Plagiarism Policy

All submissions must be original and not previously published elsewhere. Additionally, submitted articles must be screened using a plagiarism detection program, and the similarity index should not exceed 20%. Relevant reports must be uploaded to the system during article submission.

For papers presented at any symposium or congress, the name, location, and date of the event must be specified. For studies supported by a research institution or funding agency, the name of the supporting organization and the project number must be provided.

Manuscripts that pass the initial editorial evaluation will be reviewed by at least two referees for content and format. If revisions are requested by the referees, the manuscript will be returned to the author for necessary modifications. It is the author's responsibility to resubmit the revised manuscript within the specified timeframe. When necessary, the revised manuscript may be re-evaluated by the referees who requested the changes.

In the manuscripts, in-text citations, references, tables, and figures should follow the APA 6th edition style guidelines published by the American Psychological Association.

The publication rights of the articles submitted to the journal and accepted for publication, as well as all copyrights after publication, belong to the EFES Journal of Sport Sciences.
