Ethics and Policies
Ethics and policies are required to achieve quality
and trust in scientific publications, to evoke better growth in scientific
findings and to give people credit for their findings.
Authorship
SunText Reviews journals do not require a written
consent from the authors of a research paper. But submission to a journal
entails that all the listed authors have agreed to all the content of the
journal including the author list and contributions. The corresponding author
is responsible for the consent of all the authors to be listed in the journal
and for their approval of manuscript submission. He also holds responsibility
for any communication between the co-authors and the journal before and after
the publication. The authors' list should include only the appropriate authors.
Authorship in the journal gives credits to the author for his contributions and
accountability to his work. Therefore at least one member from the groups
should take up the responsibility for the contributions to the manuscript.
Easy Access
SunText Reviews is committed to providing easy
access to our products and services to everyone. We give utmost priority in
providing our customers with complete information and understanding of the
content. To provide easy access we encourage our authors to provide accessible
content and we keep enhancing our features to provide a better platform for the
readers.
Article Withdrawal
In general, editors of the respective journal are
completely responsible for deciding which articles to be published in the
journal. Once the articles have been published they remain intact. Articles
which contain errors or have been submitted twice or have wrong claims of
authorship, plagiarism or false data are withdrawn.
Duplicate Submission
Manuscripts that have been published previously or
are under review elsewhere will come under duplicate submission. If authors are
using their own previously submitted work as the base for the current
manuscript then prior to the submission they should indicate how the submitted
manuscript is novel than the previous work.
Plagiarism
SunText Reviews journals are committed in their
approach to publishing only original material. Any manuscript that has content
from manuscripts of other authors whether published or unpublished will come
under plagiarism. Submitted manuscripts that may have false experimental
results or manipulated content or images will be considered as false data.
These will be taken as a breach in the policy of the journal. This may lead to
the withdrawal of the manuscript.
Author Contribution
It is important to list everyone who made a
contribution in the manuscript. The listed authors should have the significant
contribution to the manuscript.
