Plagiarsm policy

All manuscripts must be screened by Grammarly and be free from plagiarism contents. All authors are suggested to use plagiarism detection software to do the similarity checking. Editors check the plagiarism detection of articles in this journal using Turnitin software.

If a manuscript has over 20% plagiarism based on the result of Turnitin, we will send back the manuscript to the author to be revised for the plagiarised contents.

The plagiarism includes:

1. Word-for-word plagiarism - borrowing another author's language word-for-word but not
    citing the language in quotation marks or correctly citing it.

2. Source plagiarism - using the idea of others without giving enough recognition or
    mentioning the source explicitly.

3. Plagiarism of authorship - presenting another author's work as one's own.

4. Self-plagiarism - authorship publishing one article in more than one journal by recycling
   papers. The important thing in self-plagiarism is that when citing one's own work, the
   new article produced must have significant changes. This means that the article is a small
   part of the new articles produced. So readers will get new things, which the author pours
   over new articles from old articles.
