Editorial Policies

Editorial policies serve as essential guidelines established by a publisher to define and regulate the content of publications. These standards play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the work while providing clear direction to the editing team. Editorial policies typically encompass requirements for topics, language, accuracy, formatting, and publication standards.
 

Open Access:

Open Access publishing provides authors with the opportunity to freely share their work without requiring a subscription. Published articles can be accessed, downloaded, copied, and distributed at no charge. This approach enables authors to leverage the internet to broaden the accessibility and influence of their research by making it freely available online.
 

Peer Review:

Our standard procedure involves single-blind peer review. However, authors are given the option to select double-blind peer review by excluding their names and affiliations from the paper and only including them in the cover letter.

Memberships

As a member, you will have the opportunity to publish an unlimited number of articles during a specified period for a nominal fee. Additionally, publication in an open access journal is exempt from author publishing fees, which are usually required. This offer remains valid for a number of papers as long as you are a subscriber to the aforementioned journal. Membership also includes access to various beneficial author services.

Article Processing Charges:

Open Access publications are freely accessible to people worldwide and do not require subscription fees. Therefore, authors are required to pay a one-time fee to cover the publishing house's expenses. Information about these charges can be obtained from the following link.
 

Funding Disclosure:

Funding details will be provided in the actual paper as well as in the article's online and PDF versions, only if there are any financial details to be included in this section.
 

Animal Research:

Laboratory animals must be handled with care and in compliance with established regulations. All safety precautions taken during experiments must be documented to avoid potential legal infractions. Falsified research and scientific fraud will not be tolerated, and individuals engaging in such misconduct will face severe repercussions. Copyright violations are also considered unethical and will not be tolerated.
 

Human Subjects Research:

Consent from all individuals involved in the study should be obtained only after outlining potential outcomes or any other relevant circumstances, including the consequences of the experiment's failure. Strict confidentiality and privacy must be maintained when necessary. Excessive rewards should not be used as a means of manipulating the public or individual participants.
 

Copyright and License:

We have permission to use your work under the CREATIVE COMMONS LICENSE, which allows copying and distribution as long as the creator is properly cited. The authors retain full ownership of the copyright and all publishing rights. All articles published under this license must be easily and freely accessible to the general audience and can be read, downloaded, copied, and distributed as long as the aforementioned license is strictly followed.
 

Ethics:

It is crucial that everyone involved in the publication process adheres to ethical principles. While we provide a comprehensive list of expected ethical behavior for each role, we also adhere to the standards established by COPE and ICMJE. We strongly encourage our editors, reviewers, and authors to familiarize themselves with the COPE and ICMJE websites for more information.
 

Plagiarism Detection:

To ensure the originality of papers during the verification process, CrossCheck and Ithenticate are utilized. If a paper is found to contain plagiarized material, it will be rejected, and the author will receive a report for their records.
 

Duplicate Publication:

Falsification refers to conducting research and recording it without following the necessary procedures to achieve the desired outcome. This practice is entirely incorrect.
 

Corrections to Published Work:

Any necessary corrections will be handled in accordance with COPE rules and indicated by CrossMark to maintain the accuracy and availability of current data.
 

Advertising and Sponsorship:

At present, we do not feature any advertisements in our journals. While third-party advertisements are not currently encouraged, internal adverts may be considered in the future. For inquiries about advertising opportunities, please contact us at [email protected]. We are currently not reliant on any sponsorships.
 

Figure Quality:

Detailed titles and legends must accompany figures to ensure readability and comprehension. Legends should be placed just beneath the corresponding figure.
