Handling Allegations of Misconduct - Jurnal Pengabdian Berbagi Manfaat
Jurnal Pengabdian Berbagi Manfaat takes all allegations of research and publication misconduct extremely seriously and is committed to investigating any ethical concerns raised before or after publication. In full compliance with the framework specified in the COPE Core Principles, the editorial board addresses allegations including plagiarism, data fabrication or falsification, redundant/duplicate publication, unethical community engagement research, improper authorship attribution, and undisclosed conflicts of interest[cite: 4].
Investigation Procedure:
When an allegation of misconduct is submitted by a whistleblower, reviewer, or reader, the Editorial Board initiates a systematic and objective preliminary investigation following the official COPE Flowcharts on Misconduct[cite: 4]. The editor-in-chief will request detailed explanations and supporting evidence from the authors while maintaining strict confidentiality[cite: 4]. If necessary, the editorial team may consult external experts, institutional ethics committees, or research integrity officers to reach a fair determination, in according with the recommendations established in the COPE Guidelines on Sharing Information Among Editors[cite: 4].
