All manuscripts submitted to the Research Journal of Le Cordon Bleu University are screened with plagiarism-detection software. The tool used is Turnitin/iThenticate.

Only articles with a similarity index of up to 18%—including recycled text (self-plagiarism)—will be accepted. Articles exceeding this threshold will be returned to the author with an explanation.

If any false, erroneous, misleading, or fraudulent information is detected, the Scientific Editor will notify the authors and await an immediate response before making an editorial decision. The Scientific Editor, together with the Editorial Director and the Editorial Board, may decide to retract a published article.

Any complaints regarding published content may be sent to revista.cientifica@ulcb.edu.pe.
