Cakrawala Wawasan Kebangsaan has a very strict anti-plagiarism policy to maintain academic integrity and publication ethics. Every submitted manuscript, be it a research article, review, or other form of contribution, will undergo a careful plagiarism screening process before entering the peer review stage. The main purpose of this screening is to ensure that all published works are original and that all sources used have been properly acknowledged. This commitment aligns with the principles of scientific honesty and best practices in academic publishing.
To conduct plagiarism screening, Cakrawala Wawasan Kebangsaan utilizes leading text similarity detection software, such as Turnitin or iThenticate. This software automatically compares the content of the submitted manuscript with an extensive database that includes other scientific journals, web publications, and academic databases. The results of this screening will indicate the percentage of text similarity and highlight sections that may constitute potential plagiarism. The editors will carefully review this report. If an unacceptable level of similarity is detected, or clear indications of plagiarism are found, the manuscript will be immediately rejected, and the authors will be informed of the ethical violation.
This plagiarism screening policy also covers self-plagiarism or duplicate publication, where authors reuse significant portions of their own previously published work without adequate citation. Cakrawala Wawasan Kebangsaan emphasizes the importance of proper citation for all sources, whether they are the works of others or the authors' own previously published works. By implementing these comprehensive screening measures, Cakrawala Wawasan Kebangsaan is committed to maintaining high standards of academic integrity and ensuring that every published article is a unique and authentic contribution to the scientific literature.
