Screening for Plagiarism Policy

Didakta: International Journal of Social Sciences, Language, and Education is firmly committed to upholding academic integrity, originality, and ethical publishing practices in all submitted and published manuscripts. To maintain these standards, every submission undergoes a plagiarism screening prior to entering the peer-review process. The journal employs reliable plagiarism detection software to identify potential similarities, overlaps, or unoriginal content.

Manuscripts found to contain plagiarism, self-plagiarism, data fabrication, data falsification, or other forms of academic misconduct will be rejected immediately. In cases where minor similarity is detected, authors may be requested to revise and resubmit their manuscripts. However, serious ethical violations will result in automatic rejection without further consideration.

The acceptable similarity index for submitted manuscripts is below 20%, excluding references, properly cited quotations, and commonly used academic phrases. Authors bear full responsibility for ensuring that their work respects intellectual property rights and that all sources are appropriately cited.

Through the implementation of this policy, Didakta seeks to uphold ethical excellence and scholarly credibility, ensuring that every published article represents an original, rigorous, and meaningful contribution to the fields of social sciences, language, and education.
