detection software (Warn, 2006). Using detection services, the goal is to change student behavior and cultural 
perception towards plagiarism through a response to increased scrutiny resulting in a marked decrease of instances 
of plagiarism (Warn, 2006). Studies have shown that the use of detection software helps to lower the occurrence of 
plagiarism, and can be predicted based on attitudinal considerations (Bennett, 2005). In one study, 25-90% of 
students interviewed admit to participating in some form of plagiarism (Franklin-Stokes and Newstead, 1995). Many 
students feel they will not be caught, and others are unaware that such detection services are being used to evaluate 
student work (Liddell, 2003).
