Journal of Scientific Reports-C

The journal aims to share scientific studies carried out in the fields of science and engineering at national and international level with scientists and the public. Original research articles, review articles and short notes in science and engineering disciplines are accepted for the journal. Original research articles are expected to contain theoretical and experimental results and should not be published in other journals. In the review articles, it is expected that scientific, technological and current developments on a specific subject are reflected by using an extensive bibliography and made a satisfying evaluation of these. Short notes should be brief writings prepared to announce the first findings of an original study.

Journal of Scientific Reports-C was separated from Journal of Science and Technology of Dumlupınar University which started its publication life in 2000 and is a national peer-reviewed journal published regularly third times a year in April, August and December. The language of the journal is Turkish and English. Articles submitted to the journal are evaluated by at least two referees who are experts in the subject and selected by the editorial board.

Scientific Research and Publication Ethics:


Scientific research is the presentation of a problem and the research, examination and evaluation of the subject using universal scientific methods. The basic principles to be applied in scientific research are to have the necessary competence in the design and conduct of the research, to maintain self-criticism, honesty and transparency during the conduct of the research and the analysis of the findings, and to respect the work of those who have conducted or are conducting research on the same subject. Three important principles of scientific research ethics are to approach the research problem honestly, to be open and honest when reporting the results of the research, and to make the contribution of everyone involved in the research visible.


A scientific study should be in accordance with research methodology and research ethics. At the beginning of the research, the tasks in the research process and the distribution of all rights in publications should be determined. False data declaration, producing false data, and using someone else's data without permission constitute ethical violations. All sources (including electronic ones) and methods used for data collection and analysis should be presented in the study.

The purpose of scientific publication is to ensure that the information and knowledge produced and developed are shared and disseminated, and as a result, science is developed for the benefit of humanity. In a scientific publication prepared in line with this purpose, the information in the publication must be accurate and complete, the publication must not contain intentionally incomplete information, the production and development of information must be in accordance with "scientific ethics", and the information and data developed and compiled within the scientific system must be published, The content of the publication should be unbiased, personal interests, concerns, political views and beliefs should not influence the publication, all sources used in the publication should be cited, the contributions of those who have contributed to the production, compilation, measurement and preparation of the information in the publication should be indicated as authors or by acknowledgement.

Presenting a work and artistic applications belonging to another person (in written, printed and electronic media) in his/her own name by taking it as it is, presenting a part of it as his/her own work without citing it in accordance with the rules of scientific publication, presenting the findings and artistic applications without clearly indicating that they are quotations (by changing the software type, italicising and quoting, marking in the text, indicating in footnote or bibliography), changing and presenting them by using different words or sentences, presenting information, thoughts and applications as if they were his/her own idea are forms of plagiarism. Giving incomplete information while citing, not giving appropriate information about the source of the citation, forgetting the source and using it by remembering it as if it is one's own idea (subconscious illusion) are subtle types of plagiarism.

An abstract of a publication published in a congress or meeting does not prevent the publication from being submitted for publication. However, the fact that this publication has been presented at meetings or congresses should be stated in the application for publication. It is acceptable to reprint a work in different languages; however, when applying for publication, the first publication must be mentioned and cited in the publication. When applying to a journal, authors should provide detailed information about similar publications in another language if they are in press.

Authorship rights must be observed in publications. Authorship means taking part and responsibility in all stages of the research and publication as defined by the International Editors' Association. In order to avoid conflicts that may arise later, it is appropriate to decide at the beginning of the study who will be considered as authors, who will be considered as supporters and who will be thanked. The order of names is determined in proportion to the contribution to the research.

Ethics of Scientific Evaluation:


There are basic ethical values and principles that should be observed in publication evaluations, academic promotions, expertise, exam juries and journal refereeing:


Within this framework, academic staff
(a) Act independently and impartially,
(b) To act honestly, to tell the truth and to observe the principle of confidentiality,
(c) Act in accordance with the principle of equality,
(d) Act without prejudice, act consistently, be descriptive, clear and explicit in scientific evaluations,
(d) Complies with the assessment period given to him/her; does not only criticise but also provides constructive feedback and suggestions during the assessment processes,
(e) shall not abuse his/her duties as an arbitrator through inspiration, theft of ideas or unfair advantage,
(f) not prevent or delay the publication of an article except for scientific reasons
(g) Does not go beyond the scientific requirements in the appointment of referees, and pays attention to the appointment of employees related to the field as referees,
(h) Rejects evaluation requests outside the field.

The journal is open access and the article evaluation period is between 1-2 months.
