Plagiarism Policy

Taking the ideas and work of others without giving them credit is unfair and dishonest. Copying even one sentence from someone else's manuscript, or even one of your own that has previously been published, without proper citation, is considered plagiarism-use your own words instead.

Plagiarism detection

IJPDA is a member of the CrossCheck plagiarism detection initiative. In cases of suspected plagiarism, CrossCheck is available to the editors of our journals to detect instances of overlapping and similar text in submitted manuscripts.
