Plagiarism Policy
Similarity screening, plagiarism assessment, text reuse, and potential editorial action.
Screening
Submissions are screened using Turnitin. A similarity report above 19%, excluding the bibliography, may be returned for revision or rejected after editorial assessment. A numerical score does not replace editorial examination of the underlying matches.
Plagiarism and text reuse
Plagiarism in any form is unacceptable. Unjustified or excessive reuse of an author's previously published work without proper citation is also prohibited. Serious cases may lead to rejection, retraction, suspension of publishing privileges, or notification of the relevant institution after due review.
