Plagiarism
Definition
When an author tries to present the work of someone else as his or her own, it is called plagiarism. In addition, when an author uses a considerable portion of his or her own previously published work in a new one without properly citing the reference, it is called a duplicate publication; sometimes also referred to as self-plagiarism. This may range from publishing the same article in another journal to 'salami-slicing', which is data segmentation, to adding little new data to the previous article.
Policy
The New Journal of Urology journal uses the Crossref Similarity Check program for scanning plagiarism. The articles to be published are required to have less than 20% similarity. If suspected plagiarism is found in an article either before (by reviewers or editorial team) or after (by readers) publication, the journal will act according to COPE’s code of conduct and flowcharts.
Declaration of Generative AI in Scientific Writing
Nowadays, the use of artificial intelligence in the writing of original research articles is becoming widespread thanks to the developing technological conditions. The author is obliged to follow the ethical standards regarding the use of artificial intelligence in the writing of articles submitted to the New Journal of Urology. Where authors use generative artificial intelligence (AI) and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process, authors should only use these technologies to improve readability and language. This may constitute standard plagiarism as the use of AI does not meet the criteria for authorship.
Applying the technology should be done with human oversight and control, and authors should carefully review and edit the result, as AI can generate authoritative-sounding output that can be incorrect, incomplete or biased. AI and AI-assisted technologies should not be listed as an author or co-author, or be cited as an author. The editors and reviewers of the New Journal of Urology are careful to evaluate the text in terms of the use of artificial intelligence tools that can generate references.
Authors should disclose in their manuscript the use of AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process. A statement should appear in the published work. Please note that authors are ultimately responsible and accountable for the contents of the work.
Price Policy
There is no charge for publishing, or no copyright fee is paid to the authors.
No fee is required for submitting articles, evaluation, processing or publishing process from the authors.
