Publication Ethics

Researcher Academy Innovation Data Analysis (RAIDA)

Commitment to integrity, transparency, accountability, and research publication ethics.

Core Principles

Researcher Academy Innovation Data Analysis (RAIDA) is committed to maintaining high ethical standards in scholarly publishing. This publication ethics policy is aligned with the principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and international best practices for responsible research dissemination, peer review, editorial decision-making, and publication integrity.

“All parties involved in the publication process—authors, editors, reviewers, and publisher—must uphold honesty, confidentiality, fairness, transparency, accountability, and respect for academic integrity.”

IntegrityAll manuscripts must represent honest, accurate, and original scholarly work.

TransparencyAuthors must disclose funding, conflicts of interest, data use, and AI assistance.

Fair ReviewManuscripts are evaluated objectively through editorial screening and peer review.

AccountabilityCorrections, retractions, and misconduct cases are handled responsibly.

Duties of Authors

Originality and Plagiarism

Authors must ensure that submitted manuscripts are original, unpublished, and not under consideration elsewhere. Plagiarism, self-plagiarism, duplicate publication, and inappropriate text recycling are not acceptable. RAIDA may use Turnitin or other similarity-checking tools as part of editorial screening. Citations and references should follow RAIDA guidelines and APA 7th Edition where applicable.

Authorship and Contribution

Authorship must be limited to individuals who have made substantial contributions to the conception, design, data collection, analysis, interpretation, writing, or revision of the manuscript. All authors must approve the final version and agree to its submission. Ghost authorship, guest authorship, gift authorship, and authorship manipulation are prohibited. RAIDA encourages authors to describe contributions using CRediT roles.

Data Integrity and Research Ethics

Data fabrication, falsification, selective reporting, image manipulation, and misleading analysis are strictly forbidden. Research involving human participants, animals, health data, institutional data, or sensitive information must include appropriate ethical approval, consent, or permission statements. Authors may be asked to provide raw data, research instruments, or supplementary materials during review.

Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest

Authors must disclose any financial, institutional, personal, academic, or other relationships that could influence the results or interpretation of the manuscript. All funding sources, sponsorship, and institutional support must be clearly stated.

Use of Generative AI and Digital Tools

Authors must transparently disclose the use of generative AI tools or automated writing, translation, coding, analysis, or image-generation tools. AI tools must not be listed as authors. Authors remain fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, citations, data integrity, and ethical compliance of all content submitted to RAIDA. Authors should follow the COPE position statement on authorship and AI tools.

Duties of Editors

Fair Play: Editorial decisions are based on academic merit, originality, validity, relevance, and clarity without discrimination based on nationality, gender, religion, political belief, ethnicity, seniority, or institutional affiliation.
Confidentiality: Editors and editorial staff must not disclose information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, potential reviewers, editorial advisers, and publisher where appropriate.
Conflict of Interest: Editors must recuse themselves from handling manuscripts where they have personal, financial, academic, or collaborative conflicts of interest.
Editorial Accountability: Editors are responsible for maintaining the integrity of the review process, handling appeals, corrections, and suspected misconduct in accordance with ethical standards.

Duties of Reviewers

Contribution: Reviewers assist editors in making decisions and help authors improve manuscripts through constructive, specific, and respectful feedback.
Confidentiality: Manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents and must not be shared, discussed, or used for personal advantage.
Objectivity: Reviews must be conducted objectively and supported by clear arguments. Personal criticism of authors is inappropriate.
Promptness: Reviewers who feel unqualified, unavailable, or conflicted must notify the editor promptly and decline the invitation where necessary.
Ethical Alert: Reviewers should alert the editor to suspected plagiarism, duplicate publication, data concerns, ethical issues, or undisclosed conflicts.
