INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY STATEMENT
Utrecht University defines “plagiarism” as follows:
“If, in a thesis or some other paper, data or parts of a text produced by someone else are
used without the source being identified, this shall be considered plagiarism. Among other
things, plagiarism may entail the following:
cutting and pasting text from digital sources such as encyclopaedias or digital
journals, without using quotations marks and references;
cutting and pasting any text from the internet without using quotation marks and
references;
copying from printed material such as books, journals or encyclopaedias without
using quotations marks and references;
using a translation of the above texts in your own work, without using quotations
marks and references;
paraphrasing the above texts without using references. A paraphrase should never
consist of merely replacing some words by synonyms;
using pictures, sound recordings, or test materials produced by others without
references, such that it appears that this is one’s own work;
copying work by other students and passing this off as one’s own work. If this is done
with the other student’s consent, the latter shall be an accomplice to the plagiarism;
even in cases where plagiarism is committed by one of the authors collaborating on a
paper, the other authors shall be accomplices to plagiarism if they could or ought to
have known that the first-mentioned author was committing plagiarism;
submitting papers acquired from a commercial source (such as an internet site
offering summaries or complete essays) or written by someone else for payment.”
I have read the above definition of plagiarism and certify with my signature on the
preceding page that I have not committed plagiarism in the appended essay or paper.
