1. Ethical Guideline for Journal Publication
- Publication of an article in a peer reviewed journal is an important part of a respected network of knowledge. It reflects the quality of the work of the authors and of the institutions that support them.
- Peer reviewed articles support and embody the scientific method. It is therefore important to agree on the standards of expected ethical behavior for all parties involved in publishing: authors, editors, reviewers, the publisher, and readers.
- The publisher takes its responsibilities seriously. It makes sure that commercial revenue has no influence on editorial decisions, and it helps with communication with other journals and publishers where this is useful.
2. Duties of Authors
2.1 Reporting and data
| Topic | Duty |
|---|---|
| Reporting standards | Authors report original research honestly and accurately, and they discuss its significance objectively. The underlying data are represented faithfully and kept secure. The paper contains enough detail and references for others to replicate the work. A paper that gives an opinion or a viewpoint must say so clearly. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements are unethical and unacceptable. This includes the fabrication and the falsification of data. |
| Data access and retention | Authors provide the raw data for editorial review when they are asked, and they make the data publicly available where this is practicable, as described in the Data Sharing Policy. The data are kept for a reasonable period after publication. Data about employees, customers, respondents, and other participants are handled confidentially. |
| Image integrity | Images, figures, and photographs must not be altered in a way that hides, removes, or adds features. Adjustments of brightness, contrast, or color are acceptable only if no information is lost. The editors may ask for the original images. |
| Fundamental errors in published works | An author who finds a significant error in his or her published work, or who is told about one by a third party, must promptly notify the editor or the publisher and cooperate in a correction or a retraction. |
2.2 Originality and publication
| Topic | Duty |
|---|---|
| Originality and plagiarism | Authors submit only entirely original work, and they cite or quote the work and the words of others appropriately. Plagiarism in any form, including incorrect or misattributed citations, is unacceptable. Manuscripts are checked for similarity, and a statement that the manuscript is original and free from plagiarism must accompany every submission. The Letter of Originality form is available for this purpose. See also the Plagiarism Policy. |
| Multiple, redundant, or concurrent publication | Authors do not publish essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal at the same time is unethical and unacceptable. |
| Acknowledgement of sources | Authors give proper credit to the work of others and cite the publications that influenced their own work. Information obtained privately, for example in conversation, correspondence, or discussion with third parties, may not be used or reported without the explicit written permission of its source. |
| Withdrawal of a manuscript | Authors cannot withdraw a manuscript after it has been submitted to MANABIS. |
2.3 Authorship and research involving people
| Topic | Duty |
|---|---|
| Authorship | Authorship is limited to those who made a significant contribution to the conception, the design, the execution, or the interpretation of the study. All significant contributors are listed as coauthors, and others who contributed are acknowledged. The corresponding author makes sure that all coauthors are included, that no inappropriate names are listed, and that all coauthors have approved the final version and its submission. See Authorship and Contributorship. |
| Research involving human participants | The research must have the permission of the institution and the informed consent of the participants. The consent of a parent or a guardian is required for minors. The identity of participants is protected. Where it applies, the study follows the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. The Research Method section states how permission and consent were obtained. |
| Hazards and animal subjects | If the work involves chemicals, procedures, or equipment that carry any unusual hazard, or if it involves animal subjects, the authors disclose this clearly in the manuscript and state that the work complied with the relevant regulations and had institutional approval. |
2.4 Disclosure and use of AI tools
| Topic | Duty |
|---|---|
| Disclosure and conflicts of interest | Authors disclose any financial or other substantive conflict of interest that might influence the results or the interpretation of the manuscript, and all sources of financial support are stated, including the role of any sponsor. Funding is stated in the Acknowledgements. See the Conflicts of Interest policy. |
| Use of generative AI tools | Authors follow the Generative AI Policies of the journal. AI systems cannot be listed as authors. |
3. Duties of Editors
| Topic | Duty |
|---|---|
| Publication decisions | Each manuscript is reviewed by at least two expert reviewers. The editors decide which manuscripts are published, on the basis of their validity, their importance for readers, and the comments of the reviewers. Each manuscript is reviewed thoroughly, transparently, objectively, and fairly. Decisions follow the policies of the Editorial Board and the legal requirements on libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. The editors may consult other editors or reviewers. |
| Guidelines and the review process | The editors make the author guidelines easy to find and to understand. They assign suitable reviewers and explain the review process to them. See the Peer Review Process page. |
| Fair play | Manuscripts are evaluated only on their intellectual content and their fit with the aims and scope of the journal, regardless of the gender, race, religion, nationality, or political views of the authors. The policies of governments or other outside agencies do not decide whether a manuscript is published. The Editor in Chief has full editorial authority. |
| Confidentiality | Editors do not disclose any information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, the reviewers, potential reviewers, other editorial advisers, and the publisher, as appropriate. |
| Disclosure and conflicts of interest | Editors do not use unpublished material from a submitted manuscript in their own research without the express written consent of the author, and they do not use privileged information for personal gain. An editor who has a conflict of interest with a manuscript does not handle it. |
| Management of unethical behavior | The editors and the publisher respond to complaints about unethical behavior, including complaints that are raised years after a manuscript was published. |
4. Duties of Reviewers
| Topic | Duty |
|---|---|
| Contribution to editorial decisions | Reviewers review honestly, objectively, and independently. Their reviews help the editors to make decisions and can help the authors to improve their manuscripts. |
| Promptness | A reviewer who feels unqualified to review a manuscript, or who knows that a prompt review will not be possible, notifies the editor and declines the invitation. Reviews are completed within the review period that is described on the Peer Review Process page, and any extension is agreed with the editorial office. |
| Confidentiality | Reviewers treat manuscripts as confidential documents. They do not share or discuss a manuscript unless the editor has authorized it. |
| Standards of objectivity | Reviews are objective. Personal criticism of the authors is inappropriate, and the views of reviewers are supported by clear arguments. |
| Acknowledgement of sources | Reviewers check that the references are accurate and credible. They identify relevant published work that the authors have not cited, and they point out where a claim that was reported earlier needs a citation. They tell the editor about any substantial similarity or overlap with other published work that they know of. |
| Disclosure and conflicts of interest | Reviewers keep privileged information confidential and do not use it for personal advantage. They do not review a manuscript if a competitive, collaborative, or other relationship with the authors or institutions creates a conflict of interest. |
5. Duties of the Publisher and Journal Management
The publisher and the journal management are expected to do the following.
| No. | Duty |
|---|---|
| 1 | Make decisions that are free from outside interests, and make sure that commercial considerations do not affect editorial decisions. |
| 2 | Give the editors and the reviewers independence in their work, and respect the privacy of authors. |
| 3 | Protect intellectual property and copyright, as described in the Copyright Notice and Licensing pages. |
| 4 | Manage funds that come from third parties openly and transparently. |
| 5 | Support the long term availability of the published work, and promote the work that is published in the journal. |
| 6 | Disclose any conflict of interest that may affect the operation of the journal. |
6. Ethical Concerns, Corrections, and Retractions
- Complaints. Anyone who has a concern about possible misconduct in a submitted or a published article can contact the editorial office at jurnal.manabis@gmail.com. Concerns are handled under the Allegations of Misconduct policy.
- Grounds for retraction. An article may be retracted for fabricated data, for earlier publication elsewhere, for plagiarism, or for violations of ethics. A corrigendum or a retraction notice is published under the Correction and Retraction policy.
- Discussion after publication. Scholarly comments on a published article follow the procedure of Post Publication Discussion.
