The Journal of Darulhadis checks for plagiarism: Submitted manuscripts that pass preliminary control are scanned for plagiarism using TURNITIN software. If plagiarism/self-plagiarism will be found authors will be informed. Editors may resubmit the manuscript for similarity check at any peer-review or production stage if required. High similarity scores may lead to rejection of a manuscript before and even after acceptance. The percentage of similarity score taken from each article, the overall similarity score is generally expected to be less than 20%.
Publication processes of Darulhadis are based on producing, developing and sharing knowledge objectively within scientific methods. The processes implemented in this direction are directly reflected in the quality of the works of the authors and the institutions that support the authors. Peer-reviewed articles are studies that ensure the application of scientific method and impartiality. In the realization of scientific production, all components of publication process (authors, readers and researchers, publisher, reviewers and editors) should comply with ethical principles. In this context, the publication ethics and open access policy of Darulhadis Journal require that all components of publication process comply with the ethical principles below:
If situations such as manipulating and distorting the data used in the articles and using fabricated data are detected, this situation will be officially reported to the institution where the author of the article works and the article will be rejected. Darulhadis Journal has the right to request the output files related to the analysis results from the authors according to the feedback given by editors and/or reviewers.
When the study prepared for publishing is produced from a book chapter, an unpublished report, and master thesis or doctorate dissertation, it should certainly be stated in Turkish and English on the first page of the study.In order for the articles produced from reports to be evaluated, the author should send his/her articles together with a contract with a wet signature stating that “My study has not been published previously and will not be published”. The reason is that duplication/ republishing/ scientific deception/multicast is a crime. According to the TUBITAK Committee on Publication Ethics, republishing is to publish or send the results of the same research to more than one journal for publishing. If an article has been evaluated or published previously, the publications apart from this are regarded as republishing.
