Screening Plagiarism

The editorial board of BALANCE: Economic, Business, Management and Accounting Journal recognizes that plagiarism cannot be calculated and is therefore the only part needed for publication in the BALANCE: Economic, Business, Management and Accounting Journal.

Papers must be original, unpublished, and not pending publication elsewhere. Any material taken verbatim from another source needs to be clearly identified as different from the present original text by (1) indentation, (2) use of quotation marks, and (3) identification of the source.

Any text of an amount exceeding fair use standards (herein defined as more than two or three sentences or the equivalent thereof) or any graphic material reproduced from another source requires permission from the copyright holder and, if feasible, the original author(s) and also requires identification of the source; e.g., previous publication.

The editorial board of BALANCE: Economic, Business, Management and Accounting Journal checks plagiarism using the analysis tool, namely Turnitin. Each article can only be reviewed if the plagiarism level is at less than 20%.
