Publication Ethics

  • The Educational Evaluation and Learning Management Journal adheres to the Committee on Publication Ethics' guidelines (COPE). All manuscripts are subjected to peer review and must adhere to academic standards. Submissions will be reviewed by peer reviewers who will remain anonymous to the authors if the editor approves them. Furthermore, authors are asked to submit a separate title page during submission, so reviewers are unaware of the authors' identity.
  • Educational Evaluation and Learning Management Journal employ Crossref Similarity Check (iThenticate) to detect contributions that overlap with previously published and submitted publications to minimize plagiarism. When a submission is discovered to be copied from a previously published or unpublished manuscript, it is rejected.
  • Original content is considered by the Educational Evaluation and Learning Management Journal, which means studies that have never been published before, even if they are written in a language other than English. Papers based on data that was previously only available on a preprint server, an institutional repository, or in a thesis will be considered. Authors must state that their work is unique and has never been published or considered for publication anywhere. Papers presented at conferences are accepted if this is stated in the cover letter.
  • Separating study results into many papers (salami slicing) may result in manuscript rejection or a request to consolidate submitted manuscripts, as well as the need to edit published articles. Duplicate publication of the same, or a very similar, article may lead to the later piece's retraction.
  • Authors who submit citations primarily for the goal of increasing the number of citations to a specific author's work or papers published in a specific publication may face fines. The fabrication and falsification of results are strictly prohibited in the Educational Evaluation and Learning Management Journal.
  • The Educational Evaluation and Learning Management Journal requests that authors acknowledge anyone who helped with the research but is not an author.
  • Authors are asked to present a conflict-of-interest statement before submitting their work. Financial, connections, intellectual property, personal, ideological, and academic conflicts of interest are all possibilities. All potential conflicts of interest must be declared in a section titled "Conflicts of Interest," which should explain why the interest might constitute a conflict. "The author(s) declare(s) that there are no conflicts of interest regarding the publication of this paper," the authors should write if there are none. Declared conflicts of interest will be considered by the editor and reviewers and will be included in the final article.
