1. Introduction

Plagiarism, in any form, is unacceptable. This policy outlines how we define, detect, and address plagiarism in submissions.

2. Definition of Plagiarism

Plagiarism includes copying text, ideas, or data without proper attribution, as well as self-plagiarism (reusing one's own previously published work without citation).

3. Detection Methods

We use plagiarism detection software and manual checks to identify potential plagiarism in submissions.

4. Consequences

Plagiarized submissions will be rejected. Repeat offenders may be banned from submitting to the journal and reported to their institution.

5. Proper Citation Guidelines

Authors must use MLA citation styles to properly attribute all sources. For guidance, refer to our Submission Guidelines.
