Plagiarism
AIQU: Journal Multidiscipliner of Science help the editor verify the authenticity of the submitted manuscript. As part of this process, selected submitted manuscripts will be scanned and compared against the Grammarly® Plagiarism Checker database and the Turnitin database.
Plagiarism is when an author tries to pass off someone else's work as his or her own. Duplicate publication, sometimes called self-plagiarism, occurs when an author reuses important parts of his or her own published work without providing appropriate references. This can range from having identical papers published in multiple journals, to salami cutting, where the author adds a small amount of new data to a previous paper.
PLAGIARISM BEFORE PUBLISHING:
AIQU: Journal Multidiscipliner of Science will assess each case of plagiarism on its merits. If plagiarism is detected by members of the editorial board, reviewers, editors, etc., at any stage of the article process - before or after acceptance then we will alert the authors of the same and will ask them to rewrite the content or to cite the references from which the content originates taken. If more than 20% of the paper is plagiarized - the article can be rejected and the same notified to the author.
WHEN IS A PLAGIARISM CHECK PERFORMED?
All manuscripts submitted for publication are checked for plagiarism upon submission and before initiating review.
HOW IS Plagiarism HANDLED?
Manuscripts where plagiarism is detected are handled based on the level of plagiarism. >5%
Plagiarism: Manuscripts will be assigned an ID and the manuscript sent to the author for content revision.
5- 20% Plagiarism: Manuscript will be sent back to the author for content revision.
>20% Plagiarism: Manuscript will be rejected without review. Authors are advised to revise the manuscript and resubmit the manuscript.
WHY MANUSCRIPTS WITH PLAGIARISM >20% ARE REJECTED:
If more than 20% plagiarism is detected, it is found that the author is highly unlikely to revise the manuscript and submit a revised version. However, authors are welcome to make necessary revisions and submit the manuscript as a new submission.
