3), 43-59.

Student Version: Merrill (2002, p. 43) claims that "learning is promoted when learners are engaged in solving real-world problems, existing knowledge is activated as a foundation for new knowledge, new knowledge is demonstrated to the learner, new knowledge is applied by the learner, and when new knowledge is integrated into the learner’s world."

For a Certification Test item that is similar to this pattern, the correct answer is:
| Word-for-word plagiarism | |
| Paraphrasing plagiarism | |
| Not plagiarism |
| Explanation: | Correct Version: Not plagiarized |
|---|---|
The student version is word-for-word plagiarism because seven or more words are copied from the source, and quotation marks are used as well as the full in-text citation with the author, date, and locator. However, there is no full bibliographic reference. |
