Plagiarism Policy

Plagiarism is not allowed in JPBPP. Plagiarism means taking words, ideas, pictures, or data from someone else including from your own previous work without giving credit to the original source. If you use text from another source, you must put it in quotation marks and clearly cite the source. If your research design, paper structure, or writing style is influenced by other studies, you must also cite those studies. All papers submitted to JPBPP are checked using Turnitin. If plagiarism is found, the journal will investigate the case and handle it according to its policies and the guidelines of COPE.
