The Global Conference on Business Management and Economics firmly commits to the highest ethical standards in publishing and intellectual honesty. We firmly support the principles outlined below:
Authorship and Originality: All articles submitted must be the original work of the authors listed. Responding to others’ contributions is essential. We strictly prohibit any form of plagiarism and will enforce immediate article rejection or retraction of the work.
Peer Review Process: We subject all articles to a thorough peer review by prestigious professionals skilled in the relevant fields. Our selection of reviewers is based on their academic expertise, neutrality, and the lack of any conflicts of interest. Reviewers must offer productive criticism and uphold strict confidentiality during the review timeline.
Conflicts of Interest: It is mandatory for all authors, reviewers, and editorial staff to openly disclose any potential conflicts of interest that could impact the publication process or distort the version of results. Such conflicts may encompass financial, personal, or professional ties that suggest a potential bias.
Data Integrity and Reproducibility: Authors bear responsibility for the accuracy and virtue of their presented data. Acts of data fabrication, alteration, or manipulation represent severe ethical breaches and will face strict action. Authors are expected to provide wide details and documentation to support the consistency of their research findings.
Ethical Treatment of Subjects: Conformity with ethical standards and regulations is mandatory for research involving human or animal subjects. Researchers must gain informed consent from all participants and carefully follow pertinent ethical guidelines and regulations.
Publication Transparency: Authors must present a truthful, inclusive record of their research, covering methodologies, outcomes, and any possible limitations. Reporting of potential conflicts of interest, sources of funding, or any appropriate affiliations is mandatory.
Correction and Retraction: The Global Conference on Business Management and Economics commits to correcting or withdrawing publications if inaccuracies, errors, or ethical lapses are identified. Corrections will be issued immediately, while retractions will occur in instances of significant ethical iniquity or instability.
Editorial Independence: Editorial resolutions remain solely on the scientific value and relevance of the submitted articles. Our editors ensure that external pressures, prejudices, or personal interests do not influence the editorial process.
Compliance with Copyright Laws: Authors are mandated to ensure that their submissions stand by existing copyright statutes and norms. This includes proper attribution to previous works and acquiring the necessary permissions for the inclusion of copyrighted material.
The purpose of this statement is to restate our constant commitment to ethical principles and the promotion of honesty within academic publishing. We hope that our community of authors, reviewers, and readers will become familiar with these guidelines and join to the highest ethical standards in their academic exercises.
This statement may be revised or refined by the Global Conference on Business Management and Economics to maintain robust academic publishing practices and ethical standards.
As an authoritative declaration of our conference’s commitment to ethical practices in publishing, this statement guides all parties involved during the publication process.
