1. Ethical Guideline for Journal Publication

The publication of an article in a peer reviewed journal is an important part of the network of knowledge. It reflects the quality of the work of the authors and of the institutions that support them. Peer review is an objective process that supports this quality, and all parties that take part in it must behave ethically.

The publisher is responsible for the conditions under which the journal works. It makes sure that advertising or other commercial income does not influence the decisions of the editors, and it helps with communication with other journals and publishers when this is needed. The editors also take into account the legal requirements that apply to the journal, for example on libel, infringement of copyright, and plagiarism. The roles of the owner, the publisher, and the editorial team are explained on the Ownership and Management page.

2. Duties of Authors

Topic	Duty of the authors
Reporting standards	Authors of reports of original research must present an accurate account of the work and an objective discussion of its significance. The data must be represented accurately, and the paper must contain enough detail and references for others to repeat the work. Statements that are false or knowingly inaccurate are unethical.
Data access and retention	Authors may be asked to provide the raw data of the study for review, and should be ready to make the data publicly available where this is possible. The data must be kept for a reasonable time after publication. The identity of respondents, employees, informants, and organizations, and the data about them, must be kept confidential. See the Data Sharing Policy.
Originality and plagiarism	The work must be original. Any work or words of other people must be cited or quoted correctly. Plagiarism in any form, including incorrect or misleading citation, is unacceptable. See the Plagiarism Policy.
Multiple, redundant, or concurrent publication	An author must not publish a manuscript that describes essentially the same research in more than one journal. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal at the same time is unethical and not accepted.
Acknowledgment of sources	Authors must give credit to the work of others and must cite the publications that influenced the research.
Authorship of the paper	Authorship is limited to those who have made a significant contribution. Other contributors are acknowledged. The corresponding author makes sure that the list of authors is complete and correct, and that all authors have approved the final version. See Authorship and Contributorship.
Research involving participants	Research with people, for example respondents, employees, informants, or consumers, must have the permission of the institution or the organization where it is needed, and the informed consent of the participants. A participant who is a minor needs the consent of a parent or a guardian. State how permission and consent were obtained in the research method.
Disclosure and conflicts of interest	Authors must disclose any financial or other substantive conflict of interest that might influence the results or their interpretation, and must name all sources of financial support. See Conflicts of Interest.
Use of generative AI	The use of generative AI follows the Generative AI Policies. A system of artificial intelligence cannot be named as an author.
Fundamental errors in published work	An author who discovers a significant error in his or her published work must tell the editors at once and must cooperate in a correction or a retraction.
Withdrawal of a manuscript	An author who wishes to withdraw a manuscript must write to the editorial office and give the reason. A withdrawal or a retraction after publication leads to the penalty fee that is stated on the Author Fees page.

3. Duties of Editors

Topic	Duty of the editors
Publication decisions	The editors decide which submitted articles are published, on the basis of the validity of the work and its importance for researchers and readers. The review must be objective, transparent, and fair. The editors may consult other editors or reviewers.
Guidelines and the review process	The editors make sure that the instructions for authors are easy to find and to understand, and they choose reviewers who are suitable for each manuscript. See the Peer Review Process.
Fair play	The editors judge a manuscript only on its intellectual content, without regard to the race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, ethnic origin, nationality, or political views of the authors.
Confidentiality	The editors must not share information about a submitted manuscript with anyone other than the corresponding author, the reviewers, potential reviewers, other editorial advisers, and the publisher, as appropriate.
Disclosure and conflicts of interest	Unpublished material in a submitted manuscript must not be used in the own research of an editor without the written consent of the author. An editor must not handle a manuscript when there is a conflict of interest. A manuscript from an editor or a member of the editorial team is handled by an editor who is not involved in it.

4. Duties of Reviewers

Topic	Duty of the reviewers
Contribution to editorial decisions	Peer review helps the editors to make decisions, and it can help the authors to improve their manuscript. Reviews must be honest, objective, and independent.
Promptness	A reviewer who does not feel qualified to review a manuscript, or who knows that a prompt review is not possible, must tell the editors and decline the invitation. A review must be completed within the time that the editors give.
Confidentiality	A manuscript that is received for review is a confidential document. It must not be shown to or discussed with others unless the editors allow it. A reviewer must not upload a manuscript to a generative AI tool.
Standards of objectivity	Reviews must be objective. Personal criticism of the authors is not acceptable. Reviewers must give clear reasons for their views.
Acknowledgment of sources	Reviewers should point out relevant published work that the authors did not cite, and should tell the editors about any substantial similarity between the manuscript and another work that they know of.
Disclosure and conflicts of interest	Privileged information or ideas that come from the review must be kept confidential and must not be used for personal advantage. A reviewer must decline a manuscript when there is a conflict of interest.
