Plagiarism Policy

Commitment to Originality and Academic Integrity

Jurnal Farmasi Teknologi Sediaan dan Kosmetika (JFTSK) states that plagiarism is unacceptable for all authors. Therefore, JFTSK establishes this policy to define the actions that may be taken when plagiarism is identified in a manuscript submitted for publication.

JFTSK uses Turnitin as plagiarism and similarity detection software. The similarity report is used as an editorial screening tool and is evaluated together with the content, citation practices, and context of the manuscript.

Definition

What Is Plagiarism?

Plagiarism is the use of another person's words, ideas, data, arguments, or other intellectual contributions without proper acknowledgement and presenting such material as one's own work.

To avoid plagiarism, copied or substantially reproduced material must be clearly distinguished from the author's original work, and appropriate credit must be given through proper citation and acknowledgement of the original source. Plagiarism constitutes a serious violation of academic and publication ethics.

Scope of the Plagiarism Definition

This definition applies to copied text, ideas, data, and other intellectual material regardless of the following circumstances:

01. Regardless of the source of the copied text, data, or idea.
02. Regardless of whether the author of the original material may have obtained the same material from another source.
03. Regardless of whether the authorship of the copied material is known or unknown.
04. Regardless of the type of publication or document into which the copied material is incorporated, including journal articles, books, web pages, reports, theses, dissertations, or academic assignments.
05. Regardless of whether permission has been granted to reproduce the material when appropriate citation and acknowledgement are still required.
06. Regardless of whether the author is also the author of the previously published source, including inappropriate duplication or self-plagiarism.

Editorial Actions on Plagiarism

Actions are determined according to the nature and extent of detected plagiarism

When potential plagiarism is identified through plagiarism detection software or editorial assessment, the Editorial Board will evaluate the manuscript and determine appropriate action based on the extent and seriousness of the issue.

Level 1

Minor Plagiarism

Minor plagiarism occurs when a small sentence, phrase, or short paragraph from another work is reproduced without proper citation, but no significant data, findings, or original ideas have been taken from the source.

Editorial Action: The author(s) will receive a warning and will be requested to revise the manuscript, rewrite the affected section, and properly cite the original source.
Level 2

Intermediate Plagiarism

Intermediate plagiarism occurs when significant data, paragraphs, sentences, interpretations, or other substantive content from another publication are reproduced without appropriate citation or acknowledgement of the original source.

Editorial Action: The submitted manuscript will be rejected.
Level 3

Severe Plagiarism

Severe plagiarism occurs when a substantial portion of a manuscript is copied or reproduced, including original results, data, formulations, equations, statements, concepts, ideas, methods, or other significant intellectual contributions previously presented in another publication.

Editorial Action: The manuscript will be rejected. In serious cases, the author(s) may also be prohibited from submitting further manuscripts to JFTSK in accordance with the decision of the Editorial Board.
