PAGEPress supports ethical writing and fights plagiarism.
All submissions we receive are checked for plagiarism by using online available tools as eTBLAST, DejaVu, or iThenticate®. Any suspected misconduct ends up with a quick rejection and is then reported to the European Science Foundation and to the US Office of Research Integrity.
The European Science Foundation released a Code of Conduct on Research Integrity, which is fully supported by our journals. All authors submitting papers to our journals are required to adopt these policies.
