Abstract

Plagiarism is a hot topic in the education sector. Mainly focusing on the business education sector, the paper reviews the literature on plagiarism and exposes the soft complexity underlining the plagiarism problem. The complexity of the plagiarism theme is further depicted using the cognitive mapping technique, which can be considered as an attempt to enhance the multiperspective, systems‐based cognitive filter in the multiperspective, systems‐based research. Finally, the paper recommends the employment of systems thinking that endorses the employment of multiple perspectives and multiple methodologies in future research works on the topic of plagiarism.
