Plagiarism Policy

Jurnal Kreasi Rakyat (JKR) is committed to maintaining the highest standards of publication ethics and takes plagiarism very seriously.

All submitted manuscripts are checked for plagiarism using Turnitin or similar plagiarism detection software before entering the peer review process.

Plagiarism Thresholds:

• Similarity below 20%: Manuscript proceeds to peer review.
• Similarity 20%-40%: Manuscript is returned to the author for revision.
• Similarity above 40%: Manuscript is immediately rejected.

Self-plagiarism (redundant publication) is also not permitted. Authors must ensure that submitted work is original and has not been published elsewhere.

If plagiarism is detected after publication, the article will be retracted and a notice will be published in the journal.
