Screening for plagiarism policy

Before submitting articles to reviewers, those are first checked for plagiarism, by a member of the editorial team.

Plagiarism is the exposing of another person’s thoughts or words as though they were your own, without permission, credit, or acknowledgment, or because of failing to cite the sources properly. Plagiarism can take diverse forms, from literal copying to paraphrasing the work of another. In order to properly judge whether an author has plagiarized, we emphasize the following possible situations:

  • An author can literally copy another author’s work- by copying word by word, in whole or in part, without permission, acknowledge or citing the original source. This practice can be identified through comparing the original source and the manuscript/work who is suspected of plagiarism.
  • Substantial copying implies for an author to reproduce a substantial part of another author, without permission, acknowledge or citation. The substantial term can be understood both in terms of quality as quantity, being often used in the context of Intellectual property. Quality refers to the relative value of the copied text in proportion to the work as a whole.
  • Paraphrasing involves taking ideas, words or phrases from a source and crafting them into new sentences within the writing. This practice becomes unethical when the author does not properly cite or does not acknowledge the original work/author. This form of plagiarism is the more difficult form to be identified.

Reasons for refusal

•  Borrowing without specifying a source

•  The article was already published in another edition (including electronic editions and Internet).

•  The article is framed in non-compliance with the requirements

•   A significant discrepancy in links to text.

•   Absence or incompleteness of any component of metadata / contact information / postal address

•   Absence of a review (recommendation, assignment, reference) of the scientific adviser, certified with a signature and seal (only for authors that have no academic degree).

•   Absence of UDC / JEL

•   Absence of the list of references.

•   Insufficient volume of abstract (less than 0.5 pages)

•   Insufficient volume of the list of references (less than 8 entries).

•   Categorical negative conclusion of a reviewer.

- Please note all comments provided by the editor and reviewer;

- Describe any changes in Your article in response to the letter;

- Do all additional tests that are recommended by the reviewer (if You are sure that these changes will not make Your article better, give a detailed justification, why You think so);

- In a reverse letter separately describe all the moments in which You agree with the reviewer and did not agree;

- Provide a polite and scientific justification of all the points with which You disagree;

The refusal to publish

The author can choose another journal in the following cases:

- the editor responded that the subject work does not meet the scope of the journal,

- editor to reject the manuscript without the right of re-granting,

- the manuscript was given failure even after answering all the corrections and comments of the reviewer,

- was rejected by two reviewers.
