Publication Ethics

Artsürem Publishing follows the principles and flowcharts of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

Authors. Submitted works must be original and must not be under consideration by another publisher at the same time. Plagiarism, fabrication or falsification of data and submission of the same work to more than one publisher are not acceptable. Ideas, data and wording taken from other sources must be fully and accurately cited. In research involving human participants, ethics committee approval and informed consent are the responsibility of the author.

Editors and reviewers. Submissions are assessed under double-anonymised peer review, impartially and in confidence. Evaluation rests solely on the scholarly merit of the work. Editors and reviewers with a conflict of interest take no part in the process.

Publisher. The press safeguards the integrity of the scholarly record and investigates allegations of misconduct or malpractice in accordance with the COPE flowcharts.
