Publication Ethics

To improve the quality of the journal and the professionalism of authors, editors, reviewers, and journal managers, a "Barometer Publication Ethics" was established. This scientific publication ethic is expected to avoid malpractice in journal publishing and be safe from copyright infringement, such as duplication and plagiarism. This scientific publication ethic refers to the Peraturan Kepala LIPI Nomor 5 Tahun 2014 about Kode Etika Publikasi Ilmiah. These ethics of scientific publications are expected to be obeyed and implemented by authors, editors, reviewers, and journal managers.

AUTHOR ETHICS

  • Authors must report the process and results of their research honestly, clearly, accurately, thoroughly, and balanced and keep the research data intact. The author's honesty is expected in presenting every data and information contained in the content and results of the study.
  • Authenticity, the author makes a statement that the written work submitted to the editor of the journal is original (sourced from the author's ideas), has never been presented and published in any media, in any language, and is not in the process of being submitted to another publisher.
