Plagiarism detection

The publication attempts to detect plagiarism using Internet search engines and free software such as Plagium and Plagirism detector. It also uses the Urkund software, which is available to journals belonging to the University of Barcelona (CRAI).

These mechanisms serve to detect plagiarism taking into account the following aspects: the copying of aspects published by other authors without citing them, or the repetition of studies by the same author with a different title and without further elaboration of the work. As is obvious, the author will be prevented from publishing them in Indice Histórico Español, or they will be removed if they have already been published.

Authors are responsible for ensuring that the article is original and unpublished and has not been previously published in whole or in part, nor is it in the process of being selected by another journal or dissemination platform. If the manuscript includes references to content that has been previously published or disseminated (conferences, congresses, etc.), this must be expressly indicated. Therefore, the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) y el Código ético de integridad y buenas prácticas de la Universidad de Barcelona are followed
