To ensure compliance with these requirements, the journal uses specialized software to detect textual similarities and potential plagiarism. The system checks both online sources and the journal’s internal databases.

The editorial board reviews all identified cases of plagiarism and reserves the right to reject the submitted manuscript.

Scientific articles submitted to the journal are evaluated according to the following criteria:

  • if the originality level exceeds 75%, the manuscript is admitted to peer review;

All participants in the publication process, including authors, reviewers, editors, and publishers, are required to adhere to professional and ethical standards.

Plagiarism in any form is unacceptable, considered unethical, and constitutes a violation of professional conduct in relations among authors, reviewers, editors, publishers, and readers, contradicting the principles of publication ethics.
