Check your manuscript for accidental plagiarism

Similarity Review Report

Have you properly acknowledged and cited other authors’ work in your manuscript? It can be hard to keep track, but failure to do so is viewed by journals as unethical and often leads to rejection. Using our Similarity Review Report is a great way to avoid accidental plagiarism.

We use iThenticate software to help you identify passages in your manuscript that could be flagged by journals for accidental plagiarism. You will receive an iThenticate assessment and a report that will guide you in making it clear in your manuscript where you are building on the work of others.

You can find more information about publishing ethics, including plagiarism, on our Author Services site.
