Plagiarism policy

Plagiarism is the act of using someone else's work without giving them credit. It is a serious offense that can lead to the rejection of a paper, the retraction of a published paper, and even disciplinary action.

Annals of Business Analytics (ABA) has a zero-tolerance policy on plagiarism. All submitted papers will be checked for plagiarism using plagiarism detection software. If plagiarism is found, the paper will be rejected without review. The maximum limit of similarity in a paper should be less than 19% and maximum 5% from a single source.

Authors are responsible for ensuring that their papers are free of plagiarism. They should cite all sources that they have used in their paper, and they should avoid copying or paraphrasing the work of others without giving credit.

If an author is found to have plagiarized, they will be asked to withdraw their paper from ABA. They may also be banned from submitting papers to ABA in the future.

Here are some useful tips for avoiding plagiarism:

• Always cite your sources. This means providing the author, title, and publication information for any work that you use in your paper.
• Do not copy or paraphrase the work of others without giving credit. If you use someone else's words, put them in quotation marks and cite the source.
• Use your own words and ideas. Do not simply rewrite the work of others.
• If you are unsure about whether or not something is plagiarism, ask your advisor or another trusted colleague.

By following these tips, you can help ensure that your papers are free of plagiarism and that they meet the high standards of ABA.
