Plagiarism Statement

The Journal of Future Learning Ecosystems (JFLE) is committed to maintaining the highest standards of academic integrity and publication ethics. The journal has a zero-tolerance policy toward plagiarism and any form of unethical publication practice.

All manuscripts submitted to JFLE are screened for originality using plagiarism detection software before they are considered for peer review. The editorial team evaluates similarity reports carefully to distinguish between legitimate scholarly citations and potential plagiarism.

Plagiarism includes, but is not limited to:

  • Copying text, ideas, figures, tables, or data from other sources without proper acknowledgment.
  • Presenting another person's work as one's own.
  • Self-plagiarism, including the reuse of substantial portions of an author's previously published work without appropriate citation or justification.
  • Duplicate or redundant publication.
  • Unattributed paraphrasing or translation of previously published material.

Authors are expected to ensure that all submitted manuscripts are original works and that all sources are properly cited in accordance with accepted academic standards.

If plagiarism or other forms of publication misconduct are identified during the editorial or peer review process, the manuscript will be rejected immediately. If plagiarism is discovered after publication, the journal reserves the right to publish corrections, retract the article, notify the authors' affiliated institutions when appropriate, and take any other necessary actions in accordance with the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

Minor similarity resulting from properly quoted material, references, standard methodological descriptions, or commonly used technical terminology will be evaluated at the discretion of the editors and will not automatically constitute plagiarism.

By submitting a manuscript to JFLE, authors confirm that their work is original, has not been plagiarized, and has not been submitted or published elsewhere in substantially the same form. Authors also agree to cooperate with the editorial office should any questions regarding originality arise during or after the publication process.

JFLE is dedicated to promoting honesty, transparency, and integrity in scholarly communication and expects all authors, reviewers, and editors to uphold these principles throughout the publication process.
