Anti-plagiarism policy

The Editorial Board members adhere to the principle of  COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics). In the CienciaUAT journal, plagiarism is not tolerated. Therefore, all the manuscripts submitted to the journal are reviewed using the iThenticate plagiarism detention service to determine the level of similarity with previously published material so as to avoid intended or accidental plagiarism cases (copy texts or results from other sources without giving the corresponding credits), as well as self-plagiarism actions (duplication of a substantial part of the authors’ previously published work without proper citation and making it appear as original results).

If a manuscript is found to have a high level of similarity with other publications, it will immediately be rejected, and its authors’ future work will not be accepted in this journal.
