Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Some degree of text recycling may be acceptable when the same or similar methodologies are used on more than one study (option A). Additionally, it may be acceptable when the introduction is on the same topic as the authors' other, closely related studies (option B).

Therefore, options A and B may be acceptable under certain circumstances, but option C is not.
