Attribution-Non-Attribution Framework

The Attribution-Non-Attribution Framework is a method used to determine whether knowledge or information can be traced back to a specific source. In simple terms, "attribution" means giving credit to the original creator of an idea or finding, while "non-attribution" involves using knowledge without identifying its source. This framework helps clarify the importance of acknowledging contributions in academic and creative fields, ensuring transparency and respect for intellectual property, while also allowing for the sharing of information in ways that foster collaboration and innovation.
