ETHICAL RESPONSIBILITY

Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI):
If authors use any form of artificial intelligence (AI) tools during the preparation of their manuscript, they must clearly disclose this in the Methods or Acknowledgements section. Inappropriate use of AI includes undisclosed AI-generated text, fabricated data, plagiarism, inaccurate or misleading AI outputs, and any use of AI that violates academic integrity, ethical standards, or copyright laws. Authors must take full responsibility for verifying the accuracy, originality, and ethical compliance of any AI-assisted content used in their manuscript. The journal bears no responsibility for any issues arising from the use of AI, including but not limited to inaccuracies, ethical concerns, copyright violations, or undisclosed AI-generated content. The full responsibility for the use of AI lies with the author(s).

Plagiarism and Academic Misconduct:
All submissions must be original work. Manuscripts found to contain plagiarism, self-plagiarism, fabrication, falsification, or any other form of academic misconduct will be rejected. Any ethical or legal consequences resulting from plagiarism or related violations are solely the responsibility of the author(s). The journal does not assume liability for actions or disputes arising from such misconduct.

Author Accountability:
By submitting a manuscript, authors agree that they hold full responsibility for the accuracy, originality, and integrity of their work. Any complaints, claims, or legal actions related to authorship, data ownership, misuse of AI, plagiarism, or other ethical issues shall be directed to the author(s), not the journal, its editors, or its publisher.

Journal Rights:
The journal reserves the right to retract published articles if serious ethical breaches, including plagiarism, undisclosed AI usage, data manipulation, or copyright violations, are discovered after publication.
