Plagiarism Detection and Artificial Intelligence
The journal uses the Turnitin plagiarism detection program throughout the evaluation process of texts. From November 2024, the journal will pass the article through the Turnitin program, just before its publication.
We are especially sensitive to plagiarism or self-plagiarism. The reviewers will use the different plagiarism detection programs throughout the text evaluation process. Articles with a percentage equal to or greater than 15% will be rejected, excluding references. Those authors who violate this aspect will be sanctioned with five years without being able to send articles to Retos magazine. Authors who have used artificial intelligence must indicate which applications and in which processes and sections they have been used. Likewise, all articles published by the author(s) involved will be withdrawn.
We have currently started a review of all manuscripts published in the journal Retos to detect articles that have a higher percentage of plagiarism than allowed when they were published. We started in November 2024. We will do so month by month in reverse order of publication until at least 2020. We hope to have this work completed before the end of the year. All articles that contain a higher percentage of plagiarism will be retracted for bad practices.
