Publication Ethics
To ensure that high caliber scientific papers are added to the realm of academic publication, Peta International Journal of social Scince and Humanity accepts the duty of enforcing a rigorous peer-review process along with strong ethical principles and standards. There are instances of data manipulation, erroneous authorship credit, and similar offenses. PIJSSH takes concerns related to publication ethics extremely seriously, and our editors have received training on how to handle them with a zero tolerance approach.
Plagiarism
Content that is plagiarized will not be published. The submissions may be rejected if plagiarism is discovered throughout the peer review process. If plagiarism is discovered after the article has been published, we may provide a correction or retract the paper, as necessary. We have the right to notify authors' institutions about plagiarism discovered prior to or after publication.
Plagiarism is detected when the proportion of resemblance exceeds 25%. The Editor-in-Chief will be notified in such circumstances. Most crucially, obvious signs of plagiarism will result in prompt rejection.
Duties of Authors
- In the submitted article, the author must offer correct and truthful factual information gained from the study without any manipulation or deceptive presentation of the material.
- The author must guarantee that the article or material submitted has never been published before.
- If the author uses the work and/or words of other writers or researchers, they must be cited or quoted properly.
- Authors must add a statement or paragraph explaining the experimental procedures that confirms all proper animal subject research precautions were performed.
- When preparing the manuscripts, the author must follow the "Manuscript Preparation Instructions."
- Authorship must be confined to those who made a major contribution to the research or study's idea, design, execution, or interpretation.
- The author must identify the institution or person(s) that supplied research funding.
- For human subject research, authors must declare the ethical approval code and get informed permission.
- The author must disclose any conflicts of interest.
Duties of Editors
- The editors are in charge of evaluating the quality of the papers submitted for publication.
- During the evaluation process, the editors must not expose the name of the author(s) or reviewers to anybody.
- The editors must decide which material to publish based on its intellectual substance and compliance with the journal's criteria.
- The editors shall not reject any paper just because they have reservations about any aspect of the submitted work. They must uncover specific facts to dispel any questions or concerns.

Duties of Reviewers
- The reviewers must keep all submitted paper material secret and must not expose any aspect of the submitted paper to anybody other than those participating in the reviewing procedures.
- After receiving a manuscript, reviewers may learn that they have a vested interest in the submitted article because they are co-authors or know the author(s) personally. In such instances, they should notify the editors and decline to serve as reviewers.
- Reviewers should examine submitted papers in areas in which they specialize, taking into account the intellectual contents of the study, its data analysis, and the actual contents of the research piece. They must avoid from evaluating submitted papers based on their own illogical, personal judgment.
- Reviewers must point out relevant research that are significantly connected to the submitted article but that the author fails to include or include in his or her submitted paper throughout the assessment process. Reviewers are urged to report any similarities between the submitted work and other papers/studies to the editors.
