If I do research in similar topic and cite my first publication in second. Is it self plagiarism? My study sample is different in the first and second. Are there any specific criteria to consider for self plagiarism? Kindly answer my concern.
Yes. Citation of your previous research acknowledged again in another research without change of findings. Better way to formulate new findings or extend the previous finding in a new scenario.
If it is self plagiarism, then at least 30 -40% of published articles are having self plagiarism.
Every research article contain a very small part of other related articles. These articles are referred and details of such articles are given in the reference section.
If required, reference of previous related publication of the author may be added with the article.
It is not plagiarism. Plagiarism is stealing of intellectual property.
I don't think that there is something called self plagiarism, it is already plagiarism even from your own work. If you write two papers, each one should be unique and controlled by the citation roles in any other paper for you or for others.Therefore, if you want to cite from any reference even form you, you should consider yourself any anyone else. As well, please don't forget the copyright of your own work is for the publisher not you, so both of you and the publisher will benefit from this citation.
Self-plagiarism is the reuse of one's own previously written work in another piece of work without including reference to the previous use. Basically, writers need to let readers know that the text was previously used -- perhaps submitted as a school paper, a journal article, a blog post or other public viewing -- by properly citing those outlets.
Self-plagiarism may also be called "data fragmentation" or "salami slicing," which occurs when the author of a study separates parts of her or her study and publishes it in more than one publication.

Dr. Mabberley is publishing new editions of the PLANT BOOK at regular intervals with latest updates only. Can you call this as Self plagiarism? No way. This is a vague term in my opinion.
In my opinion, Extracting your own view from your previous article or other articles is not considered as a self-plagiarism, even citing your own article in your future articles is also not a self-plagiarism.
What was wrong with the first study that forced you to repeat your study in a second population? It may be interesting for a second researcher to repeat your study in a second research population, e.g., in a new country, in the hands of new researchers, in a new culture. Otherwise why play games?
Dear Shovana Shrestha, I have seen this kinds of problem is common in nursing students and in some public health and other faculty students as well. They want to use the same topic but with different population. Theoretically, it can be done. But we need to suggest the way of measurement of dependent variable.
It is not self-plagiarism if you have ensured that the findings from the same study are of novelty and you have properly cited all related studies mentioned in the new study.

Today while doing a review to a paper submitted to one of the health journal of Sage Publication, I found there were one 11 citation from one author, and 10 another citation from another author. After doing discussion on such a platform, first time I recommended to editor to make some attention on such types of citations. I commented to author lets try to make such a citations less if there is other options also. Lets learn by discussion and minimize our previous mistakes.
