Plagiarism Policy

Authors are advised to maintain high standards of publication ethics. Plagiarism, data fabrication and falsification, and duplicate publication without proper citation are all strongly prohibited in the JEPS Journal.

In accordance with our commitment to maintaining publication ethics, we have created a thorough policy to handle the problem of high AI plagiarism. Starting May 1st, 2023, which coincides with the release of Turnitin's AI detection capacity, all articles submitted for publication will be subjected to a full plagiarism check with Turnitin. This check will occur after submission and before the papers are delivered to the editor for editorial review.

If any overlapping or similar texts are found in the submitted publications, our journal will immediately launch an investigation. Manuscripts found to contain a high level of AI plagiarism will be regarded unacceptable and may be rejected.

By enacting this policy, we hope to ensure the originality and integrity of research published in JEPS. We encourage authors to respect academic integrity values and make ethical and responsible contributions to the progress of knowledge.
