Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement

Based on REGULATION OF THE CHAIRMAN OF INDONESIAN SCIENCE INSTITUTION NUMBER 2/2014

The researcher's code of ethics is a moral reference for researchers in researching the development of science and technology for humanity. This is a form of dedication and social responsibility and devotion to God Almighty following the Regulation of the Head of LIPI Number 06/E/2013 concerning the Research Code of Ethics.

Researchers who are proven legally to have violated the ethics of researchers are dismissed from their positions as researchers. Provisions regarding violations of researcher ethics are further regulated through the Head of LIPI Regulation Number 06 / E / 2013 concerning Research Code of Ethics and Head of LIPI Regulation Number 08/E/2013 concerning Guidelines for Research Ethics Clearance and Scientific Publications.

The publication code of ethics statement is a statement of the code of ethics for all parties involved in the publication process in scientific journals, namely managers, editors, bestari partners, and writers. This scientific publication ethics code statement is based on the Committee on Publication Ethics which has been adopted in the Regulation of the Head of LIPI Number 5 of 2014 concerning the Code of Ethics for Scientific Publications. In essence, this Scientific Publication Code of Ethics is to uphold three ethical values in publications, namely (i) neutrality, which is free from conflicts of interest in publication management; (ii) justice, namely giving authorship rights to those entitled as writers; and (iii) honesty, which is free from duplication, fabrication, falsification, and plagiarism (DF2P) in publications.
