Screening for Plagiarism Policy
Journal of Sustainable Value and Governance Review (JSVGR) is committed to maintaining academic integrity and preventing plagiarism throughout the publication process. All manuscripts submitted to JSVGR undergo a similarity check before or during the peer-review process.
The screening process uses appropriate plagiarism detection or similarity-checking software to identify potential similarities between submitted manuscripts and previously published works or other sources.
Similarity-check results are used as one of the editorial considerations and do not automatically constitute a finding of plagiarism, as similarities may legitimately arise from quotations, references, technical terminology, methodology, or other properly used material.
If plagiarism, duplicate publication, redundant publication, or other forms of academic misconduct are suspected, the Editor may conduct further investigation and request clarification or revision from the authors. In cases of serious violations, the journal may reject the manuscript or take appropriate editorial action in accordance with the journal's publication ethics policy.
Authors are responsible for ensuring that submitted manuscripts are original works, contain appropriate citations, and properly acknowledge all sources used.
JSVGR is committed to handling allegations of plagiarism in a fair, objective, and consistent manner to protect the quality and integrity of the scholarly publication record.
