Publication Ethics
The journal adheres to the principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and enforces strict scientific integrity.
- Authors: must submit original work, cite sources properly, avoid multiple submissions, and declare conflicts of interest.
- Reviewers: must provide objective, constructive, and confidential feedback within the required timeframe.
- Editors: must ensure process transparency, impartiality of decisions, and issue corrections or retractions in cases of fraud or error.
Prohibited practices such as plagiarism, self-plagiarism, falsification, or duplicate submissions result in sanctions ranging from immediate rejection to retraction of published articles.
