Plagiarism Screening

Publication Ethics

Plagiarism Screening Policy

ELOQUENCE: Journal of Foreign Language holds zero tolerance for academic dishonesty and is fully committed to preventing plagiarism in all submitted manuscripts.

???? Definition of Plagiarism

Plagiarism is an unethical act that involves using someone else's prior ideas, processes, results, or words without proper acknowledgement of the original author and source. Self-plagiarism occurs when an author utilizes a significant portion of their own previously published work without appropriate references. This includes publishing the same manuscript in multiple journals or modifying a previously published manuscript with new data.

Three Types of Plagiarism That Are Not Allowed:

01. Direct

Full Plagiarism

Presenting previously published content without any changes to the text, idea, or grammar.

02. Modified

Partial Plagiarism

Creating a mixture of content from multiple sources, where the author has extensively rephrased text.

03. Self-Reuse

Self-Plagiarism

Reusing complete or portions of pre-published research, including republishing previously published work in a new journal.

Screening Process & Similarity Threshold

The editor will run a plagiarism check using Turnitin for all submitted articles before sending them to reviewers. We do not process any plagiarized content, and articles found to have over 25% plagiarism based on the results of the check will be rejected.

???? The journal recommends using Mendeley or EndNote as reference management tools.

✍️ Author Responsibilities

Authors submitting articles to the journal are expected to ensure that they have written entirely original works. If the authors have used the work or words of others, appropriate citations or quotes must be included. In general, authors should not publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should always give proper acknowledgment to the work of others and cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work.

Adherence to this plagiarism policy is essential to maintaining the integrity and quality of the journal, and authors are urged to follow these guidelines carefully to ensure their work is properly attributed and recognized for its original contributions.
