| Resumo: | The increasing importance of the sciences raises issues related to the validity, veracity, relevance, usefulness, accountability and sustainability of the products of scientific practice. Therefore, practices that compromise the integrity of scientific research are fundamental, both by researchers and by scientific journals. In 2016, the Brazilian Journal of Family and Community Medicine (RBMFC) refused 14 papers that had problems with plagiarism, which represents approximately 10% of the submissions of the year. We consider this a serious problem that requires greater attention and care from authors who intend to contribute to the journal. The editorial policy of RBMFC values the quality of its publications, respecting internationally accepted ethical principles and integrity of scientific research. |
