International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications
A guide to ensuring originality in your research and publications.
Plagiarism is a major concern in the scholar community. Even if unintentional, it can lead to paper rejection and damage your reputation. At IJSRP, we use tools like CrossCheck (iThenticate) to ensure every submission meets global ethical standards.
Rewriting someone's ideas in your own words. Crucial: Even if you paraphrase, you must still cite the original source.
Using exact words must be enclosed in quotation marks and cited with page numbers.
Always include a reference page (APA, Harvard, or Vancouver style). If you are unsure, consult an expert or a citation manager like Mendeley or Zotero.
Failing to cite sources suggests you haven't conducted a thorough literature review. It raises concerns about the integrity of your findings and can block your path to Scopus indexing.
IJSRP adheres to COPE guidelines. All papers are checked for similarity index before review.
