KEBIJAKAN PLAGIARISME

“PLAGIARISM” can take two forms: 1) authors deliberately copy the work of others and claim it as their own, or 2) authors copy their own previously published material in whole or in part, without providing appropriate references - also referred to as “self-plagiarism” or “duplicate publication”.

Plagiarism before publication

EDUABDIMAS: Journal of Community Service Education will assess each case of plagiarism on its own merits. If plagiarism is detected, either by the editor, peer reviewers or editorial staff at any stage prior to publication of the manuscript - before or after acceptance, during editing or at the page proof stage, we will notify the author, ask him/her or to rewrite the text or cite the text appropriately and quote the original source. In case of extensive plagiarism - that is, if at least 25% of the submission is original/same - the article may be rejected and the author's institution/company will be notified.

When is Plagiarism checking done?

Every manuscript submitted to EDUABDIMAS: Journal of Community Service Education will be checked for plagiarism after submission to EDUABDIMAS. Plagiarism checking is done with Turnitin software and after being sent to the editor for editorial review.

How is plagiarism checking done?

EDUABDIMAS: Journal of Community Service Education uses Turnitin Software to detect the same and similar text in submitted manuscripts. Turnitin is a browser-based web service that verifies the originality of documents.

It may be the case that the manuscript is not freely accessible by article indexing services due to restrictions by the programmer, journal, or publisher; or it is available on the journal's website but not yet indexed by article indexing services. In such cases when plagiarism checks are performed, the content of the checked manuscript cannot be compared with the original manuscript due to restrictions and plagiarism will not be detected.
