Plagiarism

The plagiarism of the article to be detected by the Turnitin plagiarism detection service. The peer-review process is at the heart of scientific publishing. As part of Journal commitment to protecting the integrity of the scholarly record, Journal feels a strong obligation to support the scientific community in all aspects of research and publishing ethics. We invest in many resources to help educate researchers on how to avoid ethical issues, to detect any issues during the editorial process, to support editors in handling publishing ethics allegations and, if necessary, to correct the scholarly record.

Note:  The plagiarism should be less than 10%. If it is exceeded above 10% the articles will be rejected in initial screening.

Peer Review Process

Critique Open Research & Review (CORR) is a double-blind peer review open access journal. Initially, the manuscript will be checked for the journal format and other necessary details as per author guidelines. The manuscript passes this initial step will be moved to the editor-in-chief for language and technical screening as per journal scope.  Once the manuscript satisfies the aim and scope of the journal will be sent to the reviewer for peer-review process. If it is not satisfied with the journal scope and aim of the journal then it is directly rejected by the editor without any further considerations. In the peer review process, the manuscript will be sent to two reviewers (Experts in particular subject areas) for evaluating the quality of the manuscript. Based on the reviewer’s comments, the editor will be given the following decision such as Accepted, Major revision, Minor revision, Rejected. If the manuscript is rejected by the reviewer then it is directly rejected without any further considerations. If the revise decision is given, the author should be asked to revise the manuscript according to reviewer comments. After receiving the revised version, the manuscript should be allotted to reviewers for final evaluation. Based on the reviewer’s second level of comments, the manuscript should be accepted or rejected by the editor. If the second revision is required then the manuscript should be sent back to the authors. If the manuscript is accepted then it will be moved to the production process after getting APC from author.

Ethics in Publishing

The publication of a manuscript in a peer-reviewed journal is a vital construction block in the growth of an intelligible and appreciated network of data. It is a straight replication of the excellence of the effort of the writers and the organizations that care them. Peer-reviewed articles care and exemplify the technical process. It is therefore significant to approve upon morals of anticipated ethical behaviour for all festivities complicated in the act of publishing: the author, the journal editor, the peer reviewer, the publisher and the society of society-owned or sponsored journals.

Ethical Responsibilities of Authors

This journal is dedicated to perpetuation the honesty of the scientific record. The journal will follow the COPE guidelines on how to deal with possible acts of misconduct.

Authors should catchphrase from perverting research results which could harm the faith in the journal and eventually the whole scientific endeavour. Preserving honesty of the study and its exhibition can be attained by following the rubrics of good scientific repetition, which comprises

• The document has not been submitted to more than one journal for instantaneous deliberation.
• The manuscript has not been published previously (partly or in full), if the new work anxieties a development of preceding work (please deliver transparency on the re-use of material to evade the clue of text-recycling (“self-plagiarism”)).
• A single investigation is not divided up into numerous parts to upsurge the quantity of submissions and acquiesced to various journals or to one journal over time.
• No data have been made-up or deployed (including images) to support your deductions
• No data, text, or theories by others are obtainable as if they were the authors own (“plagiarism”). Correct salutations to other works should be given (this comprises material that is carefully copied (near verbatim), abridged and/or rephrased), quotation marks are used for precise copying of material, and authorizations are tenable for material that is copyrighted.

Important note: the journal may use software to screen for plagiarism.

• Agreement to submit has been acknowledged from all co-authors and answerable authorities at the institute/organization where the study has carried out earlier the study is submitted.
• Authors whose names look on the proposal have donated adequately to the scientific work and therefore share cooperative accountability for the results.

In addition:

• Changes of authorship or in the order of authors are not recognized after acceptance of an article.
• Requirements to add or delete authors at revision stage or after publication is a thoughtful matter, and may be painstaking only after receiving of written endorsement from all writers and thorough clarification about the role/deletion of the new/deleted author. The judgement on compliant the change rests with the Editor-in-Chief of the journal.
• Upon appeal authors should be equipped to send appropriate certification or data in order to confirm the rationality of the results. This could be in the method of raw data, records, samples etc

If there is a misgiving of misbehaviour, the journal will carry out an examination following the COPE guidelines. If, after examination, the claim appears to raise lawful concerns, the suspect author will be communicated and given an chance to discourse the issue. If misbehaviour has been confirmed, this may result in the Editor-in-Chief’s implementation of the following actions, including, but not limited to:

• If the article is still under contemplation, it may be rejected and reverted to the author.
• If the article has already been available online, contingent on the nature and harshness of the breach, either an erratum will be located with the article or in severe cases complete withdrawal of the manuscript will occur. The aim must be given in the published erratum or withdrawal note.
