Publication Ethics

Research Nexus Publication Journal (RENP Journal) is committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in scholarly publishing. We adhere to internationally recognized guidelines, including those set forth by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE), and the World Association of Medical Editors (WAME). This statement outlines the ethical responsibilities of authors, editors, reviewers, and publishers to ensure the integrity, transparency, and quality of published research.

1. Ethical Responsibilities of Authors

Authors play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and credibility of scholarly publishing. They are responsible for ensuring that their research meets the highest ethical and academic standards. The following principles must be strictly adhered to when submitting a manuscript to Research Nexus Publication Journal (RENP Journal):

1.1 Originality and Plagiarism

Originality is the foundation of academic research, and authors must ensure that their work contributes new knowledge or insights to their field.

Guidelines for Originality and Plagiarism:

• Ensuring Original Work:
  Authors must submit manuscripts that present entirely original research findings, analysis, or perspectives. The work should not have been published previously or under consideration elsewhere.
• Proper Citation of Sources:
  Any content, ideas, or data borrowed from existing literature, including direct quotes, paraphrases, tables, figures, or methodologies, must be properly cited using recognized citation styles (e.g., APA, MLA, Chicago). Failure to acknowledge sources constitutes plagiarism.
• Plagiarism in Any Form is Prohibited:
  Plagiarism includes the direct copying of text, ideas, or research findings without proper attribution. It also includes subtle forms such as:

• Self-plagiarism (recycling one’s own previously published work without citation).
• Image or Data Manipulation (misrepresenting or altering figures, tables, or research findings).
• Patchwriting (changing a few words of another author’s work while maintaining the original structure).

• Use of Plagiarism Detection Software:
  RENP Journal employs plagiarism detection tools (e.g., Turnitin, iThenticate) to verify manuscript originality. If plagiarism is detected, the manuscript will be rejected or retracted if already published.
• Consequences of Plagiarism:

• Manuscripts found to contain plagiarized content will be immediately rejected without review.
• If plagiarism is discovered after publication, the article will be formally retracted from the journal, and a notice of misconduct will be issued.
• Authors guilty of plagiarism may face bans on future submissions and may be reported to their institutions.
