- Authors: must submit original work, correctly cite all sources, avoid multiple submissions, and declare any conflicts of interest.
- Reviewers: must provide objective, constructive, and timely evaluations, flag ethical concerns, and respect confidentiality.
- Editors: guarantee impartiality, transparency of the process, and proceed with retractions or corrections in cases of error or identified fraud.
