Screening for Plagiarism Policy
CommNexus: Journal of Communication Dynamics is committed to maintaining the highest standards of academic integrity and responsible scholarly publishing. All submitted manuscripts are subject to plagiarism screening before proceeding to the peer review process.
CommNexus uses reliable plagiarism detection software, such as Turnitin or other equivalent similarity-checking tools, to identify potential similarities between submitted manuscripts and previously published works. Similarity reports are carefully evaluated by the editorial team by considering the context, originality, and source of the matched content rather than relying solely on the overall similarity percentage.
Manuscripts found to contain plagiarism, self-plagiarism, duplicate publication, data fabrication, data falsification, or other forms of academic misconduct will be rejected. If ethical violations are discovered after publication, CommNexus may take appropriate actions, including issuing corrections, retractions, or other necessary measures in accordance with the Core Practices of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
Authors are fully responsible for ensuring that their submitted manuscripts are original, properly referenced, accurately presented, and comply with established ethical standards in scholarly publishing.
