In our commitment to uphold the highest standards of academic integrity, we utilize Turnitin, a leading plagiarism detection software, to examine all submissions thoroughly. This tool helps us ensure the originality of content and maintain the quality of publications in the Asian Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies.
How We Use Turnitin
Turnitin is renowned for its comprehensive database, which includes billions of internet sources, academic papers, and journals. When a manuscript is submitted to our journal, it goes through Turnitin's scanning process to detect any potential plagiarism. This is an essential step in our submission review process, ensuring that all published works are original and contribute new knowledge to the field.
Acceptable Similarity Index
We understand that a certain level of similarity may occur in academic writing, especially when it comes to the use of common terminology and concepts. Therefore, we consider an acceptable similarity index of 15 percent. This threshold allows for incidental similarities while effectively preventing plagiarism. It is important to note that each submission is reviewed on a case-by-case basis, and the context of the similarity is always taken into consideration.
