Guidelines for preventing scientific theft and fraud

Upon submission of an article to the Payame Noor University journal management system, all authors of the article will be notified by email. The inclusion of authors' names in the article is essential to recognize their contribution to the research. If authors did not contribute to the article and their names were misused, they should report this immediately via the received email. All authors of the article are responsible for the authenticity of the work. The right to evaluate cases of scientific theft and to discredit the article rests with the journal authorities.

 

After submitting an article to the journal system, under no circumstances will the first author's position, responsibility, or the number of authors change.

 

Scientific theft can take various forms, including:

 

1. Registering someone else's article under one's own name;
2. Including the names of authors and researchers who did not contribute to the article;
3. Copying or repeating significant portions of someone else's article (if the copied article belongs to one of the authors of the new article, this is also considered plagiarism);
4. Presenting the results of other people's research as one's own;
5. Repeatedly publishing an article with similar content by the same author in several journals;
6. Stating incorrect results and scientific findings or manipulating research data.

 

Cases of scientific theft are dealt with legally by the journal authorities based on the degree of plagiarism, as follows:

 

The article will be rejected, and if published on the journal's website, it will be removed under any circumstances.

The names of all authors of the article will be listed on the Payame Noor University journal blacklist.

Legal action will be pursued with relevant judicial authorities, including disciplinary councils and legal authorities.

A formal letter will be sent to other universities and domestic and foreign journals related to the plagiarism case.

A formal letter will be sent to the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology, the Islamic World Science Citation Center (ISC), the author's workplace, universities, institutions, journals, and any place where the authors have used the publication credit for this article to inform them of the plagiarism case.
