(In the field of publishing ethics, the Journal of Islamic Art Studies follows the latest publication by the advice from International scientific databases approved by the Ministry of Science and Research of Iran and uses similar systems to measure ethics of publishing and to prevent scientific and literary theft).

 

Conflict of Interest

- Conflicts of interest refers to any case that interferes with, or reasonably interferes with, complete and purposeful presentation, thorough review, editing decisions, or publishing research or non-research papers submitted to the Journal of Islamic Art Studies published by the Institute of Islamic Art Studies.

- Conflicts of interest exist when professional judgment of primary interests (research credibility) is affected by secondary interests. There is nothing immoral about mutual benefit but it must be stated clearly. All authors must state all conflicts of interest in their accompanying letter and in the "Conflicts of Interest" section when submitting. When authors have no conflict of interest, they should state: "The author or authors declare that they have no conflict of interest with respect to the author or publication of this article." The editor may request more information in this regard.

- Editors and reviewers are also required to declare any conflict of interest, and if there is a conflict of interest, they will be excluded from the review process.

- The policy of the Institute of Islamic Art Studies is that none of the editors of the journal should have a financial affiliation with the author/s.

- Expressing all conflicts of interest is essential for a transparent reporting of research. Failure to declare a conflict of interest can lead to the immediate rejection of an article. If the conflict of interest is not disclosed after publication, the Institute of Islamic Art Studies will act in accordance with International scientific databases approved by the Ministry of Science and Research of Iran.

- Conflicts of interest can be financial, non-financial, professional, or personal. Conflicts of interest can arise in relation to an organization or an individual.

Conflict of Financial Interests

Conflicts of interest include (but are not limited to):

- Receive a refund, expense, budget, or salary from an organization that may contribute to any kind of financial gain and loss from the publication of the article, equally now and in the future.

- Ownership of stock or inventory in an organization that may contribute to any financial gain or loss from the publication of the article, whether present or future.

- Ownership or action for patents related to the content of the article in question.

- Receive reimbursement, expenses, budget or salary from the organization that owns or patents the content of the article.

Conflict of Non-Financial Interests

- Conflicts of non-financial interest include but are not limited to political, personal, ideological, scientific, and intellectual matters.

Authorship and Composition

An author is generally regarded as a person who has made a significant intellectual contribution to the publication of a research.

ICMJE's recommendation is that article or book composition can be based on the following four criteria:

1- Significant assistance in understanding or designing the intended scientific work or collecting, analyzing, or interpreting data.

  1. Drafting or modifying the work in question, especially for significant intellectual content.
  2. Final confirmation of released version
  3. Agree on accountability for all aspects of the work to ensure that questions about the integrity or reliability of each part of the work are properly reviewed and analyzed.

In addition to answering parts of the work that the authors have completed, a writer should be able to identify which authors are responsible for what other specific parts of the work. Authors should also be sure of the integrity of the collaboration of fellow authors. All individuals selected as authors must meet all four criteria of authorship, and all those who meet these criteria must be identified as authors of the work in question.

Writing is not merely about contributing to fundraising, data collection, technical assistance, writing collaboration and overall association with the research team. Names of those who do not meet these four criteria should be mentioned in the "Acknowledgments" section.

Acknowledgments

The names of those who have contributed to the scientific work that do not meet these four criteria should be mentioned in the "Acknowledgments" section. The authors must ensure that anyone whose name is in the "gratitude" section is authorized to mention their name in the auxiliary section of the scholarly work in question.

Material and financial support must also be announced. All sources of funding and other support for the project or research concerned, including funds received from business partners, institutions and sources, must be reported. Counseling and financial resources paid directly to researchers should also be mentioned. The scholarly involvement of authors or anyone else who has contributed to the preparation of the content of the article should be announced along with their source of funding, as described in the guidelines of the Writers' Association.

Author Information

Author information is published by journals to make the authors and their institutions recognizable to the scientific community. Author information is also used to retrieve data from databases and bibliographic indexes, although many databases do not include author information or complete author information. We know that some authors have first or last names or middle names and some writers do not have middle names, but some of their names or surnames have already been used in another journal as their middle name. It is a policy of journals published by the Institute of Islamic Art Studies that publishes the author's information, including his names, suffixes, and prefixes in the same manner as the responsible author. To ensure the accuracy of the author's information and to avoid any errors about the author's name, spelling, and bibliographic database names and indexes, and to minimize changes in post-publication articles, the authors of the Journal Islamic Art Studies when submitting articles are required to review and approve a written submission that is automatically generated from the author's information. This includes how author information appears in databases such as PubMed or Scopus. Therefore, authors should record their information at the specified time of submission of the article in a way that is consistent with previous bibliographic information.

