Screen For Plagiarism

The articles submitted to Physics Education Reseaech Journal will be filtered using Turnitin, which must be below 20% of similarities.

Plagiarism includes:

Word for word plagiarism – borrowing another author’s language word-for-word but not putting the language in quotation marks nor citing it correctly.

  1. Source plagiarism – using the idea of others without giving enough recognition or mentioning the source explicitly.

  2. Plagiarism of authorship – presenting another author's work as one’s own.

  3. Self-plagiarism - authors publishing one article in more than one journal by recycling papers. The important thing in self-plagiarism is that when citing one's own work, the new article produced must have significant changes. This means that the article is a small part of the new articles produced. So readers will get new things, which the author pours over new articles from old articles.
