ANTI-PLAGIARISM SYSTEM

The articles sent to the editing office are checked by Internet anti-plagiarism system (Plagiat.pl). If an author sends his/her article to the editing office he or she automatically accepts the fact that the article can be assessed in such a context. All cases of author’s unreliability in research will be reported by the editing staff to appropriate administrative authorities.
