CORRECTION AND RETRACTION

Jurnal Manajemen can amend an article after it has been published. The policy separates corrections, for articles that are still substantially reliable, from retractions, for articles that can no longer be relied on. While a serious concern is being examined, the journal may publish an expression of concern. A request of an author to remove an article is assessed under this policy and is not granted automatically.

CORRECTION AND RETRACTION AT A GLANCE
How to request a correction	Email jurnal.mamen@gmail.com with the DOI, the passage, the proposed change, and the reason
Who can request	Authors and readers
Who decides	An authorized editor who has no conflict of interest. The publisher carries out the decision technically
Notices	Always dated, freely accessible, labeled, and linked to the article
The published article	The DOI does not change. A retracted article normally stays available with a clear warning
Concerns about misconduct	Handled under Allegations of Misconduct

Overview of the Three Actions

Action	When it is used	What readers see
Correction	The article is substantially reliable, but it has an error that must be repaired.	A dated correction notice that is linked to the original article.
Expression of concern	There is a serious concern, and the investigation is not yet complete.	A dated notice that is linked to the article.
Retraction	The article can no longer be relied on, for example because of a serious error or misconduct.	A dated retraction notice and a clear warning about the status of the article.

Which action fits?

Situation	Likely action
A wrong figure in a table that does not change the conclusion, or a wrong name of an author	Correction
A reference or a source that was cited wrongly, or a funding statement that is missing	Correction
A serious concern about the data or about the research ethics that is still being examined	Expression of concern
Fabricated data, substantial plagiarism, or an error that destroys the findings	Retraction
A small typographical or technical repair	Version note or administrative update

Part A. Corrections

A1. When a correction is appropriate

No.	Correctable error
1	Errors in data, tables, figures, or supplementary files, such as questionnaires, interview guides, and measurement scales.
2	Wrong names or affiliations of authors.
3	Missing or wrong statements on funding, on competing interests, or in the acknowledgments. See Conflicts of Interest.
4	Errors in references or in the attribution of sources.

A correction must not hide findings that are fundamentally unreliable. When a change would significantly alter the conclusions, the journal first considers whether a correction is enough or whether another action is needed. A change in the list of authors follows the policy on Authorship and Contributorship.

A2. Requesting and assessing a correction

Topic	Rule
Who can ask	Authors and readers.
How	By email to jurnal.mamen@gmail.com. The request should give the DOI of the article, the passage that is affected, the change that is proposed, and the reason.
Errors found by the authors	Authors who find a significant error in their own work should tell the journal promptly.
Assessment	The responsible editor assesses the effect of the error. The editor may ask the authors to respond, and may obtain independent advice.
Wider concerns	When the request raises concerns about integrity, the policy on Allegations of Misconduct applies.
Agreement of the authors	The journal seeks the agreement of the authors, but it may make a necessary correction without it.

A3. Correction notice

No.	Requirement
1	The notice identifies the article, describes the error and the repair, and explains any effect on the interpretation of the article. It can be called a corrigendum or an erratum.
2	The notice is dated, is clearly labeled as a correction, is freely accessible, and is linked to the original article.
3	Substantive changes are always disclosed and are never made silently.
4	A minor typographical or technical repair can be recorded as a version note or as an administrative update.
5	For a change of name, the journal protects the privacy of the author and avoids personal details that are not needed.

A4. Implementation

No.	Step
1	When the file of the article changes, the corrected version is published together with the correction notice.
2	The change is recorded, so that readers can see what was changed and when.
3	The DOI of the article stays the same.
4	When it is needed, the journal updates the metadata of the article and informs the services that index it. See the Indexing page.

Part B. Retractions

B1. Grounds for consideration

No.	Ground
1	The findings are unreliable because of a major error, fabrication, falsification, or an inappropriate analysis.
2	Substantial plagiarism, or redundant publication that was not disclosed.
3	A serious problem with the right of the authors to publish the work.
4	A serious ethical failure, for example research without the permission of the organization or the consent of the participants that is required.
5	The assessment process of the article was compromised.
6	A major competing interest that was not disclosed.

An honest error can justify a retraction when it undermines the findings. Proof of an intent to mislead is not always needed.

B2. Decision safeguards

No.	Safeguard
1	An authorized editor who has no conflict of interest makes the decision. The publisher carries out the decision technically.
2	The evidence and the responses of the authors are reviewed under the policy on Allegations of Misconduct.
3	The following do not normally justify a retraction: allegations that are not supported, an authorship dispute alone, and problems that a correction can repair.
4	The authors can normally respond, but their agreement is not required. The protection of readers will not be delayed without limit.

B3. Retraction notice

No.	Requirement
1	The notice identifies the article and its DOI, names the party that issues the retraction, and gives reasons that are based on evidence.
2	It separates the facts that are established from the issues that are not yet resolved.
3	The wording is factual and proportionate. It does not blame a group of people without evidence.
4	The notice is dated, is clearly labeled as a retraction, is freely accessible, and is permanently linked to the article.

B4. Handling of the published record

Topic	Rule
The article stays available	A retracted article normally remains available, with a clear warning about its status and a link to the retraction notice. It is not deleted.
Exception	The full text can be removed for legal reasons, or when there is a serious risk to the privacy or the safety of participants, for example respondents, employees, informants, or minors. A notice then explains the removal.
License	A retraction does not withdraw the rights that readers have already received under the Licensing terms.
Request of an author to withdraw or to remove an article	It is assessed under this policy and is not granted automatically. A withdrawal or a retraction after publication leads to the penalty fee that is stated on the Author Fees page.

Part C. Expressions of Concern

No.	Rule
1	An expression of concern alerts readers to a serious concern that is not yet resolved, or to a serious problem that is not yet conclusively proven.
2	The notice is dated, is freely accessible, and is linked to the article.
3	When the concern is resolved, the notice is replaced or is followed by a correction, a retraction, or a statement that the concern is resolved.
4	An expression of concern is handled under the policy on Allegations of Misconduct.
