All papers submitted to the DM are subject to examination using the plagiarism program to avoid plagiarism. Thus, plagiarism is a serious violation of publishing ethics. Trunitin is used by iParadigms, known in the academic community as Turnitin Providers. For a searchable list of all journals in the Cross Check database, please visit: https://www.turnitin.com
2. Data fabrication and falsification: which means that the researcher did not actually carry out the study, but rather formed data or results and recorded or fabricated the fabricated information. Data falsification means that the researcher performed an experiment, but processed, changed or deleted data or results from other search results.
3.  Concurrent Submission: Concurrent submission occurs when a paper (or large sections of a paper) is submitted to a journal when it is already being studied by another journal.
4.  Duplicate publication: Duplicate publication occurs when two or more papers share, without full reference, essentially the same hypotheses, data, discussion points and conclusions.
5.  Redundant publications: Duplicate publications include the inappropriate division of study results into several articles, often as a result of a desire to inflate the academic biography.
6.  Inappropriate contribution or attribution to the author: The author must have made an important scientific contribution to the research.
7.  Citation manipulation: Citation manipulation includes excessive quotations, in the presented research, that do not contribute to the scientific content of the article and are included solely for the purpose of increasing citations from the work of a particular author, or in articles published specifically for the journal. This leads to a distortion of the importance of the work and the specific journal in which it appears, and therefore it is a form of scientific misconduct.
