Plagiarism Policy

The Journal of Philosophy and Social Science (JPSS) is committed to maintaining the highest standards of academic integrity and ethical publishing. Authors submitting manuscripts to the journal must ensure that their work is original and has not been previously published or submitted elsewhere for publication.

All submitted manuscripts may be checked using plagiarism detection software to identify potential instances of plagiarism, duplicate publication, or improper citation. Authors are required to properly cite and acknowledge all sources, ideas, data, and words taken from other works.

If plagiarism is detected during the review or editorial process, the manuscript will be immediately rejected. In cases where plagiarism is discovered after publication, the journal reserves the right to take appropriate actions, including issuing corrections, retracting the article, and notifying the author’s affiliated institution if necessary.

Minor similarities that result from properly cited references, common terminology, or methodological descriptions may be acceptable; however, significant copying, paraphrasing without attribution, or use of others’ work without proper acknowledgment is considered unethical and unacceptable.

By submitting their work to the Journal of Philosophy and Social Science, authors confirm that the manuscript is their original work and complies with the ethical standards and plagiarism policy of the journal.
