THIS MAKES NO SENSE TO ME. I would think the least likely plagiarizers would be college students, since we have to get that "don't plagiarize or we will expel you and you will have a black mark to your name for the rest of your life," at the beginning of every goddamn class. I mean, really.
I am so terrified of accidental plagiarism, that I cite EVERYTHING. Like, even things that I looked at for two seconds, just to be safe. I mean, if I read something about the topic at some point in my life, I will probably cite it.
