Publication Ethics

Statement of Ethics

Jurnal Mu'allim adheres to the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) with regard to all aspects of ethics and handles cases of research and publication errors. This statement explains the ethical behavior of all parties involved in publishing articles in this journal, including the authors, Editor in Chief, Editorial Board, Reviewers and Publishers.

Jurnal Mu'allim strives to always follow the right and best practices regarding ethical aspects and handling cases of research and publication errors is one of the important responsibilities of the editorial board. All non-ethical actions are unacceptable, and we reject plagiarism in any form. As an important issue, publication ethics needs to be clarified to improve the quality of research worldwide. In the following we describe the standards for writers, reviewers, editors and disclaimer ethics. The publisher has no right to interfere with the integrity of the content and only supports timely publication.

AUTHORS

  1. Authors need to explain that the material in the article has not been previously published and that they have not transferred the rights to the article elsewhere.
  2. Authors must ensure the authenticity of the article and that they have properly cited the work of others according to the reference format.
  3. The author may not commit plagiarism.
  4. Authors must ensure that they follow the criteria for writing in the journal Mu'allim according to the established template.
  5. Authors may not submit the same manuscript to more than one journal at the same time.
  6. Authors are restricted to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, implementation or interpretation of the study. Others who make significant contributions must be listed as co-authors. The author also ensures that the writing team has seen and approved the proposed version of the manuscript and the inclusion of their names as co-authors.
  7. The author must provide the editor with data and details of the work, if there is any suspicion of data falsification or fabrication.
  8. If at any time, the author finds significant errors or inaccuracies in the submitted manuscript, the errors or inaccuracies must be reported to the editor.
  9. Journal authors should clarify anything that could cause a conflict of interest such as employment, research fees, consultant fees, and intellectual property.

  1. Reviewers will carry out their work on time and must inform editors if they are unable to complete their work.
