Plagiarism policy

Plagiarism Prevention: IJMA uses the iThenticate software “Clarivate Analytics”, which is completely provided by EKB for IJMA, to detect instances of overlapping and similar text in submitted manuscripts. IJMA permits an overall similarity of ≤20% for a manuscript to be considered for publication. The acceptable limit for similarity of text from a single source is 5%. If the similarity level is above 5%, then the manuscript is returned to the author for paraphrasing the text and citing the original source of the copied material.
