Publication Ethics
AEEESJ is committed to maintaining academic integrity, responsible publishing practice, and ethical standards throughout manuscript submission, peer review, editorial decision, and publication.
Authors, reviewers, and editors are expected to follow ethical standards related to originality, authorship, conflicts of interest, confidentiality, peer review, and correction of the scholarly record.
1. Originality and Plagiarism
Submitted manuscripts must be original and must not contain plagiarized material. Authors are responsible for ensuring that all sources, data, figures, tables, and previously published work are properly cited and acknowledged.
Manuscripts that contain substantial overlap with published or submitted work may be returned, rejected, or handled according to editorial procedures.
2. Authorship Responsibility
All listed authors should have made a meaningful contribution to the research work and should approve the submitted version of the manuscript. The corresponding author is responsible for ensuring that all co-authors are properly included and that no inappropriate authorship is added.
3. Conflict of Interest
Authors, reviewers, and editors should disclose any financial, professional, institutional, or personal conflicts of interest that may influence the manuscript evaluation or publication process.
4. Peer Review Confidentiality
Manuscripts under review are confidential documents. Reviewers must not share, distribute, copy, or use manuscript content for personal advantage. Reviewer comments should be objective, constructive, and respectful.
5. Research Data and Results
Authors should present research methods, results, simulations, experiments, and analyses accurately. Fabrication, falsification, manipulation of results, or misleading presentation of data is not acceptable.
6. Corrections and Retractions
If significant errors are discovered after publication, authors should notify the editorial office. The journal may issue corrections, clarifications, expressions of concern, or retractions when necessary.
