Research Ethics

The International Journal of SocioHuman Multidisciplinary Research (IJSMR) is committed to promoting ethical and responsible research practices.

Authors are expected to conduct and report their research honestly, transparently, and responsibly.

Research involving human participants, personal data, sensitive information, or other ethically regulated activities must comply with applicable ethical requirements. Where required, authors should obtain appropriate ethics approval and informed consent before conducting the research.

Authors must not engage in:

• Fabrication or falsification of research data

• Plagiarism or inappropriate use of others' work

• Duplicate or redundant publication

• Manipulation or misrepresentation of research findings

• Other forms of academic or research misconduct

Where applicable, manuscripts should include information concerning ethics approval, informed consent, funding, conflicts of interest, and other relevant declarations.

The editorial team may request supporting documentation where necessary and may take appropriate action if ethical concerns are identified before or after publication.
