Publication Practice
Authors should submit their research articles following the author guidelines as prescribed by the IRJSTEM. Research articles to be submitted for publication should not be previously published nor considered to another publication elsewhere. The author should declare the originality of the research work which had never been accepted for other journals. If modifications had been made already on the research article with enhancement on the synthesis and analysis of findings, an overlap of about 10% is considered acceptable between such journals. Copying of another’s research work without citing the original source and considering it as one’s work is an unethical practice and in the field of research and professional practice, this is completely unacceptable. Plagiarism takes place in five types: copy and paste plagiarism, word switch plagiarism, style plagiarism, metaphor plagiarism, and idea plagiarism.
