出版道德与不当行为声明

出版道德

出版道德标准的存在是为了制作某些高质量的科学出版物、公众对科学发现的信任以及人们的工作和思想得到认可。

《病毒学与抗病毒研究杂志》遵循国际医学期刊编辑委员会 (ICMJE) 行为准则和期刊编辑出版道德最佳实践指南。

文章评估

所有手稿均需接受同行评审,并有望达到学术卓越的标准。如果通过编辑接受,提交的内容将由同行评审员考虑,同行评审员的身份将对作者保持匿名。

我们的研究诚信团队偶尔会在标准同行评审之外寻求建议,例如,针对具有严重道德、安全、生物安全或社会影响的提交内容。在决定适当的行动之前,我们可能会咨询专家和学术编辑,包括但不限于招募具有特定专业知识的审稿人、由其他编辑进行评估以及拒绝进一步考虑提交的内容。

抄袭

作者不再需要在没有注明出处的情况下使用他人的文字、数字或想法。所有来源都必须在使用时引用,并且应限制措辞的重复使用,并在文本中注明或引用。

被发现抄袭其他作者手稿的手稿,无论是否已发表,都将被拒绝,作者还可能受到制裁。任何已发表的文章也可能需要更正或撤回。

重复提交和重复发表

《病毒学与抗病毒研究杂志》仅考虑原创内容,即之前未发表的文章,包括以英语以外的语言发表的文章。基于先前仅在预印本服务器、机构存储库或论文中公开的内容的文章将被考虑。

提交给本期刊的手稿在审议期间不得提交到其他地方,并且在提交到其他地方之前必须撤回。被发现同时在其他地方提交文章的作者可能会受到制裁。

If authors have used their own previously published work, or work that is currently under review, as the basis for a submitted manuscript, they must cite the previous articles and indicate how their submitted manuscript differs from their previous work. Reuse of the author’s own words outside the methods should be attributed or quoted in the text. Reuse of the author’s own figures or substantial amounts of wording may require permission from the copyright holder and the authors are responsible for obtaining this.

Journal of Virology & Antiviral Research will consider extended versions of articles published at conferences provided this is declared in the cover letter, the previous version is clearly cited and discussed, there is significant new content, and any necessary permission are obtained.

Redundant publication, the inappropriate division of study outcomes into more than one article, may result in rejection or a request to merge submitted manuscripts, and the correction of published articles. Duplicate publication of the same, or a very similar, article may result in the retraction of the later article and the authors may incur sanctions.

Citation manipulation

Authors whose submitted manuscripts are found to include citations whose primary purpose is to increase the number of citations to a given author’s work, or to articles published in a particular journal, may incur sanctions.

Editors and reviewers must not ask authors to include references merely to increase citations to their own or an associate’s work to the journal or to another journal they are associated with.

Fabrication and falsification

The authors of submitted manuscripts or published articles that are found to have fabricated or falsified the results, including the manipulation of images, may incur sanctions, and published articles may be retracted.

Authorship and acknowledgements

All listed authors must have made a significant scientific contribution to the research in the manuscript, approved its claims, and agreed to be an author. It is important to list everyone who made a significant scientific contribution. Submitting authors must provide an ORCID and we encourage all authors to provide one. Changes in authorship must be declared to this journal and agreed to by all authors. An author may change their name on a published article (see below).

Anyone who contributed to the research or manuscript preparation, but is not an author, should be acknowledged with their permission.

Submissions by anyone other than one of the authors will not be considered.

 

Conflicts of interest

Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review 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 or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.

Editor will take reviewer misconduct seriously and pursue any allegation of breach of confidentiality, non-declaration of conflicts of interest (financial or non-financial), inappropriate use of confidential material, or delay of peer review for competitive advantage. Allegations of serious reviewer misconduct, such as plagiarism, will be taken to the institutional level.

Authors

Authors must declare all potential interests in a ‘Conflicts of interest’ section, which should explain why the interest may be a conflict. If there are none, the authors should state “The author declares that there are no conflicts of interest regarding the publication of this paper.” Submitting authors are responsible for co-authors declaring their interests.

Authors must declare current or recent funding (including article processing charges) and other payments, goods or services that might influence the work. All funding, whether a conflict or not, must be declared in the ‘Funding Statement’.

Declared conflicts of interest will be considered by the editor and reviewers and included in the published article.

Author(s) should state that the study they are submitting was approved by the relevant research ethics committee or institutional review board. If human participants were involved, manuscripts must be accompanied by a statement that the experiments were undertaken with the understanding and appropriate informed consent of each. If experimental animals were used, the materials and methods (experimental procedures) section must clearly indicate that appropriate measures were taken to minimize pain or discomfort, and details of animal care should be provided.

Editors and Reviewers

Editors and reviewers should decline to be involved with a submission when they

  • Have a recent publication or current submission with any author
  • Share or recently shared an affiliation with any author
  • Collaborate or recently collaborated with any author
  • Have a close personal connection to any author
  • Have a financial interest in the subject of the work
  • Feel unable to be objective

Reviewers must declare any remaining interests in the ‘Confidential’ section of the review form, which will be considered by the editor.

Editors and reviewers must declare if they have previously discussed the manuscript with the authors.

 

Corrections and retractions

When errors are identified in published articles, the publisher will consider what action is required and may consult the editors and the author’s institution(s).

Errors by the authors may be corrected by a corrigendum and errors by the publisher by an erratum.

Retracted papers will be retained online, and they will be prominently marked as a retraction in all online versions, including the PDF, for the benefit of future readers.

All authors will be asked to agree to the content of the notice.

发表后,将针对期刊发表的文章和任何引用文章进行作者姓名更改,无需提供文件、勘误通知或根据期刊的要求通知任何其他作者。
