Ethics in Publishing: General Statement
The Editor(s) and Publisher of this Journal believe
that there are fundamental principles underlying scholarly or professional publishing. While this may not amount to a formal 'code of
conduct', these fundamental principles with respect to the authors' paper are that the paper should: i) be the authors' own original
work, which has not been previously published elsewhere, ii) reflect the authors' own research and analysis and do so in a truthful and
complete manner, iii) properly credit the meaningful contributions of co-authors and co-researchers, iv) not be submitted to more than
one journal for consideration, and v) be appropriately placed in the context of prior and existing research. Of equal importance are
ethical guidelines dealing with research methods and research funding, including issues dealing with informed consent, research subject
privacy rights, conflicts of interest, and sources of funding. While it may not be possible to draft a 'code' that applies adequately
to all instances and circumstances, we believe it useful to outline our expectations of authors and procedures that the Journal will
employ in the event of questions concerning author conduct. With respect to conflicts of interest, the Publisher now requires authors
to declare any conflicts of interest that relate to papers accepted for publication in this Journal. A conflict of interest may exist
when an author or the author's institution has a financial or other relationship with other people or organizations that may inappropriately
influence the author's work. A conflict can be actual or potential and full disclosure to the Journal is the safest course. All submissions
to the Journal must include disclosure of all relationships that could be viewed as presenting a potential conflict of interest. The
Journal may use such information as a basis for editorial decisions and may publish such disclosures if they are believed to be important
to readers in judging the manuscript. A decision may be made by the Journal not to publish on the basis of the declared conflict.