 

Author Alternations

Any changes to the authorship (i.e., arrangement, addition and removal of authors) after initial submission must be approved by all authors. Authors must decide and agree on the order of writing among themselves. In addition, any changes must be explained to the editor. In accordance with the International scientific databases approved by the Ministry of Science and Research of Iran, the Institute of Islamic Art receives written confirmation from all authors that they agree to any changes to the authorship of the article being submitted or published. This confirmation must be notified directly by email to any author. It is the author's responsibility to ensure that all authors agree to the proposed changes. If there is disagreement among the authors and no satisfactory agreement is reached, the authors should contact their agencies to resolve the problem. Resolving authorship disputes is not the editor's responsibility. Change in the writing of a published article can only be corrected by the publication of a corollary.

Unique ID

ORCID is a nonprofit and community-based effort to provide a registry of unique researcher identities and a transparent way of linking research activities and results to this identifier. Scope Author ID is another unique identifier. The Journal of Islamic Art Studies encourages the use of these unique identifiers to identify those who submit articles to journals or those who are selected as reviewers for review articles. Members of the Journal's editorial team have their own unique identities in their profile.

Citation

Research and non-research papers (e.g. theoretical, evaluation, and review) should have relevant and applicable texts in support of the claims presented in the article. Excessive and inappropriate self-citation or concerted effort by different authors to cite themselves in general is exceptionally inappropriate.

Authors should consider the following guidelines when preparing your paper:

- Any article in the article that relies on foreign source information should be cited. (meaning the author's own ideas or findings are not public knowledge)

- Authors should not invoke adaptations of the original work. For example, they should cite the original article rather than a review article that cited the original article.

- Authors need to make sure that their citations are accurate (that is, they must be sure that their quotes support their statements in the article and should not misrepresent anything else that the author does not support).

- Authors should not cite sources they have not studied.

- Authors should not rely on their publications or their friends, colleagues, or institutions.

- Authors should not only cite articles from one origin or country.

- Authors should not use too many citations to prove a point.

Ideally, authors should cite sources that have been peer-reviewed.

Duplicate release

Any article submitted to the Journal of Islamic Art Studies should be the original copy and the article, or important parts thereof, should not be reviewed by another journal. However, when there is a possibility of overlap or duplication, we ask the authors to be clear and explicit. Authors should announce any possible overlapping publications and upload these files to the article if possible. Authors should announce any possible overlapping publications and upload these files to the article if possible. Any overlapping releases should be mentioned. Any article not published and in print if it is cited or related to evaluation by the editor or reviewers should be made available upon request by the editor. The Institute of Islamic Art Studies reserves the right to judge publications that are potentially overlapping or excessive on a case-by-case basis. Generally, the submitted article should not be officially published in any journal or any other cited form. If this was justified at the time of posting, there may be exceptions in the form of posters or conference presentations.

The Journal of Islamic Art Studies follows ICMJE's policies.

Pre-publishing server and organizational repositories / authors

Sending a copy of the article to a pre-publishing server such as ArXiv, BioRxiv, Peer J PrePrints, or similar platforms (both commercial and non-commercial) is not considered as republishing. Journals published by the Institute of Islamic Art Studies will also review copies of the author's personal or corporate website.

Rewriting text (self-stealing)

Authors should be aware that duplication of text from their previous publications is overwritten text (also referred to as plagiarism) and in some cases considered unacceptable. When copying from previous publications by the authors themselves is necessary or unavoidable, it should always be reported in a transparent manner and be consistent with copyright requirements. If the submission contains text that has been published elsewhere, the authors should notify the editor in the cover letter.

Peer-reviewed

All research papers, and many other articles, published by the Institute of Islamic Art Studies publications are subject to a full peer-review process. This review usually includes two peer reviewers. Each of the journals may operate in different peer review processes. For a peer review policy on each of the journals, please refer to the journal's website.

Peer-review policy

All articles submitted to journals published by the Institute of Islamic Art Studies are evaluated by the editor and they decide whether the article is suitable for peer review. If the editor is one of the authors, or has any conflict of interest in any submitted article, is on the authors list, or has any other mutual interest in the particular submission, another editorial staff member assumes responsibility peer review supervision is assigned. Submitted articles that are considered appropriate are sent by independent experts for peer review. Editors will make a decision based on the reviewers' reports, and these reports will be sent to the authors along with the editor's decision on the article. The authors should note that even with a positive report, the concerns raised by other reviewers may substantially weaken the article and thus reject the article. All journals published by the Institute of Islamic Art Studies use a double-blind approach to arbitration. Both authors and reviewers remain anonymous.

