Plagiarism Policy

Plagiarism is defined as the use of another person's ideas, words, or work without proper attribution or permission. Our scope encompasses direct copying, paraphrasing without citation, submitting previously published work as original, and self-plagiarism where authors reuse their own previous work without appropriate disclosure. The journal recognizes various forms of plagiarism including verbatim copying, mosaic plagiarism, paraphrasing plagiarism, and source-based plagiarism.

The journal considers the following forms of academic misconduct: plagiarism and text recycling; data fabrication and falsification; duplicate publication; authorship misconduct including gift authorship and ghost authorship; citation manipulation; and breach of confidentiality. Each form of misconduct undermines the integrity of scholarly communication and is subject to appropriate action.

All submitted manuscripts undergo comprehensive plagiarism screening using advanced detection software and manual review by editorial staff. The detection process includes: similarity analysis against extensive databases of academic literature; cross-checking with previously published works; verification of proper citation practices; and assessment of originality in data presentation and analysis. Manuscripts with similarity scores above 10% trigger detailed review and potential rejection.
