Plagiarism Policy & Screening

Plagiarism Statement

CaLLs considers plagiarism a serious offence and will blacklist authors who knowingly cite or use material from other published works without proper acknowledgement.

CaLLs does not accept acts of plagiarism and auto-plagiarism. We will reject articles that are indicated to contain all forms of plagiarism. Every script submitted by the author will be checked for similarity using the plagiarism checker tool (Turnitin).

Similarity Tolerance & Screening Procedure

CaLLs only tolerates a maximum similarity of 20%. Every article received will be checked first using Turnitin. If the plagiarism amount is more than 20%, the script will automatically be returned to the author, and the status will be rejected/declined.
