Plagiarism Policy
Plagiarism Policy
All submitted manuscripts are subject to plagiarism screening using plagiarism detection software (such as Turnitin or equivalent) to ensure the originality of the work before the review process.
- The maximum acceptable similarity index is no more than 20%.
- Manuscripts exceeding this threshold will be returned to authors for revision or may be rejected outright.
- Plagiarism includes verbatim copying, improper paraphrasing, and unacknowledged use of sources.
Note: Self-plagiarism (redundant publication) is also strictly prohibited and will be treated with the same seriousness as other forms of plagiarism.
