Which type of inappropriate practice most likely occurred if a researcher takes credit for someone else's idea and does not acknowledge the original source?

An inappropriate practice which most likely occurred if a researcher takes credit for someone else’s idea and does not acknowledge the original source is called plagiarism. Plagiarism is cheating and categorized as theft.  

EXPLANATION:  

Plagiarism is an act of ‘stealing’ others’ idea. It is when researchers or even students copying the idea, words, phrases, or works from someone else without giving the credit in their writing. Actually, nothing’s wrong when researchers or students cite other sources for their work. Yet, if they don’t give the credit or the source of their phrases, ideas, or words, it is categorized as plagiarizing.

•Facts, ideas, or statistics which are not your own and not common knowledge, yet it is stated without citation.

•Direct quote from a source where it is not quoted marks, in-text citation, and reference. It includes paraphrasing a quote from a source and not using reference or in-text citation.  

•Citing source without giving the real bibliographical information.

•Selling, copying, and purchasing assignments, papers, or exams from students to students, or researchers to researchers. It can also form the website to others.  

•Submitting assignment, works, papers, or exams from the previous task to the new task.  

•Copying audio, image, spreadsheet, PowerPoint, video, etc. without proper reference or citation.
