Plagiarism

The Journal of Religion and Social Dynamics (JRSD) is committed to maintaining the highest standards of academic integrity and publication ethics. All submitted manuscripts are subject to plagiarism screening using Turnitin or other recognized plagiarism detection software before being sent for peer review.

Manuscripts submitted to JRSD should have a similarity index of no more than 20%, excluding references, quotations, and properly cited sources. Manuscripts exceeding this threshold may be returned to the authors for revision or rejected at the discretion of the editorial team.

Authors are strongly encouraged to conduct similarity checks using plagiarism detection software prior to submission to ensure the originality of their work and compliance with the journal’s ethical standards.

Any form of plagiarism, including self-plagiarism, duplicate publication, data fabrication, or improper citation practices, is considered a serious violation of publication ethics and may result in immediate rejection of the manuscript or retraction of a published article.
