Plagiarism Guidelines
Plagiarism Guidelines for the Journal of Education and Finance Review
- Definition of Plagiarism: Plagiarism is the act of using someone else's words, ideas, or work without proper acknowledgment or citation.
- Originality: All submissions must be original work. Authors should not submit material that has been published elsewhere or is under consideration by another journal.
- Proper Citations: Properly cite all sources used in your work. Use quotation marks for direct quotes and provide a full reference list at the end of your submission.
- Self-Plagiarism: Avoid recycling your own work without proper citation. If you are including excerpts from your previous work, ensure they are correctly cited.
- Plagiarism Detection: All submissions will be screened for plagiarism using appropriate software. Similarity reports may lead to rejection or revision requests.
- Consequences: Authors found guilty of plagiarism will face consequences, including
- Rejection: The manuscript will be rejected, and the author will be notified of the reasons for rejection.
- Retraction: If plagiarism is discovered after publication, the article may be retracted from JEFR. A notice of retraction will be published, clearly stating the reasons for retraction.
- Blacklisting: Authors found guilty of plagiarism may be barred from submitting future manuscripts to JEFR. This decision will be made at the discretion of the editorial team.
- Appeals and Ethical Concerns: Authors who believe their work has been wrongfully accused of plagiarism may appeal the decision by providing a detailed explanation and evidence to support their claim. The editorial team will review the appeal and make a fair and unbiased decision.
- Acknowledgment: Properly acknowledge the work of others that has influenced your research. Give credit where credit is due.
