Publication Ethics

The journal applies a strict editorial ethics policy inspired by the recommendations of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

Authors: must submit only original work, properly cite all sources, avoid simultaneous submission to multiple journals, and declare any conflict of interest.
Reviewers: must provide objective, constructive, and timely feedback, report any irregularities, and respect the confidentiality of the review process.
Editors: must ensure transparency, make decisions solely based on scientific quality, and publish corrections or retractions in cases of fraud or error.

Any misconduct (plagiarism, falsification or manipulation of data, self-plagiarism, redundant publication) results in sanctions ranging from rejection of the manuscript to a ban on future submissions, or even the retraction of a published article.
