Publication Ethics

Ethical Guidelines for Publication of SeBaSa Journal

The publication of an article in The Journal of SeBaSa is an important building in the development of a coherent and recognized knowledge network. It is a direct reflection of the quality of the author's work and the institutions that support them. The reviewed articles support and embody the scientific method. Therefore, it is important to agree on the expected standards of ethical conduct for all parties involved in the act of publishing: authors, journal editors, bestari partners, publishers, and the public.

Hamzanwadi University as the publisher of SeBaSa Journal takes the task of maintaining all stages of publishing very seriously and we are aware of our ethics and other responsibilities. We are committed to ensuring that advertising, reprinting, or other commercial revenue does not impact or influence editorial decisions. In addition, Hamzanwadi University and the Editorial Board will assist in communication with other journals and/or publishers, which is useful and necessary.

Publication Decision

 The editor of SeBaSa Journal is responsible for deciding which sent articles to publish. Validation of such work and its importance to researchers and readers should always drive those decisions. The editors may be guided by the policies of the journal's editorial board and limited by applicable legal provisions, such as defamation, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Editors can confer with other editors or bestari partners in making this decision.

Aspects of Justice

Editors at all times evaluate the manuscript for the intellectual content of the author regardless of the race, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ethnicity, nationality, or political views of the authors.

Concealment

The editor and any editorial staff shall not disclose any information about the manuscript sent to anyone other than the author, reviewer, prospective reviewer, other appropriate editorial board, and publisher, as appropriate.

Disclosure and Conflict of Interest

Unpublished material in a submitted manuscript should not be used in the editor's own research without the author's written consent.

Reviewer Task

Contributions to Editorial Decisions

Bestari partners assist editors in making editorial decisions and can assist authors in improving the quality of manuscripts through editors.

Speed

Any selected reviewer who feels unqualified/interested in reviewing the manuscript or does not have enough time to study should immediately notify the editor and withdraw from the review process.

Concealment

Any manuscript accepted for review should be treated as a confidential document. Manuscripts should not be distributed or discussed with others unless permitted by the editor.

Objectivity Standards

The review should be done objectively. Personal criticism from the author is inappropriate to convey. Reviewers should state their views clearly with supportive arguments.

Source Recognition

Reviewers must identify relevant published works that have not been cited by the author. A statement that an observation, derivation, or argument has been reported in advance must be accompanied by a relevant citation. Reviewers should also declare to the editor if there are substantial similarities or overlaps between the manuscript under consideration and any other articles published.

Disclosure and Conflict of Interest

Information or ideas obtained in the review process must be kept confidential and not used for personal gain. Reviewers should reject manuscripts where they have a conflict of interest resulting from competition, collaboration, or other relationships and connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions related to the manuscript.

Author's Task

Reporting Standards

The author of the original research report should present an accurate report of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of the significance of his research. The underlying data must be accurately included in the manuscript. A manuscript should contain sufficient detail and references to allow others to imitate the work. Reports of fraud or intentionally providing inaccurate information constitute unethical and unacceptable behavior.

Data Access and Retention

Authors are required to provide raw data related to manuscripts for editorial, and should be prepared to provide public access to such data, where possible, and should in any case be able to retain such data after publication.

Originality and Plagiarism

Authors must ensure that they have written a completely original work, and if the author has used the work and/or words of others, then this has been appropriately cited.

Dual, Redundant and Concurrent Publications

An author may not publish a manuscript that lays out the essence of the same research in more than one major journal or publication. Sending the same manuscript to more than one journal simultaneously constitutes unethical and unacceptable publishing behavior.

Source Recognition

Proper recognition of the work of others should always be given. The author should cite publications that have been influential in determining from the work he reports.

The Author's Manuscript Author's List
should be limited only to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, implementation, or interpretation of the reported research. All persons who have made a significant contribution should be listed as an aide author. Other persons or parties who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project, they must be recognized or registered as contributors. The author of the correspondence shall ensure that all appropriate authors are listed in the manuscript and that no authors are unsuitable, and that all authors have seen and agreed to the final version of the paper and have agreed to submit for publication.

Hazards and Human or Animal

Subjects If the work involves chemicals, procedures or equipment that have unusual dangers inherent in their use, the author should clearly identify this in the manuscript.

Disclosure and Conflict of Interest

All authors must disclose in their manuscript any conflicts of interest either substantive or financial that may be construed to influence the results or interpretation of their manuscript. All sources of financial support for the project must be disclosed.

Fundamental Errors in Published Works
