particular study
authors are trying to reach the readers who may not be familiar with
already published article, especially if it is in another language
It affects the integrity of other studies, also the author who is their creator,
but also other authors from the same field of science
If such article is not disclosed on time, in vain will be other authors loss of
energy and time trying to take advantage of the presented results in their
studies
It creates a negative image of science in general and affects the trust
Research and Science Editing
Conflict of interest
The research and publication of scientific papers is vital for preservation
of objectivity in order to preserve the integrity of the research, the
reputation of the institution that conducts the study and journals that
published the study
From the authors conducted a study is expected to objectively present the
results of the research, and from the reviewers to objectively evaluate
them
Conflicts of interest may be individual or institutional.
Research and Science Editing
Conflict of interest
Journals introduced a ban on authors writing review articles if they had a
financial interest in the company concerning the research
Papers that report “original and significant” findings that are likely to be of
interest to a broad spectrum of its readers
Papers that are well organized and well written, with clear statements
regarding how the findings relate to and advance the
understanding/development of the subject
Papers that are concise and yet complete in their presentation of the findings
What is not acceptable
Papers that are routine extensions of previous reports and that do not
appreciably advance fundamental understanding or knowledge in
the area
Incremental / fragmentary reports of research results
Verbose, poorly organized, papers cluttered with unnecessary or
poor quality illustrations
Violations of ethical guidelines, including plagiarism of any type or
degree (of others or of oneself) and questionable research practices
