1. Plagiarism and self-plagiarism are not allowed;
2. The authors should ensure that they have written entirely original works and, if they have used the work and/or words of others, that this has been appropriately cited or quoted;
3. An author should not generally publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behaviour and is unacceptable.
4. Proper acknowledgment of the work of others must always be given. Authors should cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work.
Working Process:
1. The editorial team checks manuscripts on offline and online databases manually (checking proper citation and quotation);
2. The editorial team checks the manuscript using Turnitin. If there is evidence of plagiarism (more than 20%), the board will reject the manuscript immediately.
