The Advances in Educational Review (AER) editorial board will use Turnitin's originality-checking software to detect similarities between article manuscripts and the published versions of those articles. The maximum allowable similarity rate for submitted papers is 20%. If the similarity index exceeds 20%, the report will be returned to the author for revision and resubmission.

Plagiarism Level

• Minor Plagiarism: A small sentence or paragraph of another manuscript is plagiarised without the use of any significant data or ideas from other papers or publications. The authors received a warning and requested to revise the manuscript and properly cite the sources.
• Intermediate Plagiarism: A significant portion of an article's data, paragraph, or sentence is plagiarised without properly citing the source. The submitted paper is automatically denied as punishment.
• Serve Plagiarism: A substantial portion of an article is plagiarised, including reproducing original results (data, formulation, equation, law, statement, etc.), ideas, and methods from other publications. The paper is automatically rejected, and the authors are barred from submitting future work.
