Our Commitment

Sophist wants to ensure that all authors exercise due care and adhere to international standards of academic integrity, particularly regarding plagiarism. Plagiarism occurs when an author takes ideas, information or words from another source without properly crediting that source. Even if unintentional, plagiarism remains a serious academic offence and is unacceptable in international academic publications.

When a Citation Is Required

1

Specific information

Names, dates, places, statistics or other detailed information taken from a specific source must be cited. This is only excused for common knowledge, where the data is readily available in more than five sources (for example, that Indonesia is the most populous Muslim country in the world).

2

Ideas of others

An idea taken from another author must be cited even if it is developed further, whether it concerns interpreting data, methodology, conclusions or broad developments in a field. Cite the original source first, then explain the developed idea in the following sentence.

3

Words of others

Taking another author's words requires a citation and quotation marks. Whenever four or more consecutive words are identical to a source, use quotation marks to show they are the original author's words; a citation alone is not sufficient.

Withdrawal and Contact

Withdrawal Sophist upholds academic integrity, and the editors reserve the right to withdraw any manuscript found to violate any of the standards above.
