Publication Ethics

Applied Learning & International Scientific Publications Library (ALISPL) is firmly committed to maintaining the highest standards of publication ethics, academic integrity, transparency, and responsible scholarly publishing in accordance with internationally recognized ethical guidelines and best practices for academic research publication.

The journal promotes originality, credibility, quality research dissemination, ethical scientific communication, and fair editorial practices across multiple disciplines including science, engineering, technology, healthcare, law, pharmacy, nursing, education, humanities, management, and social sciences.

All authors, reviewers, editors, editorial board members, publishers, and associated contributors are expected to follow ethical research and publication standards throughout the manuscript submission, peer review, editorial evaluation, publication, and post-publication process.

Author Responsibilities

Authors submitting manuscripts must ensure that their research work is completely original, authentic, unpublished, and not under consideration for publication in any other journal, conference, or academic platform simultaneously.

Authors are fully responsible for maintaining the accuracy, validity, integrity, originality, references, citations, figures, statistical analysis, and conclusions presented within the manuscript.

• Plagiarism and Self-Plagiarism
• Duplicate Publication
• Data Fabrication or Falsification
• Manipulated Images or Misleading Information
• Citation Manipulation
• Fake or Ghost Authorship
• Peer Review Manipulation
• Unauthorized Use of Copyrighted Material

Any violation of publication ethics may result in manuscript rejection, publication withdrawal, article retraction, restriction of future submissions, or notification to affiliated institutions and regulatory authorities.

Peer Review & Editorial Process

The journal follows a rigorous editorial screening and double-blind peer review process to ensure originality, technical accuracy, ethical compliance, scholarly relevance, and research quality.

All manuscripts may undergo plagiarism screening using recognized plagiarism detection software such as Turnitin, iThenticate, or equivalent systems before entering the peer review process.

Reviewers are expected to provide confidential, ethical, unbiased, and constructive evaluations based solely on scholarly merit, originality, significance, analytical quality, and contribution to knowledge without discrimination based on nationality, gender, religion, race, institutional affiliation, or personal beliefs.

Editorial Responsibilities

Editors and editorial board members are responsible for maintaining editorial independence, confidentiality, transparency, fairness, and ethical compliance throughout the publication process.

Editorial decisions are based exclusively on research quality, originality, relevance to journal scope, academic merit, and ethical publication standards.

Editors are also responsible for addressing ethical complaints, conflicts of interest, copyright concerns, plagiarism issues, and post-publication corrections or retractions whenever necessary to preserve the integrity and credibility of the journal.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Ethics

The journal recognizes the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools and AI-assisted technologies in academic writing, language editing, coding support, data analysis, and research assistance.

Authors may use AI tools for limited technical support purposes such as grammar correction, formatting assistance, coding support, language enhancement, and data visualization; however, all intellectual contribution, scientific interpretation, conclusions, and ethical responsibility must remain under complete human authorship and supervision.

The journal strictly prohibits the use of AI for generating fabricated data, fake references, manipulated research findings, misleading academic content, falsified peer review information, or unethical publication practices.

AI systems, automated software, chatbots, or language models cannot be listed as authors or co-authors because they cannot assume responsibility for research integrity, originality, copyright compliance, or ethical accountability.

Important Note

Authors are encouraged to disclose the use of significant AI-assisted technologies wherever applicable to ensure transparency in scholarly communication and responsible digital research practices.

The journal reserves the right to update or strengthen its publication ethics policies in accordance with evolving international academic publishing standards, research integrity guidelines, AI governance frameworks, and ethical scholarly communication practices.
