Journal Communicatio Et Cultura (JCC), published by Publisher Karya Grafindo Prima Perkasa, maintains strict policies against plagiarism. All submitted manuscripts are screened using Turnitin plagiarism detection software to evaluate similarity with existing sources. Editors will review the similarity report and determine whether the manuscript complies with publication ethics standards.

A similarity report may be shared with authors when necessary.

The Editorial Board applies the following actions based on similarity index results:

  1. Similarity index above 40%
    The manuscript will be rejected due to poor paraphrasing, excessive quotation, or indications of plagiarism.
  2. Similarity index between 20% and 40%
    The manuscript will be returned to the author for revision. Authors must improve paraphrasing and provide appropriate citations for all overlapping content.
  3. Similarity index below 20%
    Minor revisions or citation improvements may still be required. All referenced content must be properly cited according to academic writing standards.

Manuscripts falling under the second and third categories must be carefully revised, particularly in sections involving quotations and paraphrasing.

All submitted manuscripts must include a Turnitin similarity report indicating a similarity index below 20% and confirming the absence of plagiarism concerns.

All manuscripts submitted to Journal Communicatio Et Cultura (JCC) are screened prior to peer review to ensure originality, academic integrity, and compliance with ethical publishing standards.
