Plagiarism Policy

All candidate manuscripts must be scanned with software such as iThenticate© and Turnitin© before submission to OJCES and these scan reports must be submitted with the manuscript. The similarity rate of the whole article should be less than 25% (including bibliography) and the similarity rate for a single source should be less than 3%. Nevertheless, it is in the best interest of the author(s) to scrutinize similarities above 1%. OJCES reserves the right to reject at the editorial stage any candidate manuscript that contains academic plagiarism.
