چکیده:
The aim of the present research was to assess the attitude and behavior of students regarding plagiarism. The research method was descriptive-correlational, and the tool used was a structured questionnaire containing closed-ended questions, whose validity was examined by obtaining group views from experts. The reliability coefficient of the questionnaire was obtained between 0.81 to 0.89 using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The target statistical population included all students (Master's and PhD) of the Faculty of Agriculture at Tarbiat Modares University who had completed at least two academic semesters (N=559), from which 225 people were selected as a statistical sample (n=225) using the Krejcie and Morgan table via stratified random sampling. The descriptive results of the research showed that the level of attitude and behavior of most students regarding plagiarism was at the 'relatively unfavorable and moderate' levels, respectively. Also, the research findings showed that there is a difference between the behavior of students who participated in article writing training workshops and those who did not.
