Publication Ethics

Art Educare is committed to upholding the highest standards of publication ethics. All parties involved in the publishing process—editors, reviewers, and authors—are expected to follow ethical guidelines to ensure the integrity and quality of the journal.

Authors must ensure that their submissions are original, not under consideration elsewhere, and properly cite all sources. Plagiarism, data fabrication, and duplicate publication are considered serious violations. Authors must also disclose any potential conflicts of interest.

Editors are responsible for making fair and unbiased decisions based on the manuscript’s academic merit and relevance to the journal’s scope, regardless of the authors’ background or affiliation. They must ensure confidentiality and manage conflicts of interest appropriately.

Reviewers are expected to provide objective, constructive, and timely feedback. They should identify potential ethical concerns, including plagiarism or improper citations, and maintain confidentiality throughout the review process.

Art Educare follows COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) guidelines in addressing ethical issues and publication misconduct.
