Definition of Plagiarism

Plagiarism occurs when an author uses ideas, information, or wording from another source without properly acknowledging the original source. Even if unintentional, plagiarism is considered a serious violation in international academic publishing.

  • When an idea is taken from another source—whether a method, interpretation, theory, or general insight—it must be cited, even if the author elaborates further upon that idea.
  • When specific data (e.g., names, dates, locations, or statistics) is obtained from a particular source, a citation is required, except when the information qualifies as common knowledge (i.e., verifiable in multiple standard references or generally known).
  • When an author uses exact wording (four or more consecutive words) from another source, both a citation and quotation marks are required. A citation alone is not sufficient in such cases.

Violation of these standards, including improper paraphrasing or copying without adequate credit, may result in manuscript rejection or withdrawal of acceptance, even if the review process is already completed.
