Publication Ethics
Aathiyoga follows the Core Practices of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and expects authors, reviewers and editors to do the same.
Authors
- Submit only original work that has not been published and is not under consideration elsewhere.
- Cite all sources. Plagiarism, including self-plagiarism, is not accepted.
- List as authors everyone who contributed substantially to the work, and only them.
- Declare funding and any conflict of interest.
- Tell the editor at once about any error found in a published article.
Reviewers
- Keep manuscripts confidential and do not use their content.
- Review objectively and on time, and declare any conflict of interest.
Editors
- Judge manuscripts on their merit alone, without regard to the authors’ identity, institution or beliefs.
- Keep the review confidential and handle complaints, corrections and retractions promptly, following COPE’s guidance.
