Yes, the incorrect format of the paper will affect the result of duplicate checking. The format specification of academic papers generally has requirements, such as font, font size, margin, line spacing, directory format and so on. If the format is incorrect, it will affect the typesetting quality of the article, mislead the duplicate checking system to judge the article, and then affect the accuracy of similarity score.
Therefore, the format of the paper should be carefully checked before submission to ensure compliance with relevant specifications. At the same time, we should also pay attention to whether the format of quotations and references is correct, otherwise we may be punished by the duplicate checking system.
In addition, if there are many format errors in the paper, it will also affect the reading and understanding of the reviewers, thus reducing the quality of the paper and the evaluation results. Therefore, in the process of writing, we should pay attention to the paper format, ensure the typesetting quality, and at the same time pay attention to following the paper writing norms, such as consulting the guide, learning and drawing lessons from papers published by other colleagues.
In addition, with the continuous development of digital technology, more and more academic journals use automatic detection systems to check duplicate papers to ensure academic integrity. These systems have advanced typesetting and grammar analysis technology, which can accurately identify and correct format errors, so the correct format can improve the recognition rate of the duplicate checking system, thus avoiding the papers being misjudged as plagiarism or plagiarism.
To sum up, the correct paper format can not only improve the paper quality and evaluation results, but also improve the identification ability of the duplicate checking system and avoid the occurrence of dishonest behaviors such as misjudgment or plagiarism. Therefore, when writing a paper, it is necessary to set the layout and format in strict accordance with the relevant norms to ensure that the content and form of the paper are recognized.
