Authors are responsible for ensuring the originality of their manuscripts. All submissions to the International Journal of Educational Studies and Policy (IJESP) are subject to plagiarism detection through reliable software. As part of the submission process via DergiPark, authors are required to submit a plagiarism report. The total similarity index must be below 15%. Manuscripts exceeding this threshold will be excluded from the evaluation process. The editorial board reserves the right to request the original plagiarism report when deemed necessary.
