Objective: inquire about the perceptions of teachers and students on the topic of plagiarism, with the assumption that clarity regarding this phenomenon is an unavoidable step forward towards a solution. Methodology: two types of instruments were used: a closed questionnaire and a semi-structured questionnaire with open questions. Findings: the comparison of both populations’ perspectives is shown based on the open questionnaire. Conclussions: the results show that there are important differences in the perceptions of teachers and students in topics such as the severity of plagiarism and factors associated to it.
