Publication Ethics

Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. The corresponding author ensures that all contributing co-authors are included in the author list.

Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. JAIIS uses Crossref Similarity Check (iThenticate) to screen all submissions for plagiarism before peer review.

All authors must disclose any financial and personal relationships with other people or organizations that could inappropriately influence (bias) their work. Reviewers and editors are also required to declare any conflicts of interest regarding the manuscripts they handle.
