Publication Ethics

Kode etik publikasi jurnal ilmiah di Indonesia mengacu pada Peraturan Kepala LIPI Nomor 5 Tahun 2014 serta standar internasional dari Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). Aturan ini menjunjung tiga nilai utama: kenetralan (bebas konflik kepentingan), keadilan (hak kepengarangan yang tepat), dan kejujuran (bebas dari duplikasi, fabrikasi, falsifikasi, dan plagiarisme atau DF2P).
