Publication Ethics (for recent update, please check: ijge.camdemia.ca/publication-ethics) The
publication of an article in a
peer-reviewed journal is an essential
component in research and in building knowledge base in the discipline.
It is a direct reflection of the quality of
work of the author and the organizations
that
support them. Peer-reviewed articles support
and embody the scientific methods. It is
therefore important to follow
internationally acceptable standards
of expected ethical behavior for all
parties involved in the act of publishing: the
author, the journal editor, the peer reviewer
and
the publisher.
Malpractice Policy For authors, if there is an evidence or a reasonable belief of violation of IJGE policies and the Terms and Conditions, the manuscript will be automatically rejected. If a paper has already been published, it will be removed from the journal with a notice to the public on the journal website stating "this paper has been removed from the journal due to violation to IJGE policies". In severe case, the authors' names may also be revealed. For anyone who is involved in reviewing, editing and publishing, if there is evidence or reasonable belief of violation of IJGE policies, the individual will be subject to disciplinary actions, from suspension to removal, depending on the situation. |