Peer reviewers

Authors can nominate potential reviewers if they wish; however, the decision is up to the editor. Authors should not refer to recent associates or colleagues working in the same institution. Authors wishing to nominate a referee may refer to this issue in the accompanying letter and should, if possible, provide the institution's email address or information to assist the editor in verifying the nominated referee (for example, ORCID ID or Scopus ID).  Authors should not remove too many people, as this may hamper peer review. Please note that the editor may select the removed judges.

Deliberately distorted information, such as a referee's suggestion with a fake name or email address, may lead to the rejection of the article and may lead to further investigation in line with the abuse policy.

Confidentiality

The editors will treat all articles submitted to the journal in a confidential manner. Referees are also required to treat confidential submissions. Journals published by the Institute of Islamic Art Studies will not share articles submitted with the exception of cases of suspected misconduct with third parties. See the Abuse Policy for more information.

Misbehavior

The Institute of Islamic Art Studies is seriously considering all allegations of potential misconduct. Journals published by the Institute of Islamic Art Conformity follow the International scientific databases approved by the Ministry of Science and Research of Iran to deal with suspected misconduct. In cases of suspicious investigations or publishing misconduct, the editor may need to contact third parties, such as authors' institutes or ethics committees, and share submissions. The Institute of Islamic Art Studies may also seek International scientific databases approved by the Ministry of Science and Research of Iran.

Misconduct in Research

All research on human beings (including human data and human cases) and animals must be conducted within a proper ethical framework. (See Ethics and Satisfaction Policy for more). If there is a suspicion that the research is not conducted within an appropriate ethical framework, the editor may reject an article and notify third parties, such as the author/s and ethics committee/s.

In cases of proven misconduct in research, especially published articles, or when the scientific integrity of the article is significantly reduced, the articles may be discredited. Refer to Reform and Disclaimer Policy for more information.

Publishing Abuse

All journals published by the Institute of Islamic Art Studies follow the International scientific databases approved by the Ministry of Science and Research of Iran to deal with potential publishing misconduct.

Image Manipulation

All digital images in the submitted articles will be scrutinized for any signs of tampering with the instructions below. Manipulations that violate these guidelines may delay the acceptance of the article or lead to the denial or denial of the published article.

- No part of the image should be magnified, darkened, moved, deleted or displayed.

- Brightness, contrast, or color balance settings are acceptable if applied at each pixel of the image and as long as it does not obscure or eliminate information. Nonlinear settings (e.g. changes to gamma settings) should be specified in the figure description.

Any doubts during or after the arbitration process will be referred to the editor and he will request the author/s of the original data to compare with the images. If the original data is not provided, the submitted article may be rejected or discredited for a published article. Any case where data manipulation will affect the interpretation of the data will be rejected or discredited. Cases of suspected misconduct will be reported to the author/s.

Plagiarism

All articles in the journal will be reviewed prior to publication and we will follow the International scientific databases approved by the Ministry of Science and Research of Iran if plagiarism is detected.

Cases of piracy include, but are not limited to:

- Copy text directly from other sources

- Copy ideas, images, or data from other sources

- Reuse the text of your previous publications

- Using an idea from another source with a little language change

 If the plagiarism is detected during the peer review process, the submitted article may be rejected. If plagiarism is detected after publication, we reserve the right to issue a correction or revoke the article. We also reserve the right to notify authors' organizations about plagiarism both before and after publication.

Reforms and Disclaimers

It is seldom necessary to publish corrections or discredit articles published in its journals to maintain the integrity of the university's academic record for Tabriz University of Medical Sciences.

In accordance with accepted norms of the academic community, revisions or denunciations of published articles will be done by publishing a corollary or a refereed article, without modifying the original article except by adding a prominent link to the corollary or refereed article. The original article remains in the public domain and subsequently, the spelling or extradition will be widely indexed. In exceptional cases where the material in question violates certain rights or is offensive, we may have to remove those items from the site and archive sites.

For minor modifications to published articles, the lead author may publish his opinion on this article by posting a comment in the same article. This is only appropriate if the changes do not affect the results or conclusions of the article.http://wisdom.ihcs.ac.ir/data/cw/news/Manshour_Akhlagh_Pazhouhesh....121.jpg)

Reforms

Changes to published articles that affect the interpretation and conclusions of the article, but do not completely invalidate the article, will be available to the editor, who may publish a manuscript indexed and linked to the original article. Is to correct the article. Changes to the authorship of published articles are corrected and applied using a corollary. See copyright policy for more information.

Disclaimer

In rare cases, when scientific information in an article has been substantially depleted, it may be necessary to discredit published articles. In such cases, Islamic Art Studies will follow the International scientific databases approved by the Ministry of Science and Research of Iran.
