Allegations of Misconduct

Research misconduct means fabrication, falsification, citation manipulation, or plagiarism in producing, performing, or reviewing research and writing an article by authors, or in reporting research results. When authors are found to have been involved with research misconduct or other serious irregularities involving articles that have been published in scientific journals, Editors have a responsibility to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record.

In cases of suspected misconduct, JPDI (Jurnal Pendidikan Dasar Indonesia) will use the best practices of COPE (https://publicationethics.org/misconduct) to resolve the complaint and address the misconduct fairly. This will include an investigation of the allegation by the Editors. A submitted manuscript that is found to contain such misconduct will be rejected. In cases where a published paper is found to contain such misconduct, a retraction can be published and will be linked to the original article.

The first step involves determining the validity of the allegation and an assessment of whether the allegation is consistent with the definition of research misconduct. This initial step also involves determining whether the individuals alleging misconduct have relevant conflicts of interest. The allegations are shared with the corresponding author, who, on behalf of all of the co-authors, is requested to provide a detailed response.

After the response is received and evaluated, additional review and involvement of experts (such as statistical reviewers) may be obtained. For cases in which it is unlikely that misconduct has occurred, clarifications, additional analyses, or both, published as letters to the editor, and often including a correction notice and correction to the published article are sufficient.

Authorship and contributorship

As a globally active open access journal, JPDI (Jurnal Pendidikan Dasar Indonesia) strive to promote the best practice in the academic area and maintain integrity in all of our publishing activities.

JPDI (Jurnal Pendidikan Dasar Indonesia) use the Authorship and Contributionship Policy by CRediT (Contributor Roles Taxonomy) (hyperlink: https://credit.niso.org/). CRediT is a high-level taxonomy, including 14 roles, that can be used to represent the roles typically played by contributors to research outputs. The roles describe each contributor’s specific contribution to the scholarly output.

Therefore, JPDI (Jurnal Pendidikan Dasar Indonesia) ask to the authors of manuscript that each authors have to share an accurate and detailed description of their diverse contributions to the published work.

• The corresponding author is responsible for ensuring that the descriptions are accurate and agreed by all authors.

Conflicts of Interest

Conflicts of interest exist when an author (or the author’s institution), reviewer, editor, editorial board member has financial or personal relationships with other individuals or organizations that could inappropriately influence his or her actions in a way that creates bias. The existence of such a relationship does not necessarily represent a true conflict of interest. The potential for conflicts of interest can exist whether or not an individual believes that the relationship affects their judgment. Financial relationships (e.g., employment, consultancies, stock ownership, honoraria, paid expert testimony, patents) are the most easily identifiable conflicts of interest and are most likely to undermine the credibility of the journal, the authors, and the scientific value of the research.

Financial

All authors should disclose in their manuscript any financial or other substantive conflicts of interest that might be construed to influence the results or interpretation of their manuscript. All sources of financial support for the project should be disclosed.

Editors, authors and reviewers of a manuscript should inform the relevant journal of any significant financial interest-recent, present or anticipated - in any organisation that may in any way gain or lose financially from the publication of the piece (for example, employment by such an organisation; funds for research; funds for a member of staff; fees for consulting; stock or shareholdings; patent interests). If you have such an interest, you may have a conflict of interest, which should be declared.

Other Interest

An editor, author or reviewer may wish to disclose to the editor a conflict of interest that would be embarrassing if it became generally known (for example, an academic link or rivalry or a close relationship with, or a strong antipathy to, a person whose interests may be affected by publication of a manuscript).

Potential Reviewers

We may ask authors to recommend suitable reviewers on submission of their manuscript. When recommending reviewers, the following points should be considered:

• Authors should not recommend reviewers with whom they have a conflict of interest, for example, a close collaborator or colleague.
• Recommended reviewers should not be at the same institute as any of the authors listed on the manuscript.
• Institutional email addresses should be provided for recommended reviewers, wherever possible.

For further guidance on avoiding potential conflicts of interest during the peer review process, see the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) ethical guidelines for peer reviewers.

Conflict Of Interest Statement

Please note that a Conflicts of interest statement is required for all submitted manuscripts. If no conflicts exist, please state that there are no conflicts to declares under a Conflicts of interest heading as the last section after your Acknowledgements.

Data and Reproducibility
