AI Policy

Artificial Intelligence (AI) may only be used as a technical tool to assist in manuscript preparation and management, such as language editing, paraphrasing, and reference management. AI cannot replace the intellectual responsibility of authors, editors, or reviewers.

AI tools must not be listed as authors and must not be used to generate research data, conduct scientific analysis, or interpret research results. Authors are required to clearly disclose any use of AI tools in the preparation of their manuscripts.

Editors and reviewers may use AI tools only for technical support, such as improving language clarity. However, AI must not be used to evaluate the scientific content of manuscripts or to process manuscripts through AI platforms that may store or reuse confidential material.

All parties involved in the publication process are responsible for maintaining the integrity and ethical standards of scholarly publishing. Any violation of this policy may result in editorial actions, including manuscript rejection or article retraction.
