Crossmark Policy

Ensuring Scholarly Content Integrity, Transparency, and Permanence

Journal Economic Business Innovation (JEBI) is committed to maintaining the integrity, authenticity, and permanence of all scholarly content it publishes. To fulfill this commitment, JEBI implements CrossMark, a CrossRef initiative designed to allow readers to easily identify the current status of published articles and verify their authenticity. By adopting CrossMark, JEBI ensures transparency, ethical publishing, and continuous accessibility for the global academic community.

What is CrossMark?

CrossMark is a multi-publisher service that provides a standardized mechanism for readers to identify and access the most authoritative, up-to-date version of scholarly work. It ensures that corrections, updates, or retractions are clearly communicated to maintain academic trust.

How CrossMark Works

Clicking the CrossMark logo on PDF or HTML versions of JEBI articles redirects readers to a detailed status page. This page provides information on corrections, updates, retractions, and editorial notices. It guarantees access to the verified “version of record” and ensures transparency of the publication history.

Types of Updates Covered

  • Corrections: Minor (e.g., typos, formatting) and major (impacting conclusions) amendments to the article.
  • Retractions: Formal withdrawal of the article due to unreliable data, academic misconduct, or serious ethical violations.
  • Updates & Addenda: Additional information, clarifications, or supplementary data appended after publication.

Accessing Document Updates

Readers can verify an article's status by clicking the CrossMark logo to see the current version, a full history of any changes, explanations, and links to related notices. This process ensures clarity and confidence in scholarly communication.

Policy on Record Maintenance

JEBI guarantees indefinite access to all versions of published content. Any updates are accompanied by clear editorial notices, ensuring the publication record is fully transparent and traceable.

Transparency and Scholarly Integrity

By adopting CrossMark, JEBI demonstrates its commitment to ethical publishing, academic transparency, and integrity. Researchers, institutions, and readers can trust the validity and accuracy of all published content.
