ETHICS OF SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATIONS

This section is designed to familiarize authors with the key principles and standards we adhere to during the publication of scientific works. Compliance with these principles ensures high quality and reliability of published materials.

The ethical provisions for materials published by our publishing house are based on the guiding principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) Code of Conduct, available here.

FOR AUTHORS
Principle #1. Honesty and Objectivity. Your work must be based on honest experiments and accurate data. The approach to data analysis should be objective, excluding personal beliefs or biases that could distort results. Sufficient details and references to the studies used in writing the article must be provided.

Principle #2. Transparency. We expect authors to ensure complete transparency regarding methodology, data collection and processing, as well as interpretation of results. This requirement aims to facilitate the reproducibility of results by other researchers and to maintain open scientific dialogue.

Principle #3. Authenticity and Reliability. All presented results must be authentic, without signs of falsification or distortion. All information must be reliable and verifiable. Authors should not submit or publish manuscripts that essentially describe the same research in more than one journal.

Principle #4. Respect for Intellectual Property. Properly cite the works of other scholars used in your research. Respect others' intellectual property and avoid plagiarism. Note that submitting the same manuscript simultaneously to multiple journals is unethical and unacceptable.

Principle #5. Responsibility for Content. Authors bear full responsibility for the content of their publications. Maintain confidentiality regarding sensitive information obtained during research.

Principle #6. Funding and Conflicts of Interest. Clearly indicate any funding sources for the research, as well as potential conflicts of interest. This promotes transparency in the research process. Ensure that all co-authors are informed about the choice of journal and approve the final version of the work.

FOR THE PUBLISHER
The publishing house commits to maintaining high ethical standards and ensuring integrity and transparency in the editorial process. We value our authors' contributions to the scientific community and thank you for adhering to these ethical norms.

FOR REVIEWERS
Any manuscripts received for review should be treated as confidential documents. Information or ideas obtained during the review process must remain secret and not be used for personal purposes. Reviews should be conducted objectively, with comments clearly formulated and justified.

Any reviewer who considers themselves insufficiently qualified to assess the research reported in the manuscript, or who knows that their prompt review will be impossible, should notify the editor and decline to participate in the review process.

Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they encounter conflicts of interest arising from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions associated with the manuscript.
