Publication Ethics: Advances in Administration (AVITI)

Advances in Administration (AVITI) is committed to upholding the highest standards of publication ethics and integrity. We expect all stakeholders, including authors, reviewers, and editors, to adhere to these ethical guidelines to promote a fair and transparent academic publishing process.

1. Author Responsibilities:

  • Originality: Authors must ensure that their work is original and not plagiarized. All sources must be properly cited.
  • Multiple Submissions: Authors should not submit the same manuscript to multiple journals simultaneously.
  • Conflict of Interest: Authors must disclose any potential conflicts of interest that may influence the research or publication process.

2. Reviewer Responsibilities:

  • Confidentiality: Reviewers must maintain the confidentiality of the manuscript and not discuss its content with others.
  • Impartiality: Reviews should be conducted objectively, without personal bias or influence from external factors.
  • Disclosure of Conflicts: Reviewers must disclose any conflicts of interest and decline to review manuscripts where such conflicts exist.

3. Editor Responsibilities:

  • Fairness: Editors are responsible for ensuring fair and unbiased evaluation of manuscripts based on their intellectual merit.
  • Confidentiality: Editors must keep all manuscript details confidential and not use any unpublished information for personal advantage.
  • Conflict of Interest: Editors must recuse themselves from decision-making processes when conflicts of interest arise.

4. Publication Malpractice:

  • Any form of publication malpractice, including plagiarism, data fabrication, and falsification, will not be tolerated. Reports of unethical behavior will be investigated, and appropriate action will be taken, which may include rejection of the manuscript or retraction of published articles.

5. Transparency and Communication:

  • We are committed to maintaining transparency in the publication process, including clear communication with authors, reviewers, and the academic community regarding editorial decisions and publication policies.
