Editorial Board Responsibilities

• Publication Decisions: The Editor-in-Chief and editorial board members make decisions to accept or reject a manuscript based solely on its scientific importance, originality, clarity, relevance to the journal's scope, and the reviewers' reports. Publication decisions cannot be reversed after they are issued.
• Fairness and Confidentiality: Editorial board members pledge to evaluate manuscripts based solely on their intellectual content without regard to any other considerations.
• Confidentiality: The Editor-in-Chief and editorial board maintain the confidentiality of all manuscript details and the identities of reviewers and authors throughout the peer review process.
• Conflict of Interest: Editorial board members must not use information or ideas from submitted manuscripts for personal gain. They must recuse themselves from considering any manuscript where they have a conflict of interest.
• Investigation of Misconduct: If unethical conduct is suspected, the Editor-in-Chief is obligated to investigate it and reach an appropriate resolution, even if it is discovered years after publication. This includes publishing corrections or retracting papers.
• Journal Development: The editorial board must work to elevate the journal's standing through periodic self-assessment, improving the website, and continuously pursuing indexing and archiving in renowned international databases in consultation with the journal's advisory committee. The Journal's Advisory Committee is a technical committee of national and international experts. It provides technical and scientific guidance to the editorial board to enhance the journal's academic standards.
