PUBLICATION ETHICS LEGAL JOURNAL PRIMA has agreed to follow the ethical standards set by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). Authors must adhere to and pay attention to templates, plagiarism, duplicate publications, data falsification, citation manipulation, ethical approval, and Intellectual Property Rights Authorship. The author is the person who participated in the research and is sufficient to take public responsibility for all parts of the content. If authorship is attributed to a group, all authors must make substantial contributions to the following:

  • Research conception and design, data acquisition, data analysis, and interpretation;
  • Drafting of the manuscript and its revision; and
  • Final approval of the version to be submitted. Submission of a manuscript implies that all authors have read and approved the final version of the manuscript and consent to the submission of the manuscript to this journal.

All authors must take responsibility for the research's quality, accuracy, and ethics. Plagiarism Plagiarism is the practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and making them one's own. Submitted manuscripts must be the original work of the author. Duplicate (redundant) publication Duplicate publication is the publication of a paper that substantially overlaps with an already published paper without clear and visible reference to the previous publication. Manuscript submissions will be considered for publication if submitted solely to this journal and do not overlap substantially with the published article. Any manuscript with (almost) similar hypotheses, sample characteristics, methodology, results, and conclusions of the published article is a duplicate and prohibited, even if published in a different language. Truncating data from a "single study" to create multiple manuscripts without substantial differences should be avoided. Fabrication of Data Falsification, manipulation, or fabrication of data is an ethical violation and is prohibited. Citations Manipulations Only relevant citations are used in the manuscript. Irrelevant self-citation to increase author citations (h-index) or unnecessary citations to increase references are not allowed. Intellectual Property Rights Authors must comply with the law and ethics in treating research objects and pay attention to the legality of source materials and intellectual property rights. Conflict of Interest and Funding Source Authors must acknowledge all sources of institutional, private, and corporate financial support for the research in the manuscript and note any potential conflicts of interest. Review Process Acceptance of a manuscript implies that it has been reviewed and recommended by at least two reviewers, one of whom is usually from the Editorial team. Authors will usually be notified of acceptance, rejection, or need for revision within two weeks at most of receipt. Manuscripts are rejected if the content does not fit the scope of the journal, does not meet ethical standards (e.g., ghostwriting, plagiarism, duplicate publication, data falsification, and citation manipulation), does not meet the required quality, is poorly formatted, has incorrect grammar or ignores correspondence within three months. Manuscripts can also be rejected if two reviewers give negative notes. Accepted papers will be published in chronological order. The journal is published in April and October. However, online publication is done immediately after acceptance. The peer review process is double-masked, where the identity of the authors and reviewers are kept confidential. Information about their identity can only be provided with the consent of both parties. The reviewers must have Scopus, Sinta, and Scholar IDs and be listed accordingly in this journal. They must come from different institutions than the authors. Uncorrected Proof Uncorrected Proof will be sent to the corresponding author via email as a .doc or .rtf file (not .docx) to check and correct typographical errors. To ensure timely publication, corrected proofs must be returned within seven days. Accepted papers will be published online. COPYRIGHT Submission of a manuscript implies that the work submitted has not been previously published (except as part of a thesis or report or an abstract), that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, and that all co-authors have approved its publication. If and when the manuscript is accepted for publication, the author still holds the copyright and retains the publishing rights without restriction. Authors or others are allowed to reproduce the article as long as it is not for commercial purposes. For new inventions, authors are advised to manage their patents before publication. OPEN ACCESS This journal is committed to free open access that does not charge readers or their institutions for access. Readers are entitled to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full text of articles, as long as it is not for commercial purposes. DISCLAIMER No liability is assumed by the publisher and co-publishers, or by the editors for any injury and damage to persons or property as a result of actual or alleged defamatory statements, infringement of intellectual property rights or privacy rights, or product liability, whether as a result of negligence or otherwise, or from the use or operation of any ideas, instructions, procedures, products or methods contained in the material therein.
