Plagiarism Notice 

Jurnal Periskop, as a respected international journal, wants to ensure that all authors are careful and comply with international standards for academic integrity, particularly on the issue of plagiarism. Jurnal Periskop strongly condemns and discourages the practice of plagiarism. All received manuscripts have to pass through a check for the similarity rate is done using CrossCheck, by ‘Plagiarism Detection Software’ powered by iThenticate test before forwarding for peer review.

JURNAL PERISKOP uses Crossref Similarity Check (iThenticate), Turnitin, and our own software to detect submissions that overlap with published and submitted manuscripts. Editors can see our Similarity Check page for more information on how to interpret these reports. The similarity tolerated by the Jurnal Periskop is 25% maximally.
Manuscripts that are found to have been plagiarized from a manuscript by other authors, whether published or unpublished, will be rejected and the authors may incur sanctions. Any published articles may need to be corrected or retracted.

We consider 'Plagiarism is a crime'. Plagiarism occurs when an author takes ideas, information, or words from another source without proper credit to the source. Even when it occurs unintentionally, plagiarism is still a serious academic violation and is unacceptable in international academic publications. When the author learns specific information (a name, date, place, statistical number, or other detailed information) from a specific source, a citation is required. (This is only forgiven in cases of general knowledge, where the data is readily available in more than five sources or is common knowledge).

When the author takes an idea from another author, a citation is required—even if the author then develops the idea further. This might be an idea about how to interpret the data, either what methodology to use or what conclusion to draw. It might be an idea about broad developments in a field or general information. Regardless of the idea, the authors should cite their sources. In cases where the author develops the idea further, it is still necessary to cite the original source of the idea, and then in a subsequent sentence, the author can explain her or his more developed idea.

When the author takes words from another author, citation and quotation marks are required. Whenever four or more consecutive words are identical to a source that the author has read, the author must use quotation marks to denote the use of another author’s original words; just a citation is no longer enough.

JURNAL PERISKOP takes academic integrity very seriously, and the editors JURNAL PERISKOP reserve the right to withdraw acceptance from a paper found to violate any of the standards set out above.
