PUBLICATION ETHICS

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

The IABE has a responsibility to provide only quality academic research articles to the public.

In order to ensure the credibility of scientific articles published in our journals, it is necessary to pay special attention to any conflicts of interest that may arise in the process of publishing. Conflicts of interest can occur when a person (author, editor, or reviewer) is impeded from acting impartially because of a relevant personal, financial, intellectual, or political relationship with another person or organization. IABE requires all authors, editors, and reviewers to declare any conflicts of interest that may affect their decisions.

Authors
At the moment of submission, authors are responsible for recognizing and disclosing any conflicts of interest. Authors must specify all potential conflicts of interest, including personal or financial affiliations and relationships with persons or organizations that funded or otherwise supported the research, including persons who collected or processed data.

Editors
Editors will disclose any potential conflict of interest related to their activity for the journal. They will not be involved in any decisions related to the article in which a conflict of interest exists. If necessary, editors will require statements about conflicts of interest from the authors. The editors will not be influenced in their decisions regarding any manuscript by IABE.

Reviewers
If a reviewer identifies a potential conflict of interest, he or she will inform the editor about this situation and will not continue to review the manuscript.

If for any reason, a conflict of interest occurs, all persons in this situation must present detailed information about:

• Type of conflict of interest (affiliation, funding sources, financial interest, etc.)

• Name of the person or organization with a relevant relationship to the person (author, editor, or reviewer)

• Type of relationship (personal, financial, intellectual, political, etc.)

When a conflict of interest is disclosed, the article must contain a phrase that describes the conflict.

PLAGIARISM

Plagiarism represents a violation of academic ethics and one aim of IABE is to eliminate unethical behavior.

Plagiarism represents the exposure in a scientific research of paragraphs, ideas, data, procedures, methods, theories or scientific results derived from other scientific research papers, without mentioning this and without making any reference to the original sources or intellectual property of the author.

Self-plagiarism occurs in situations when the content of an article shows similar content to other articles written by the same author.

Authors may use information from outside sources, provided that complete information is given about each source. In presenting information from an outside source, authors must use one of the following methods:

• For citation, use quotation marks for paragraphs taken verbatim from a source and then give detailed information about the source of the quote.

• For paraphrase of concepts, major ideas, or a summary phrase in the author’s own words, the paraphrase must be followed by an indication of the source or sources used.

Each source citation must include:

• A mention of all cases where parts of the authors’ scientific research used another source

• Source information about table, graphs and figures when these are imported from other sources

• Complete information about the source (author, title, name of publication, number, volume, pages, date of publication)

• In the bibliography, a complete list of all sources used in the research. Authors can use different types of sources, such as printed sources (books, magazines, journals, articles, etc.) and electronic sources (websites, online articles, etc.)

IABE condemns any form of plagiarism and aims to identify and reject all scientific works that include elements of plagiarism. IABE uses expert reviewers with vast experience in order to identify and prevent any form of plagiarism. Additionally, the IABE uses iThenticate to identify any form of plagiarism.

By submitting a manuscript to be revised and published in the journal/ proceeding or to be presented in an IABE conference, the authors assume responsibility for the entire contents of the manuscript.

By submitting a manuscript for review, the author takes responsibility that the manuscript is presented in the final version, is original, does not contain elements of plagiarism and is free from any conflicts of interest on the part of the author.

If elements of plagiarism are detected, the author is legally liable for all damages.

COPYRIGHT

Copyright protects original articles, research, etc. from use without first receiving permission from the other person. Manuscripts or cases submitted for publication should be original contributions and should not be under consideration for any other publication at the same time. Authors submitting manuscripts/cases for publication warrant that the work is not an infringement of any existing copyright, infringement of proprietary right, invasion of privacy, or libel. Authors further indemnify, defend, and hold IABE or sponsor(s) harmless from any damages, expenses, and costs against any breach of such warranty. For ease of dissemination and to ensure proper policing of use, manuscripts/cases and contributions become the legal copyright of IABE unless otherwise agreed to in writing.
