The journal is committed to maintaining academic integrity and ensuring the originality of all published articles. All accepted manuscripts are routinely screened for plagiarism using Turnitin during the copyediting stage.
The maximum acceptable similarity index is 25%. Manuscripts with a similarity index exceeding 25% will be returned to the authors for revision and resubmission. The editorial team may take further action if the similarity remains above the acceptable threshold.
The journal considers plagiarism, including substantial duplication of text, ideas, data, figures, or other forms of academic content without proper acknowledgment, to be a serious violation of publication ethics.
Authors are responsible for ensuring that their manuscripts are original and that all sources, quotations, and previously published materials are appropriately cited and acknowledged.
If plagiarism or substantial text overlap is identified after publication, the journal may take appropriate action in accordance with its publication ethics policy, including correction, expression of concern, or retraction, as appropriate.
This policy applies to all accepted manuscripts processed by the journal.
