Publication Ethic

Jurnal Manajemen dan Teknik (JuMat) is a journal that uses the peer-review method. This statement explains the ethical behavior of all parties involved in the act of publishing articles in this journal, including the author, chief editor, editorial board, peer-reviewer, and publisher (Politeknik Krakatau, Cilegon, Banten, Indonesia). This statement is based on the statement COPE’s Code of Conduct and Best Practice Guidelines for Journal Editors and COPE's Core Practices.

 

Ethical Guideline for Journal Publication

Publishing peer-reviewed articles in JuMat journals is an important foundation in developing a coherent and respected knowledge network. This is a direct reflection of the quality of the work of the authors and the institutions that support them. Peer-reviewed articles support and embody the scientific method. Therefore, it is important to agree on standards of expected ethical behavior for all parties involved in the act of publishing: authors, journal editors, peer reviewers, publishers and the public.

 

Publisher and Editor

Politeknik Krakatau as a JuMat issuer takes trusteeship duties over all stages of issuance very seriously and we recognize ethical and other responsibilities. We are committed to ensuring that advertising, reprint or other commercial revenue does not impact or influence editorial decisions. In addition, the Politeknik Krakatau and the Editorial Board will assist in communication with other useful and necessary journals and/or publishers.

 

Publication decision: JuMat journal editors are responsible for deciding which articles should be published to the journal. The intended validation of the work and its importance to researchers and readers should always drive those decisions. Editors may be guided by the policies of the journal's editorial board and limited by legal requirements that will apply regarding libel, copyright infringement and plagiarism. The editor may confer with other editors or reviewers in making this decision.

 

Fair play: An editor at any time evaluates manuscripts for their intellectual content without regard to the author's race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnic origin, nationality, or political philosophy.

 

Confidentiality: Editors and editorial staff must not disclose any information about submitted manuscripts to anyone other than the appropriate authors, reviewers, potential reviewers, other editorial advisors, and publishers.

 

Disclosure and conflict of interest: Unpublished material disclosed in submitted manuscripts may not be used in an editor's own research without written consent from the author.

 

Reviewers

Contribution to Editorial Decisions: Peer review assists editors in making editorial decisions and through editorial communication with authors can also assist authors in improving papers.

 

Discretion: Selected referees who feel they are not qualified to review research reported in a manuscript or find that a rapid review is not possible should notify the editor and excuse themselves from the review process.

 

Confidentiality: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. They may not be shown or discussed with others except as permitted by the editors.

 

Standards of Objectivity: Reviews must be conducted objectively. The author's personal criticism is inappropriate. Referees must express their views clearly with supporting arguments.

 

Acknowledgment of Sources: Reviewers must identify relevant published work that has not been cited by the author. Any statement for which observations, derivations, or arguments have been previously reported must be accompanied by relevant citations. Reviewers should also call the editor's attention to any similarities or overlap between the manuscript under consideration and other published papers of which they are personally aware.

 

Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest: Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal gain. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have a conflict of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions associated with the paper.

 

Authors

Reporting standards: Authors of original research reports must provide an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. The underlying data must be presented accurately in the paper. A paper should contain sufficient detail and references to enable others to replicate the work. Statements that are deceptive or intentionally inaccurate constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable.

 

Data Access and Retention: Authors are required to provide raw data with respect to the paper for editorial review, and must be prepared to provide public access to such data (as per ALPSP-STM Statement on Data and Databases),where possible, and in any case be prepared to retain such data for a reasonable time after publication.

 

Originality and Plagiarism: Authors must ensure that they have written entirely original work, and if authors have used the work and/or words of others, these have been properly cited or cited.

 

Multiple, Redundant, or Concurrent Publication: An author generally should not publish manuscripts describing substantially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal simultaneously is unethical and unacceptable publishing behavior.

 

Acknowledgment of Source: Proper acknowledgment of the work of others should always be given. Authors should cite publications that are influential in determining the nature of the work reported.

 

Authorship of Papers: Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the study being reported. All who have made significant contributions must be listed as co-authors. If other people have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project, they must be acknowledged or listed as contributors. The associated author must ensure that all suitable co-authors and no inappropriate co-authors are included on top of the paper and that all co-authors have viewed and approved the final version of the paper and have approved its submission for publication.

 

Disclosure and Conflict of Interest: All authors must disclose in their manuscript any financial or other substantive conflict of interest that could be construed to influence the outcome or interpretation of their manuscript. All sources of financial support for the project must be disclosed.

 

Fundamental errors in published work: When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his or her self-published work, it is the author's obligation to immediately notify the editor of the journal or publisher and work with the editor to retract or correct the paper.
