Duties of Authors

  1. Reporting Standards: The author must present an accurate report of the research conducted as well as important matters from the results of discussions that are objective. Researchers must present the results of their research honestly and without imitating, falsifying or manipulating inappropriate data. A scientific paper must contain information and bibliography that is sufficiently detailed to provide space for other researchers to continue their research. Fraudulent or intentionally inaccurate reporting is unethical and unacceptable behaviour. Manuscripts must follow the guidelines for journal submission.
  2. Authenticity and Plagiarism: The writer must ensure that all his writings are truly authentic. Authors cannot submit one manuscript to more than one publication journal simultaneously unless it has been agreed by the editors. Previous papers and similar publications, whether done by other researchers or the authors themselves, can be recognized and used as references. If there is major literature used, it should be written using quotation marks. If there is a statement taken directly from the results of other researchers' publications, it should be marked with the word quote.
  3. Excessive publication at the same time: In general, authors may not submit the same manuscript more than one journal published at the same time. This is intended to avoid unethical and unacceptable behaviour.
  4. Various publications born of personal research must be properly identified and the results of their publications can be used as a reference.
  5. Recognition of Sources used: Authors must acknowledge all sources of data used in the study and the results of citation publications that have influenced in determining the nature of the research. We recommend that we always provide proper recognition of the results of other people's research.

Ownership is limited only to researchers who make significant contributions, especially to the concepts, designs, interpretations of the studies submitted. As for other researchers who are equally contributing it should be written as the second, third, and so on the writer. When the largest contributor is written as the first author, the other contributors are written in the acknowledgment section. The author must ensure that all contributors have seen and agreed to the results of his work to be published and their involvement as the second, third, and so on.

Disclosure and Conflict of Interest: All writers must disclose their manuscripts, both those related to finance and conflicts of interest, which may be limited by their effect on the day of interpretation of the manuscript of his writing.
