Screaning Plagiarism

Journal of Communication Science and Public Administration (JCSPA) is committed to maintaining academic integrity and ensuring the originality of all published articles. All manuscripts submitted to the journal are subject to plagiarism screening before entering the peer-review process.

The editorial team uses appropriate plagiarism detection software to identify similarities between submitted manuscripts and previously published works, including journal articles, books, conference proceedings, theses, dissertations, websites, and other academic sources.

Manuscripts that contain substantial similarities or indications of plagiarism will be carefully evaluated by the editorial team. Authors may be required to revise the manuscript, provide clarification, or demonstrate the originality of the submitted work. Manuscripts that are found to contain plagiarism or other forms of academic misconduct may be rejected without proceeding to the peer-review process.

JCSPA considers plagiarism, self-plagiarism, duplicate publication, redundant publication, and inappropriate use of previously published material to be serious violations of publication ethics.

Authors are responsible for ensuring that their manuscripts are original and that all ideas, statements, data, quotations, figures, tables, and other materials derived from other sources are properly acknowledged and cited.

The journal encourages authors to use appropriate paraphrasing and citation practices and to ensure that their manuscripts comply with accepted standards of academic integrity before submission.

Through this plagiarism screening policy, Journal of Communication Science and Public Administration (JCSPA) seeks to maintain the originality, credibility, transparency, and scholarly quality of all articles published by the journal.
