This study aimed to evaluate Jordanian pharmacy postgraduate students’ knowledge, behavior and perception about plagiarism and why do they commit such research misconduct.

This is a cross-sectional survey that was conducted in Jordan during the period between June-July 2019. The study targeted postgraduate pharmacy students from all Jordanian universities. Recruited students were asked to fill out the study questionnaire to evaluate their knowledge, behavior, and perception about plagiarism.

A total of 103 postgraduate students participated in this survey, most of them (n = 93, 90.3%) were enrolled in masters programs. Most of them (n = 72, 69.9%) reported that they have committed plagiarism during their studies, but this work was unintended for about 76.4% (n = 55) of the plagiarist.

Students were asked about 12 items that represented plagiarism actions and most of postgraduate students were able to identify most of the actions as plagiarism (> 60% for most items). Overall, the mean knowledge score for students about plagiarism was 8.6 ± 2.6 (out of 12).

Regarding students’ perceptions towards plagiarism, many students (n = 99, 96.1%) believed that plagiarizing is as bad as to steal from someone and 92.2% (n = 95) reported that plagiarism is considered against their ethical values.

This study found a high rate of plagiarism among postgraduate pharmacy students in Jordan despite their awareness and understanding of the concept and its different forms. Academic institutions must establish formal policies to raise awareness about plagiarism, enforce and implement penalties for those who commit plagiarism.

这项研究旨在评估约旦药学研究生对窃的知识，行为和看法，以及他们为什么会进行此类研究不当行为。

这是一项于2019年6月至7月期间在约旦进行的横断面调查。该研究针对约旦所有大学的研究生药学专业学生。被招募的学生被要求填写研究问卷，以评估他们对窃的知识，行为和感知。

共有103名研究生参加了这项调查，其中大多数（n = 93，90.3％）被录取为硕士课程。他们中的大多数（n = 72，69.9％）报告说他们在研究期间犯了窃行为，但这项工作对大约76.4％（n = 55）的the窃者来说是意料之外的。

向学生询问了12项代表12窃行为的项目，大多数研究生能够将大多数行为识别为窃（大多数项目> 60％）。总体而言，学生关于about窃的平均知识得分为8.6±2.6（满分12分）。

关于学生对窃的看法，许多学生（n = 99，96.1％）认为窃与从某人身上偷窃一样糟糕，92.2％（n = 95）报告称窃被视为违反其道德价值观。

这项研究发现，尽管约旦的研究生药房学生对这一概念及其不同形式有所了解和理解，但他们的of窃率很高。学术机构必须制定正式政策，以提高人们对窃的认识，对实施gi窃的人实施和实施处罚。
