Abstract

As part of the explosive growth in usage of the Internet, an increasing number of vendors are using this medium to make term papers available for students to purchase. This article provides information for management and organizational behavior faculty with regard to the availability of term papers for sale to students over the Internet. A sampling of term paper providers, along with the services they offer and their price structures, are given. Examples of paper titles that are specifically targeted toward management and organizational behavior are also provided. The article concludes with suggestions for ways in which instructors can deal with the proliferation of term paper providers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
