This is the discussion thread for the lesson "Research Misconduct: Fabrication, Falsification, and Plagiarism" (Research Methodology, Unit 5). Ask questions, share real-world examples, and help classmates who are stuck.
Conversation starters. Try explaining one of these in your own words:
- Define fabrication, falsification, and plagiarism (FFP) and give a security-domain example of each
- Explain why malware's own sandbox-evasion behaviour is an analogy for falsification in experiment design
- Apply the UGC 2018 four-level plagiarism penalty table to a given similarity percentage and state the required consequence
