Alleged Research Misconduct

Research misconduct means fabrication, falsification, citation manipulation, or plagiarism in producing, conducting, or reviewing research and writing articles by the authors, or in reporting the results of the research. If the author is found to be involved in research misconduct or other serious irregularities involving articles that have been published in scientific journals, the Editor is responsible for ensuring the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record.

In cases of alleged misconduct, the Editor and Editorial Board will use COPE best practices to help them resolve complaints and deal fairly with misconduct. This will include an investigation of the allegations by the Editor. Submitted manuscripts found to contain such misconduct will be rejected. In cases where published papers are found to contain such misconduct, a retraction may be published and will link to the original article.

The first step involves determining the validity of the allegations and assessing whether they are consistent with the definition of research misconduct. This initial step also involves determining whether the individual alleging misconduct has any relevant conflicts of interest. If scientific misconduct or other substantial research misconduct is a possibility, the allegations are shared with the corresponding author, who, on behalf of all co-authors, is asked to provide a detailed response. Once the responses are received and evaluated, additional review and involvement of experts (such as statistical reviewers) may be sought. For cases where misconduct is unlikely, clarification, additional analysis, or both, published as a letter to the editor, and often including a correction notice and correction to the published article, are sufficient.

Institutions are expected to conduct appropriate and thorough investigations of allegations of scientific misconduct. Ultimately, authors, journals, and institutions have an important obligation to ensure the accuracy of the scientific record. By responding promptly to concerns about scientific misconduct, and taking necessary actions based on the evaluation of these concerns, such as corrections, retractions with replacement, and withdrawals, the journal will continue to fulfill its responsibility to ensure the validity and integrity of the scientific record.

Publication decisions

The editor of the Journal of Community Health Epidemiology is responsible for deciding which of the articles submitted to the journal should be published. The validation of the work in question and its importance to researchers and readers must always drive such decisions. Editors may be guided by the policies of the journal's editorial board and constrained by such legal requirements as shall then be in force regarding libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Editors may confer with other editors or reviewers in making this decision.

The Journal of Community Health Epidemiology will have a clear procedure for handling complaints against the journal, Editorial Staff, Editorial Board, or Publisher.
