(IJP) Indonesia Jurnal Perawat

The publication ethics implemented by IJP (Indonesia Jurnal Perawat) refer to the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics, encompassing publication ethics for authors, editors, and reviewers.

 

PUBLICATION ETHICS – AUTHORS

1. Reporting Standards
   Reports of community service activities that have been carried out must be prepared and presented accurately, with objective and meaningful discussion. The underlying data must be represented accurately. Articles should contain sufficient detail and references to enable others to replicate the activities.

2. Originality and Plagiarism
   Authors must ensure that the entire content of the submitted article is original scholarly work with a very low level of similarity to articles written by other authors. If authors refer to the work and/or words of others, they must provide proper citations.

3. Multiple, Redundant, or Overlapping Publication
   Authors are not permitted to submit articles that essentially describe the same activity to more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript simultaneously to more than one journal constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable.

4. Acknowledgment of Sources
   Proper acknowledgment of the work of other authors must always be given. Authors should cite publications that have significantly influenced the nature of the reported work.

5. Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
   Authors must disclose any financial or other substantive conflicts of interest that may influence the results or interpretation of the submitted article. All sources of financial support should also be disclosed.

6. Fundamental Errors in Published Works
   When authors discover significant errors or inaccuracies in a submitted or published work, they must promptly notify the editor-in-chief or publisher and cooperate with the editor to retract or correct the article.

 

PUBLICATION ETHICS – EDITORS

1. Fair Treatment
   The editorial board evaluates submitted manuscripts without regard to the authors’ race, gender, sexual orientation, beliefs/religion, ethnic origin, nationality, or political philosophy.

2. Confidentiality
   The editorial board must not disclose any information about submitted manuscripts to anyone other than reviewers, potential reviewers, members of the advisory board, and other relevant parties involved in the publication process.

3. Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
   Unpublished materials contained in submitted manuscripts must not be used for the personal benefit of the editorial board without the written consent of the author.

4. Editorial Board Criteria
   Members of the editorial board, both local and international, should have a Scopus ID or have published articles in reputable international journals. The editorial board may assist reviewers by providing input on manuscripts in addition to the reviewers’ own assessments.

5. Publication Decisions
   The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for deciding which manuscripts will be published, taking into consideration the interests of authors and readers. The Editor-in-Chief may seek input from the editorial board regarding applicable legal requirements concerning defamation, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. The Editor-in-Chief may also consult with the editorial board or reviewers in making such decisions.

6. Manuscript Review
   The Editor-in-Chief must ensure that every manuscript is checked for originality. The editorial board selects reviewers fairly and wisely. The editorial board explains the peer-review process to authors through the manuscript review mechanism. Reviewers selected for each manuscript should have appropriate expertise and no conflicts of interest.
PUBLICATION ETHICS – REVIEWERS

1. Contribution to Editorial Decisions
   Reviewers assist the editorial board in making publication decisions and may also help authors improve their manuscripts.

2. Reviewer Criteria
   Reviewers, both local and international, should have published articles in reputable international journals. Reviewers should have previously published work on the same topic as the manuscript under review or have community engagement experience in a related field.

3. Standards of Objectivity
   Reviewers must conduct reviews objectively. Personal criticism of the author is inappropriate. Reviewers should provide clear comments supported by sound arguments.

4. Confidentiality
   Manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Reviewers must not share or discuss the manuscript with others unless authorized by the editorial board.

5. Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
   Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should not evaluate manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest arising from competition, collaboration, or other relationships or connections with the authors, companies, or institutions associated with the manuscript.

6. Acknowledgment of Sources
   Reviewers should identify relevant published work that has not been cited by the authors. Any statement, observation, derivation, or argument previously reported should be accompanied by the appropriate citation. Reviewers may also alert the editorial board to any substantial similarity or overlap between the manuscript under review and other published works.

7. Review Timeframe
   Reviewers are expected to complete the review within two weeks to one month (maximum). Each manuscript should be reviewed by a minimum of one reviewer and a maximum of two reviewers.

Each manuscript submitted by authors to IJP (Indonesia Jurnal Perawat) is subject to a publication fee of IDR 450,000.

The Editorial Board will ensure that every published article does not exceed a 25% similarity index (plagiarism threshold). Plagiarism screening will be conducted by the Editorial Board using StrikePlagiarism.

Each article submitted to IJP (Indonesia Jurnal Perawat) is recommended to use reference management software such as Mendeley, EndNote, Zotero, and others.
