Jurnal Impresi Indonesia Journal is committed to maintaining integrity, independence, objectivity and transparency in the entire scientific publication process. A conflict of interest, also known as competing interests, can occur if financial, personal, professional, academic, institutional or other interests have the potential to influence or are reasonably perceived to influence the implementation of community service activities, interpretation of results, assessment of manuscripts, editorial decisions or publication of articles.

 

The existence of certain relationships or interests does not necessarily indicate an ethical violation. However, any relevant interests must be disclosed transparently so that editors, reviewers and readers can assess their possible influence on the content and process of article publication.

 

 

All authors are required to disclose actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest affecting community service activities and publication of manuscripts. Conflicts of interest may include, but are not limited to:

 

• Financial interests, such as funding, honorarium, consultancy, share ownership, or financial support from parties with an interest in the results of activities.
• Professional and institutional interests, such as employment relationships, institutional collaboration, program partnerships, or organizational involvement that have the potential to impact the objectivity of reporting.
• Personal interests, such as family relationships, friendships, or other personal relationships that may influence the assessment and interpretation of results.
• Academic or intellectual interests, such as mentoring relationships, academic competition, ownership of intellectual property, or other interests related to the results of activities and publications.
• Organizational or commercial interests, including relationships with sponsors, product or service providers, implementing partners, or parties who could potentially benefit from the publication.
• Authors are required to include a Conflict of Interest Statement in the submitted manuscript. If there is a conflict of interest, the author must explain the form of interest clearly and concisely. If there is no conflict of interest, the author must state this explicitly.

 

Disclosure of conflicts of interest does not replace the obligation to include funding sources in the Funding Statement. These two statements have different purposes and must be submitted in accordance with Jurnal Impresi Indonesia provisions.

 

 

Reviewers are required to disclose to the editor any relationships or interests that may affect the independence and objectivity of assessment of the manuscript. Conflicts of interest can be in the form of professional, institutional, financial, personal, or academic relationships with the author or other parties related to the manuscript.

 

Reviewers must refuse a review invitation or withdraw from the review process if a conflict of interest has the potential to interfere with the objectivity of the assessment. Reviewers are also obliged to maintain the confidentiality of manuscripts and not use information obtained during the review process for personal or other parties' interests.

 

 

Editors and members of the editorial board are obliged to maintain the independence of editorial decisions and disclose any conflicts of interest related to manuscripts being processed. Editors who have a conflict of interest should not be involved in evaluating or making editorial decisions on the manuscript.

 

In such circumstances, management of the manuscript and editorial decisions should be transferred to another editor who has no conflict of interest. Decisions to accept or reject articles should be based on relevance to the journal's focus, scientific quality, originality, integrity, and the results of the review process, not on personal, institutional, commercial interests, or particular relationships.
