Publication Ethics & Malpractice Statement

ASES International Journal of Educational Sciences (ASES EDUSCI) adheres to and applies the principles and guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) throughout its publication processes.

The journal operates a double-blind peer review system, and all editorial decisions are made in accordance with the principles of editorial independence, based solely on scientific quality, originality, and ethical compliance.

ASES EDUSCI maintains zero tolerance toward ethical misconduct, including plagiarism, data fabrication or falsification, duplicate publication, salami slicing, and conflicts of interest. In cases of ethical violations, manuscripts are rejected and, when necessary, the authors’ institutions may be informed. Editors and reviewers may request raw data and ethics approval documents when required.

Authors guarantee that their submissions are original, not under review elsewhere, and conducted in compliance with ethical standards. Studies involving human and/or animal subjects must include ethical committee approval, clearly stated in the manuscript.

Reviewers evaluate manuscripts impartially and confidentially within their areas of expertise and must declare any conflicts of interest.

If errors, ethical violations, or malpractice are identified in published articles, corrections, retractions, or expressions of concern are handled in accordance with COPE guidelines.
