Ética de la publicación

  1. Ensure the authenticity of authorship by verifying that those listed as authors meet the contribution criteria for the article, excluding those with minimal or no participation in the research.

  2. Ensure that the manuscript submitted to the journal has not been previously published or made publicly available in any other digital or print media on Internet.

  3. Guarantee that the manuscript has not been submitted simultaneously to other journals for publication.

  4. Avoid using fictitious data in articles, presenting them as genuine outcomes from the research study. 

  5. Refrain from modifying data to fit study aims or using data manipulation to support hypotheses. 

  6. Avoid dividing a study into multiple segments solely to maximise the number of manuscripts that can be published in other journals.

  7. Ensure proper citation of texts, sections, ideas, methods, or other information taken from external or own sources to avoid plagiarism.

  8. Avoid exaggerating data in an article or artificially increasing its relevance by manipulating percentages.

  9. Present background information that supports and contradicts the study's findings to avoid bias.

  10. Notify the editor of any potential conflict of interest resulting from personal, academic, or financial relationships that may impact research and publication decisions.

  11. It is the authors' responsibility to obtain the necessary permissions for material that is not in the public domain or licensed for total or partial reproduction in the manuscript (text, tables, figures, etc.).

  12. The corresponding author is responsible for all communication, management, and publication processes with the journal, acting as the primary liaison between the authors and the editorial team.
