This entry was originally created by D. McGiveron, 2006.

Comments:

100% of the people we surveyed (Fall 2012) expressed familiarity with this term, but more than 3/4 of those people defined "bogus" as "fake or fraudulent."The remaining 1/4 defined "bogus" consistent with the 2006 entry.This entry should be updated.

100% of the surveyed participants were familiar with the word and 3/4 of that group defined "bogus" in a similar fashion to the 2006 entry. (Serbalik, A-F, 2019)
