Plagiarism is ” representing someone else’s ideas, writing or other intellectual property as your own, and is another form of academic dishonesty. Any use of the work of others, whether published, unpublished or posted electronically (e.g., on web sites), attributed or anonymous, must include proper acknowledgement”.( York, University, Canada)

Policy on Plagiarism

When plagiarism is detected before publication, UCC staff will asking the author to rewrite or quote exactly and to cite the original source.

If the plagiarism is extensive-that is, if at least 25% of the original submission is plagiarized-the article may be rejected and the author’s employer notified of the infraction.
If plagiarism is detected after publication, the editors will notify readers of the infraction through an editor’s note in the journal, and the author’s employer may be notified of the breach.
