Ethical Principles and Publication Policy
Ethical Principles and Publication Policy
The publication processes implemented in the journal are the basis for the development and distribution of information in an impartial and respectable manner. The processes implemented in this sense are directly reflected in the quality of the work of the authors and the institutions that support the authors. Peer-reviewed studies are studies that embody and support the scientific method. At this point, it is important that all stakeholders of the process (authors, readers and researchers, publishers, referees and editors) comply with the standards for ethical principles. Within the scope of IJMA publication ethics, all stakeholders are expected to bear the following ethical responsibilities.
The following ethical duties and responsibilities are prepared by taking into account the guidelines and policies published by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) as open access. The publication of an article in the peer-reviewed journal is a necessary building block in the development of a harmonious and respected information network. This is a direct reflection of the quality of the work of the authors and the institutes that support them. Peer-reviewed articles support and shape scientific methods. Therefore, reaching an agreement on the standards of expected ethical behavior is important for all parties involved in publishing, author, journal editor, referee and publisher institutions.
1. Authorship
• The references list must be complete.
• Plagiarism and fake data should not be included.

Actions contrary to the ethics of scientific research and publication include:

ç) Repetitive Publication: Presenting multiple works containing the same results of a study as separate works in associate professorship exam evaluations and academic promotions,
d) Slicing: Presenting the results of a study as separate works in associate professorship exam evaluations and academic promotions by disassembling them inappropriately and making numerous publications without reference to each other, in a way that impairs the integrity of the research,

The peer-review process is at the heart of the success of scientific publication. It is part of our commitment to maintaining and improving the arbitration process, and the IJMA has an obligation to assist the scientific community in any case involving publishing ethics, especially in case of suspicious, recurring publications or in cases of plagiarism.
Uncovering Plagiarism
Articles submitted to the journal for publication are subjected to double-sided blind peer-review evaluation by at least two referees. In addition, in the detection of plagiarism, it is declared by the authors that the articles have not been published before and do not contain plagiarism through TURNITIN or ITHENTICATE programs.
