一项初步的、由两部分组成的研究探讨了作者在多大程度上重复使用了他们自己以前发表的论文中的部分文本。所有9篇文章都来自最近一期的心理学杂志，被选为目标论文。还获得了每篇目标文章中引用的最多3篇由相同作者撰写的最新参考文献。所有目标文献及其相应参考文献均以数字方式存储。然后，使用专门的软件，将每篇参考文献与其目标文章进行比较，以评估与两篇论文相同的文本字符串的数量。在9篇目标文章中，只有一篇文章大量使用了其中一篇参考文献中的文字。为了进一步探讨进一步重复使用文本的可能性，对9套文件中的每一套文件的参考文献进行了比较。新的比较确定了5对论文，其中大量相同的文本字符串长度为6个连续单词或更长，但大多数重复使用的文本仅限于方法部分。结果表明，这些作者中的一些人重复使用自己的文字与一定的频率，但这在很大程度上局限于复杂的方法描述的研究设计和程序。
A preliminary, two-part study explored the extent to which authors reuse portions of their own text from previously published papers. All 9 articles from a recent issue of a psychology journal were selected as target papers. Up to 3 of the most recent references cited in each of the target articles and written by the same authors were also obtained. All target articles and their corresponding references were stored digitally. Then, using specialized software, each reference was compared to its target article to assess the number of strings of text identical to both papers. Only one of the nine target articles reused significant amounts of text from one of its references. To explore further the possibility of additional text reuse, the references in each of the 9 sets of papers were compared against each other. The new comparison identified 5 pairs of papers with a substantial number of identical strings of text of 6 consecutive words in length or longer, but most of the reused text was confined to the Method section. The results suggest that some of these authors reuse their own text with some frequency, but this was largely confined to complex methodological descriptions of a research design and procedure.
