Definition

Policy Statement

  • All submitted manuscripts must be original, unpublished, and not under consideration for publication elsewhere.

  • Any material reproduced verbally or textually from other sources must be clearly identified and properly cited to distinguish it from the author’s own text.

If plagiarism is detected, the Editor-in-Chief is responsible for reviewing the case and determining the appropriate course of action according to the severity of the plagiarism, guided by the following criteria:

Levels of Plagiarism and Actions
