Plagiarism Policy

Authors are advised to uphold the highest standards of publication ethics. Zemin strictly prohibits any form of plagiarism, including the fabrication or falsification of data, as well as the duplicate publication of the author’s work without proper citation. Such practices are deemed unacceptable and will not be tolerated.

Submissions intended for publication undergo an initial evaluation by the editorial board with respect to ethical compliance prior to peer review. This scrutiny involves the utilization of likeness detection software, specifically Turnitin, to assess the originality of submissions and identify any potential plagiarism. The resulting likeness report is subsequently disseminated for the scrutiny of both the peer reviewers and the submitting author. The onus of content accuracy and originality rests solely with the author. Furthermore, the responsibility for securing requisite permissions for any previously published material, such as texts, tables, or images, from respective authors and publishers lies with the submitting author.
