Plagiarism policy

Plagiarism, data fabrication and image manipulation are not tolerated.

Plagiarism is not acceptable in EJTAS submissions.

Plagiarism includes copying text, ideas, images, or data from another source, even from your own publications, without giving any credit to the original source.

Reuse of text that is copied from another source must be between quotes and the original source must be cited. If a study's design or the manuscript's structure or language has been inspired by previous works, these works must be explicitly cited.

All EJTAS submissions are checked for plagiarism using the industry standard software Turnitin. The similarity rate should be less than 25%. If plagiarism is detected during the peer review process, the manuscript may be rejected. If plagiarism is detected after publication, an investigation will take place and action taken in accordance with our policies.
