FA7LR is committed to ethics and quality in publishing. We support standards of expected ethical behavior for all parties involved in publishing in our journal: the author, the journal editor, the reviewers and the institution. Plagiarism or any other unethical behavior is not allowed.

Duties of editors

• Publishing Decision: FA7LR editors are responsible for deciding which articles submitted to the journal should be published. Publishers are guided by Editorial Board policies and in strict compliance with legal requirements regarding defamation, copyright infringement and plagiarism. Editors may consult the Editorial Board or other members of the editorial staff in making decisions.
• Non-Discriminatory Treatment: Editors should evaluate submissions according to their intellectual content, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnic origin, nationality, or the political philosophy of the authors. Any kind of prejudice is repudiated.
• Confidentiality: Editors and any member of the editorial staff should not disclose any information about a submission submitted to anyone except the author himself, reviewers, potential contributors, other editorial advisors, and the institution, as appropriate.
• Disclosure and conflict of interest: Editors should not use unpublished content used in FA7LR submissions without the express written consent of the author. Editors should refrain from evaluating submissions in which there is any conflict of interest resulting from competitive or collaborative relationships or any other relationship or connection with any of the authors, companies or institutions to which submissions are linked.
• Intervention and cooperation in investigations: Editors should take reasonable action within reasonable response times when ethical complaints are made regarding a submission or published article.

Duties of Evaluators:

• Contribution to editorial decisions: Peer review helps editors make editorial decisions and, through editorial communications with the author, can also assist with the refinement of the article.
• Punctuality: Any selected evaluator who does not feel qualified to evaluate the research reported in a submission, or knows that immediate review will be impossible, must notify the editor and decline the review process.
• Confidentiality: All submissions submitted for evaluation should be treated as confidential documents. They should not be shown or discussed with third parties.
• Standards of objectivity: Opinions should be conducted objectively and evaluators should express their opinions clearly with supporting arguments.
• Identification of bibliographic sources: Reviewers should identify relevant and accessible works that have not been cited by the authors. The reviewer should also draw the editor's attention to any substantial similarity or overlap between the manuscript in question and any other published document of his / her personal knowledge.
• Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest: Insider information or ideas obtained through peer review should be kept confidential and may not be used for personal gain. Reviewers should not consider submissions in which they have any conflict of interest resulting from competitive or collaborative relationships or any other relationship or connection with any of the authors, companies or institutions to which the submissions are linked.

Author's Duties:

• General Rules: Authors of original submissions should provide an accurate account of the research performed as well as an objective analysis of its meaning. Underlying data must be accurately presented in the text. A document must contain sufficient details and references to allow others to replicate the search. Fraudulent or intentionally inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable.
• Originality and Plagiarism: Authors should ensure that their works are completely original and, if the authors used the research, words or expressions of other authors, they must have been properly cited and referenced. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical and unacceptable publishing behavior.
• Multiple, Redundant, or Concurrent Publications: An author should generally not publish manuscripts that describe essentially the same research in more than one journal requiring originality. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal simultaneously or publishing the same research in different journals is unethical and unacceptable publishing behavior.
• Identification of bibliographic sources: Proper recognition of third party research should always be done. Authors should cite publications that influenced the determination of the nature of the reported work. Information obtained privately, such as in informal conversations, correspondence or discussions with third parties, should not be used or reported without the express written permission of the source. Information obtained in the course of confidential activities, such as evaluation submissions or funding projects, should not be used without the explicit written permission of the author of the work involved in such activities.
• Authorship: Authorship should be attributed to those who contributed significantly to the design, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. People who have participated in substantive aspects of the research project should also be recognized or listed as contributors or contributors. The lead author should ensure that only the appropriate co-authors are included in the article, and that all co-authors have read and approved the final version of the document and agreed to their submission to FA7LR.
• Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest: All authors should disclose in their manuscripts any conflict of interest financial or otherwise that could lead to the results or interpretations of their submissions. All sources of financial support for the project should be disclosed.
• Key Errors in Published Articles: When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in their own published article, it is the author's obligation to notify FA7LR editors or the institution immediately and cooperate with the editors to retract or correct the article.
