Plagiarism Policy

"PLAGIARISM" can occur in two forms: 1) author(s) intentionally copy someone else's work and claim it as their own, or 2) author(s) copy her or his own previously published material either in full or in part, without providing appropriate references - also called as "self-plagiarism" or "duplicate publication".

Plagiarism before publication

The Journal ARISTO (Social, Politic, Humanity) will check any case of plagiarism on its own merits. If plagiarism is detected, either by the editors, peer reviewers or editorial staff at any stage prior to manuscript publication - before or after manuscript acceptance, or during the editing process or proofreading stage, we will caution the author(s) and ask her or him to revise the manuscript by either rewriting it or properly citing the original references or sources. If the plagiarism is extensive - at least 15% of the original submission is plagiarized - the article may be rejected and the author's institution will be notified.

When is plagiarism check done?

Every manuscript submitted for publication in Journal ARISTO (Social, Politic, Humanity) will be checked after being submitted and before being sent to an editor for editorial review.

How is plagiarism check done?

Journal ARISTO (Social, Politic, Humanity) uses PlagScan Software to detect instances of overlapping and similar text in the submitted manuscripts. PlagScan is an entirely browser-based web service that verifies the authenticity of the documents.

Plagiarism

It may happen that the manuscript is not freely accessible to article indexing services due to restrictions by programmers, journals or publishers; or it is available on the journal website but not yet indexed by article indexing services. In such cases, when plagiarism check is done, the content of the manuscript that is being checked cannot be compared to the original manuscript due to the restrictions and plagiarism will not be detected.
