Originality is a baseline submission requirement. Textual reuse, unattributed paraphrasing, duplicate publication, and uncredited figure or data reuse are all editorial concerns.
What the policy covers
The policy covers direct copying, close paraphrase, mosaic plagiarism, duplicate submission, self-plagiarism without disclosure, and reuse of copyrighted material without permission. Reused methods text may require editorial judgment, but undisclosed overlap is still a problem. Editors may screen submissions before peer review and again during revision or production.
Editorial response
Depending on severity, the response may include clarification requests, manuscript rejection, institutional notification, or post-publication correction or retraction. Small citation errors are handled differently from systemic originality problems. Context, extent of overlap, and whether the reuse is disclosed all matter.
Author responsibilities
Authors should cite all borrowed ideas, quotations, data, and adapted visuals, and should explain overlap with prior preprints, conference papers, or related manuscripts where relevant. Transparency during submission is the best protection against later disputes. All co-authors share responsibility for the integrity of the submission.
