  2. Originality and Plagiarism: In using citations, authors must ensure that the citation is original and clearly lists the source of information. Authors are also prohibited from publishing the same research article in multiple publications simultaneously, as such actions are considered unethical and unprofessional.
  3. Acknowledgment of Sources: Proper appreciation for the work of others should always be included. Authors are obliged to cite publications used as a basis in the development of their scientific work.
  4. Authorship of the Paper: Articles should include only those researchers who have made significant contributions to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the research presented. All individuals who have made significant contributions should be recognized as co-authors. Researchers who have made substantial contributions in a particular study should be recognized or listed as contributors. The principal author is responsible for ensuring that co-authors meet the criteria for inclusion in the author list, and all authors must review and approve the final manuscript before publication.
  5. Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest: Each author is obliged to state in their article the existence of a significant financial or other interest that may influence the conclusions of the research presented.
  6. Fundamental errors in published works: If the author finds an error or inconsistency in a published article, the author is expected to inform the editor of the journal or publisher and cooperate with the editor to correct or delete the document.

EDITORS

  1. Publication decisions: The journal editor has the responsibility to decide which articles are accepted by the editorial board for publication. In making decisions, journal editors may refer to the editorial board's policies and be subject to applicable legal provisions regarding defamation, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Journal editors can also discuss with other editors or reviewers in the decision-making process.
  2. Fair play: The editor reserves the right to evaluate the quality of the content of the manuscript at any time without regard to the author's race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, nationality, or political views.
  3. Confidentiality: The responsible editor is prohibited from disclosing any information regarding the submitted manuscript to parties other than the author, reviewer, prospective reviewer, editorial advisor, and publisher.
  4. Disclosure and conflicts of interest: Content in submitted manuscripts that have not been published in journals may not be used by editors for their research without the author's written permission.

REVIEWERS

  1. Contribution to Editorial Decisions: Reviewers assist editors in the editorial decision-making process and through communication with writers, can provide assistance in improving the manuscript. Reviewers are also expected to provide recommendations to improve the quality of review results.
  2. Promptness: Any reviewer who feels that he does not have the qualifications to assess the research presented in the manuscript or to conduct a quick review should notify the editor and avoid involvement in the review process. Invited reviewers are also required to confirm their willingness or unwillingness to review the manuscript.
  3. Confidentiality: Any manuscript submitted for review should be considered a confidential document. Except with permission from the editor, the manuscript may not be published or discussed with other parties.
  4. Objectivity Standards: The review must be carried out in an objective and constructive manner. Authors are not allowed to attack Reviewers personally. Reviewers should provide clear information about the results of the review along with the underlying reason.
  5. Source Acknowledgment: Reviewers should identify relevant publications that have not been cited by the author. The appropriate citation should include references to previously published observations, derivations, or arguments. The reviewer should also communicate with the editor regarding the substantial similarities between the manuscript under consideration and other manuscripts that have been published, which are known to the editor and the reviewer.
  6. Disclosure and Conflict of Interest: Information or ideas obtained from the peer review process must be kept confidential and should not be used for personal gain. Due to potential conflicts of interest, collaboration, or other relationships with the authors, companies, or institutions involved, reviewers are prohibited from judging the manuscript.
