LITERASI: Jurnal Pendidikan Guru Indonesia is committed to upholding the academic integrity and originality of all published articles. To ensure that all manuscripts submitted are free from plagiarism, the journal applies a strict plagiarism screening policy as part of the editorial and peer review process.

The journal screens for:
Direct Plagiarism: Copying text without quotation or citation.
Self-Plagiarism: Republishing one's own previously published work without disclosure.
Mosaic Plagiarism: Borrowing ideas or phrases without proper citation.
Improper Paraphrasing: Rewriting someone else’s work too closely without credit.
Editorial Action
If plagiarism is detected:
Before publication: the manuscript will be rejected or sent back for revision.
After publication: the article may be retracted and proper notification will be issued.
Author Responsibility
Authors are fully responsible for the originality of their work and are encouraged to check for unintentional plagiarism before submission.
