Citations Ethics
Please note that among the research ethics, are the following:
-Researchers should use sources that are directly related to the study. It is not permissible to use sources that are unrelated or only marginally related to the research. Additionally, researchers should be precise in selecting recent and relevant sources.
-Researchers should not cite sources that are unrelated to his work for the purpose of increasing citations for themselves, others, or their university. We receive feedback from reviewers in this regard, and we either reject the research or ask the researcher to remove such sources.
-Reviewers should not ask researchers to add sources that are unrelated to the research for the purpose of increasing citations for themselves, their institution, or their university.
-Research that violates the above points will be rejected.
-Accepted research found to be in violation of the above points will have its acceptance revoked.
-Published research found to be in violation of the above guidelines will have its publication canceled, and Scopus will be notified to retract the research from its database, according to the journal’s guidelines derived from the publishing ethics institution. The research title will remain on the journal’s website, with the reason for publication cancellation noted beneath it. The same applies to the research page on Scopus.
