Publication Ethics

Authors are advised to observe high standards in publication ethics. The Mesopotamian Journal of Big Data (MJBD) strictly prohibits practices such as plagiarism, fabrication, and falsification of data, as well as duplicate publication without proper citation.

AI Plagiarism Detection

In line with our commitment to upholding publication ethics, we have implemented a comprehensive policy to address the issue of AI-generated plagiarism. Starting from May 1st, 2023, with the launch of Turnitin's AI detection capability, all manuscripts submitted for publication will undergo a rigorous plagiarism check using Turnitin. This check will occur after submission and before the manuscripts are sent to the editor for review.

Investigation & Rejection

Should any overlapping or similar texts be detected, MJBD will promptly initiate an investigation. Manuscripts found with significant AI plagiarism will be deemed unacceptable and may be rejected.

Commitment to Integrity

By enforcing this policy, we aim to maintain the originality and integrity of the research published in MJBD. We encourage authors to uphold the principles of academic integrity and contribute to the advancement of knowledge in an ethical and responsible manner.
