All articles undergo the process of plagiarism checking using modern software and plagiarism online detector “Strikeplagiarism.com” (owner “Plagiat.pl”). The system establishes similarity coefficient 1 (the percentage of text that determines the level of borrowing found in certain sources, consisting of text fragments, containing at least 5 words) and similarity coefficient 2 (the percentage of text that determines the level of borrowing found in certain sources that consist of text fragments containing at least 25 words). The recommended indicators of originality of articles are:

– similarity coefficient 1 – no more than 25%,

– similarity coefficient 2 – no more than 10%.

The editorial board of the journal takes the final decision on the presence of plagiarism or the lawfulness of borrowings found by the anti-plagiarist system.
