Ethics of journal policy

The editorial policy of the journal

The editorial policy of the journal "Musical Art in Educational Discourse" is aimed at adhering to the ethical standards of the international scientific community. The activities of the editorial board in this area are based on the recommendations of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and the European Association of Scientific Editors (EASE), as well as the experience of authoritative international journals and publishing houses.

An important condition for the adoption of an article to be published is the availability of new original scientific results that have never been published anywhere.

Large Language Models (LLMs), like ChatGPT, do not meet our authorship requirements. The attribution of authorship carries a responsibility for the paper that cannot be adequately applied to LLMs. The use of an LLM in research should be appropriately documented in the Methods section of the manuscript, or in a suitable alternative part if a Methods section is not available.

Any controversial issues (financial, academic, personal, etc.) are carefully considered by members of the editorial board. In case of confirmation of suspicion about possible plagiarism or falsification of the research results, the article is unconditionally rejected.
The author’s  rights are reserved without limitations.
All publishing ethics relations that arise between the authors and the editorial board of the publication and are not regulated by this document are governed by the international generally accepted standards of COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) and EASE  (The European Association of Science Editors).
