Academic Integrity

ABU's Research Policy is described as university-wide for research practice and defines plagiarism as research ethical misconduct; this is adjacent research-integrity context and not AI-specific guidance.

The ABU Research Policy is a university wide policy and these guidelines should be seen as a framework for sound research practice and for the protection of individual research workers, including both staff and postgraduate research students, from possible misunderstanding.

Plagiarism is a form of ethical misconduct in research and consists of the intentional or unintentional "use of the words, ideas, diagrams of publicly available work without appropriately acknowledging the sources of these materials."

Privacy

ABU's Research Policy assigns responsibility for research data collection, management, storage, and retention in research projects; the source does not state AI-tool-specific privacy or security rules.
