Plagiarism Notice

Jurnal Pengabdian Masyarakat Kaji Manuntung recognizes that plagiarism is not acceptable for all authors and therefore establishes the following policy stating specific actions (penalties) when plagiarism is identified by Kaji Manuntung anti-plagiarism software detection (we are using Plagiarism Checker X software) in an article that is submitted for publication. The article must be below 20% of plagiarism

 
Plagiarism is copying another person's text or ideas and passing the copied material as your work. You must both delineate (i.e., separate and identify) the copied text from your text and give credit to (i.e., cite the source) the source of the copied text to avoid accusations of plagiarism. Plagiarism is considered fraud and has potentially harsh consequences including loss of job, loss of reputation, and the assignation of reduced or failing grade in a course."
 
This definition of plagiarism applies to copied text and ideas:
1. Regardless of the source of the copied text or idea.
2. Regardless of whether the author(s) of the text or idea that you have copied actually copied that text or idea from another source.
3. Regardless of whether or not the authorship of the text or idea that you copy is known
4. Regardless of the nature of your text (journal paper/article, web page, book chapter, paper submitted for a college course, etc) into which you copy the text or idea
5. Regardless of whether or not the author of the source of the copied material gives permission for the material to be copied; and
6. Regardless of whether you are or are not the author of the source of the copied text or idea (self-plagiarism).
