Publication Ethic and Related Editorial Policies

Publication Ethics and Editorial Integrity

The International Journal of Management, Economic, Business and Accounting (IJMEBA) is committed to maintaining high standards of publication ethics, editorial integrity, transparency, and responsible scholarly communication.

IJMEBA develops and implements its publication-ethics policies with reference to internationally recognized principles and guidance on responsible scholarly publishing, including relevant guidance provided by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and the Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing.

Reference to COPE guidance does not imply organizational membership, endorsement, accreditation, certification, or formal affiliation unless such status is explicitly stated and independently verifiable.

The journal's editors, reviewers, authors, and publisher are expected to uphold principles of honesty, transparency, confidentiality, accountability, fairness, editorial independence, and respect for the integrity of the scholarly record.

External Standards and Guidelines

IJMEBA may refer to internationally recognized scholarly-publishing guidelines when developing and reviewing its editorial policies. References to external organizations, standards, or guidelines are provided for transparency and policy development purposes.

Unless explicitly stated and verifiable, such references should not be interpreted as indicating membership, accreditation, endorsement, certification, indexing status, or formal partnership with the respective organization.

Where IJMEBA subsequently obtains formal membership, indexing, certification, preservation participation, or another externally verified status, the journal website will be updated accordingly.
