问题: 编辑说我的论文是抄袭的,我可以提出质疑吗?
问题描述
在投稿之前,我已经用查重软件 Plagscan 检查过,当时报告显示重复内容太高,所以我已经全部修改过了。但期刊编辑说我的论文在 iThenticate 显示有 23% 的重复率,这是因为软件不同的关系吗?期刊没有把报告发给我,我能对期刊提出质疑吗? 下面是编辑的邮件: Dear Author, Thank you for sending your above paper for possible publication. Although it was felt that your research was quite interesting, we are publishing only the most highly rated papers for publication in order to maintain our high rankings and impact factor. Those papers that aren't accepted typically could improve in a number of areas such as a more thorough discussion of the design, development, testing and evaluation results; clarifying the key significance of the research contribution; novelty of the subject and its impact; making sure the references are the most recent in your paper's research field of relevance; ascertaining that the research fits the aims and scope of the journal etc. We appreciate your interest in the journal. Moreover, based on iThenticate (plagiarism software) report, your paper has been found very similar with already published material (>%23 similar). Similarity with the following reference is especially high: Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture http://pib.sagepub.com/A hybrid approach for multi-weapon production planning with large-dimensional multi-objective in defense manufacturing

回答:
据我说知,期刊通常只提供内容重复率以及被认为相似内容的来源,目前还没有看过期刊提供详细的查重报告给作者,因此我不建议你向期刊编辑索取查重报告。
我也觉得你不要根据 Plagscan 的报告来质疑期刊的决定。我是这么想的:
- 期刊并没有说抄袭是造成拒稿的唯一原因
- 你的查重结果论点不够有力,期刊是遵循他们的政策,有可能不会接受 Plagscan 的查重结果。如果你当初用的是 iThenticate,还比较站得住脚。
- 不同查重软件显示不同的结果不意外,这里有个事例:http://copy-shake-paste.blogspot.in/2011/06/plagiarism-detection-software-and-zu.html
就我来看,最好的办法是人工比对期刊提供的来源与论文内容的相似度,然后尽可能再修改论文内容,你可以在修改后再用查重软甲再检查一次,之后再改投别的期刊。
