Publication Ethics
Code of Ethics for Journal Publication
The process of publishing articles in the Jurnal Digital Bisnis, Modal Manusia, Marketing, Entrepreneurship, Finance, & Strategi Bisnis (DImmensi), through peer review, plays a vital role in developing a structured and reputable network of knowledge. This process reflects the quality of the author's work and the supporting institution. Peer-reviewed articles also uphold and reflect scientific principles. Therefore, it is crucial to adopt ethical standards agreed upon by all parties involved in the publication process: authors, editors, reviewers, the publisher, and readers.
As the publisher of the Jurnal DImmensi, the FISIP Administrasi Bisnis (Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Business Administration) at Universitas Sangga Buana is responsible for diligently overseeing all stages of publication. We understand our ethical responsibilities and other obligations, and are committed to ensuring that commercial aspects, such as advertising, reprints, and other sources of revenue, do not influence editorial decisions.
Furthermore, by submitting a manuscript, the author affirms that the work has not been previously published, either partially or entirely, in any form or language, and is not currently under consideration elsewhere. The editors, authors, and reviewers of Jurnal DImmensi must adhere to applicable publication standards and acknowledge their responsibility to follow the guidelines set forth in the COPE Code of Conduct for Journal Editors, as part of the Core Practices.
Duties of Editors
Publication Decisions
The Editor of Jurnal DImmensi is responsible for determining which articles shall be published. The validity and relevance of the work to the academic community must always underpin this decision. Editors may be guided by the policies set by the journal's editorial board and must comply with legal requirements regarding defamation, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. They may also consult with other editors or reviewers in making their decision.
Fair Process
Editors are expected to evaluate manuscripts solely based on their intellectual content, without regard to the author's race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political philosophy.
Confidentiality
The Editor and all editorial staff must ensure the confidentiality of any information about a submitted manuscript, sharing it only with the corresponding author, reviewers, potential reviewers, editorial advisors, and the relevant publisher.
Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
Unpublished materials disclosed in a submitted manuscript must not be used in an editor's own research without the explicit written consent of the author.
Duties of Reviewers
Contribution to Editorial Decisions
The peer review process assists the editor in making appropriate editorial decisions and may also help the author improve their work through constructive feedback.
Promptness
If a reviewer feels unqualified to review a manuscript or knows that they cannot provide a timely review, they should notify the editor and withdraw from the review process.
Confidentiality
Any manuscript received for review must be treated as a confidential document and must not be shared with or discussed with others, except with the editor's authorization.
Objectivity
Reviews should be conducted objectively, with no personal criticism of the author included. Reviewers should express their views clearly and provide underlying arguments.
Acknowledgment of Sources
Reviewers should identify relevant published work that has not been cited by the authors. Any statement asserting that an idea or argument has been previously published should be accompanied by the relevant citation. Reviewers should also notify the editor if they find any significant similarity or overlap between the manuscript under review and any other work they are familiar with.
Disclosure and Conflict of Interest
Information obtained through the peer review process must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships with the authors or related institutions.
Duties of Authors
Reporting Standards
Authors must present an accurate and complete account of the research performed and follow it with an objective discussion of its significance. Data must be represented truthfully and with sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Misleading or inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable.
Originality and Plagiarism
Authors must ensure that their submitted work is entirely original, and whenever they use the work or words of others, they must provide appropriate citation or references.
Multiple, Redundant, or Concurrent Publication
An author should not submit the same work to more than one primary journal. Submitting the same manuscript to multiple journals simultaneously is considered unethical and unacceptable.
Acknowledgment of Sources
Authors are obligated to give proper acknowledgment to the work of others that has influenced their research.
Authorship of the Manuscript
Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. Others who have participated in certain substantive aspects should be acknowledged or listed as contributors. The corresponding author should ensure that all appropriate co-authors are included and that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the manuscript and agreed to its submission for publication.
Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
All authors must disclose in their manuscript any financial or other substantive conflict of interest that might be construed to influence the results or interpretation of their manuscript. All sources of funding for the project should be disclosed.
Fundamental Errors in Published Works
When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in their own published work, it is the author’s obligation to promptly notify the journal editor or publisher and cooperate to retract or correct the manuscript.
