All submitted manuscripts undergo plagiarism screening as part of the editorial assessment process. Authors are expected to submit original work that has not been published elsewhere and is not simultaneously under consideration by another journal.
The journal does not accept plagiarism, duplicate publication, excessive text recycling, manipulated images, or any form of academic misconduct. Appropriate citation and acknowledgement of previously published work are required.
Where significant similarity or ethical concerns are identified, the editorial office may request clarification from the authors, reject the manuscript, or take appropriate editorial action depending on the circumstances.
