Plagiarism Screening

To ensure academic integrity and maintain the quality of published articles, all submitted manuscripts are screened for plagiarism using Turnitin before entering the peer-review process. The plagiarism screening is conducted to verify the originality of the manuscript and ensure that all sources are properly cited in accordance with ethical publishing standards.

The journal applies a maximum similarity index of 25% for manuscripts to be eligible for further processing. Manuscripts exceeding this threshold may be returned to the authors for revision or rejected at the discretion of the Editorial Board. The final decision is based not only on the overall similarity percentage but also on the nature and context of the matched content.

Authors are encouraged to carefully review their manuscripts before submission to ensure originality, proper citation, and compliance with publication ethics. The journal reserves the right to reject manuscripts that contain plagiarism, duplicate publication, or other forms of academic misconduct.
