Plagiarism

Plagiarism Check

Authors must ensure that their work is original. If authors use the work and/or words of others, proper citation must be provided in accordance with applicable referencing standards. Authors are not permitted to publish manuscripts that describe the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal simultaneously is considered unethical and unacceptable.

The editor will conduct a plagiarism check using iThenticate and/or Turnitin software before the manuscript is forwarded to reviewers. We do not process content that indicates potential plagiarism. If the plagiarism check result shows a similarity level of more than 20%, the article will be returned to the author for revision and removal of the plagiarized content.
