Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement
The prevention of publication malpractice belongs among the most important priorities and responsibilities of the Executive Board of the Statistika journal. Any kind of unethical behavior is not acceptable. Plagiarism in any form is not tolerated. Authors submitting articles affirm that their manuscript contents are original papers. The below mentioned principles are binding to all parties participating in the publication of Statistika: Statistics and Economy Journal.
Editors bear responsibilities:
- for the contents and overall quality of the journal,
- have an authority to reject/accept an article for the review process and in case of a successful review process decide about the publication of the paper,
- for keeping all the information related to submitted manuscripts confidential,
- for preservation of the anonymity of reviewers and authors in the (double-blind) review process,
- for prevention of any conflicts of interest between the staff, authors, reviewers, and board members.
Authors bear responsibilities:
- for following the submission guidelines of the journal (see the Guide for Authors and the Sample Paper),
- for not submitting the same manuscript for the peer-review process to other journal(s) concurrently,
- for ensuring that the submitted manuscript has not yet been issued elsewhere, neither as a paper, nor as a conference contribution; otherwise acknowledgements about a newly adapted or a significantly reworked version of the author´s previously published paper must be added (a significantly reworked paper version means changed in at least 40%),
- for ensuring that they have written entirely original works (as stipulated in the Publisher´s Licence Agreement signed with each author),
- for appropriate citing in case of using previously published materials (citing all sources of data used in the research article and publications that have been influential, incl. DOI numbers of articles),
- for limiting authorship only to those who have made a significant contribution to the paper; authors also ensure that all the authors have seen and agreed to the submitted version of the manuscript and their inclusion of names as co-authors,
- for reporting significant errors or inaccuracies in submitted manuscripts that authors discover at any point in time,
- for providing retractions or corrections of mistakes (final proof before publication),
- for notifying of any conflicts of interest.
Reviewers bear responsibilities:
- for keeping information regarding manuscripts confidential and treating them as privileged,
- for immediate notice of any kind of similarity or overlap between the manuscripts under consideration or with any other published paper of which reviewer has personal knowledge,
- for objective review of submitted manuscripts and clear expression of their views including supporting arguments; reviewers should identify relevant published work that has not been cited by the authors (see the Review Form); only positive reviews can enable publication of the paper,
- for immediate communication in case that he/she feels it is not possible for him/her to complete review of manuscript within stipulated time, so that the manuscript could be sent to another reviewer,
- for notification of any conflicts of interest.
