Studies in Conflict & Terrorism – Taylor & Francis Academic Publishing
The process of publishing and selecting the research for it depends on several steps that authors have to undertake. The direction of the research and the option of publishing – open access or not should be evaluated at the initial stage. For this part of the process, the main aim is to carefully evaluate the direction of the research, assuming that open access is beneficial for beginners in the field that can provide a wider audience. The application procedure for this journal is managed through the Taylor & Francis application site. An article for this editorial should be between 8,000 and 12,000 words in length (Taylor & Francis, n.d.). After the editor has evaluated an article for acceptability, it will be double-blind peer-reviewed by anonymous peer reviewers.
Journal of American Medical Association Network (JAMA)
JAMA is one of the world’s most widely-read medical periodicals. Articles for submission may cover a wide range of topics chosen by the author and may be relevant to general health care in the United States (JAMA Network, n.d.). The online manuscript submission and review mechanism is required for all papers. The entire contact information of each author is necessary at the time of submission. The corresponding author will get an acknowledgment of receipt and a manuscript number after submitting the work (JAMA Network, n.d.). An online system will allow authors to follow the progress of their papers.
Journal of Agriculture and Food Research – Elsevier
This journal is open accessible, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to agricultural and food science research (Journal of Agriculture and Food Research, n.d.). Submissions include full-length research papers, reviews, brief communications, viewpoints, and comments. The editors will prioritize publishing papers in this multidisciplinary subject since the journal is particularly interested in research that connects agriculture and food (Journal of Agriculture and Food Research, n.d.). Special issues devoted to a certain subject area, as well as conference proceedings, are also being evaluated for publication.
Ethical Considerations in research
Analysis of study data, authorship, and plagiarism are three of the most critical ethical considerations in research (Armond et al., 2021). The researcher is in charge of properly analyzing the data gathered. While the erroneous analysis does not always imply wrongdoing, omitting a finding on purpose might lead to misunderstanding and mislead readers (Armond et al., 2021). Fabrication of data is considered unethical. All sources used to collect and analyze data must be properly disclosed to guarantee accurate data analysis (Armond et al., 2021). If this is not done, readers may misinterpret the results.
It is widely acknowledged that the author has to contribute significantly to the intellectual content, including the study’s design and development, as well as data collection, analysis, and interpretation. The author is also responsible for ensuring that the document is genuine work and accepts public accountability (Armond et al., 2021). Finally, the author is generally involved in the paper’s preparation or modification and the approval of the submitted work. It is vital to select early on in a study’s design who will be acknowledged as authors, co-authors, and recognized.
Plagiarism can vary from submitting a whole essay under “new” authorship, often in a foreign language, to exploiting someone else’s published and unpublished ideas without citation, including applications for research funds (Armond et al., 2021). It is consequently critical to declare all sources of information, and permission must be obtained if a considerable amount of other people’s written or visual content is to be utilized.
