Authorship Policy

Authorship should be limited to individuals who have made a significant intellectual contribution to the conception, design, execution, analysis, or interpretation of the research. All authors must have participated sufficiently in the work to take public responsibility for its content and must approve the final version of the manuscript before submission.

The corresponding author is responsible for ensuring that all eligible contributors are included as authors and that no inappropriate authors are listed. Individuals who contributed to the research but do not meet the criteria for authorship should be acknowledged appropriately.

The journal does not accept guest, honorary, or ghost authorship. Any changes to the authorship list after submission, including the addition, removal, or reordering of authors, must be justified and approved by all authors and the editorial office.

The journal is committed to maintaining transparency, accountability, and integrity in authorship practices.
