Publication Ethics.

Editors of PSG journals are accountable for published content. They must ensure the quality of published material, champion freedom of expression, and maintain the integrity of the academic record.

• Editorial decisions are based solely on intellectual content.
• Submitted manuscripts are treated as confidential documents.

Peer review is the essential method by which PSG ensures the validity of scholarly publishing. Submitted research articles undergo rigorous review by independent expert referees.

Authors must ensure that submitted work is original. Plagiarism in all forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable.

Authors, reviewers, editors, and editorial board members must disclose conflicts of interest when fulfilling their roles in the publication process.

If a published work contains a significant error, PSG will initiate investigation and, if necessary, publish an erratum, corrigendum, or initiate a retraction in accordance with recognized publishing guidelines.
