Publication Ethics

Publications-Ethics

The International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) states that the readers are to be assured, that what they are reading is original. Any submitted work that overlaps with already published or under review or in the press or in any electronic media submission will be considered a duplicate or redundant publication (http://www.icmje.org/recommendations/browse/publishing-and-editorial-issues/overlapping-publications.html). Duplicate or redundant publication is a violation of the APA Ethics Code(https://www.apa.org/ethics/code) hence, such submissions will be immediately rejected. If PUJHSR had published an article without being aware of the violation, a notice about the ethical violation and duplicate submission will be published.
