Plagiarism, fake peer review, authorship disputes and undeclared conflicts of interest damage a journal's reputation and can get it removed from indexing databases. ISPHE trains editors, reviewers and researchers to recognise these problems and deal with them using established guidance, including the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
Topics
- Authorship criteria and contributor roles
- Plagiarism, duplicate publication and text recycling
- Conflicts of interest
- Data fabrication and image manipulation
- Corrections, retractions and expressions of concern
- Spotting predatory journals and conferences
We also help journals write ethics policies and set up a process for handling allegations.
