JURNAL SKALA KESEHATAN POLITEKNIK KESEHATAN BANJARMASIN, a nationally respected journals, want to make sure that all the authors are careful and comply with international standards for academic integrity, especially in the issue of plagiarism. Plagiarism occurs when a writer draws on ideas, information, or words from another source without proper credit to the source. Even when it happens accidentally, plagiarism is a serious academic offense and can not be accepted in international academic publications. When the author learned specific information (name, date, location, number of statistics, or other detailed information) from a particular source, citation needed. (This is only forgiven in the case of general knowledge, where the data is already available in more than five sources or general knowledge, for example, the fact that Malaria is caused by Plasmodium sp.) When I take ideas from other authors, citation needed even if the authors then develop the idea further. It may be an idea about how to interpret the data, both what methodology to use, or what interesting conclusions. It may be an idea about the broad developments in the field or general information. Apart from the idea, the authors must cite their sources. In cases where the authors develop the idea further, still need to cite the original source of the idea, and then in the next sentence, the author can explain his or her ideas are more advanced. When I take the words of another writer, citation and quotation marks is required. Whenever four or more consecutive words that are identical to the source that the author has read, the writer must use quotation marks to indicate the use of the original words of other writers; just quote is no longer enough.
