Health census is a widely used method in academic field, which is used to detect whether there is plagiarism, plagiarism or unauthorized use of other people's achievements in papers, graduation projects, master's research papers and other manuscripts.
With the increasing demand for academic integrity in postgraduate entrance examination, thesis and graduation project, students and teachers pay more attention to the use of tools in census. However, when we use it, we will find that there are often more words found in the new census tool than in the original article. Let's analyze the causes and solutions of this problem.
First of all, the tool of dimension census is to judge whether there is plagiarism or plagiarism by calculating the similarity of the whole article. In the process of comparison, the software will identify and remove the non-substantive content such as format, pictures, tables and notes in the article, thus reducing the number of words in the text.
But some articles contain tables, pictures, notes and so on. Although these contents do not seem to account for the number of words in the article, they will still be counted as the content of the article when checking the duplicate, resulting in an increase in the number of words after checking the duplicate.
Secondly, some texts with specific formats are also prone to detection errors. For example, the standardized reference format, the treatment scheme of large paragraphs and large paragraphs reference, etc. Due to the heavy tools of dimension census, it is impossible to distinguish which contents in the text are the same as those in the original document and which are descriptive behaviors that must be unified in format and have little practical significance.
So, how can we solve the above problems?
1. For articles containing pictures, tables and notes, it is best to perform format conversion before submitting the duplicate check, and delete these contents or take other clearing methods to avoid such contents affecting the duplicate check results.
2. The standardized typesetting of references can be realized by using document management software, and the copying errors caused by self-typesetting can be avoided. At the same time, for long quoted content, it is necessary to check whether it follows the correct format before duplicate checking, and if possible, it can be converted into pictures to avoid mistakes.
3. When writing, the author should pay attention to originality and reasonable quotation of others' achievements, and avoid plagiarism from the source, so as to get accurate results when checking duplicates.
In a word, the phenomenon of repeated words in the census is caused by some factors. For academic articles and papers, originality and completeness are very important. We should actively face the tools of duplicate checking, thus ensuring the real academic integrity and knowledge of teaching.
