GeoRes is owned by Amaiesh & Tose e Shargh Co, Iran, and is managed and published by Afarand Scholarly Publishing Institute.
The following are Afarand guidelines for protecting the responsibility and authority of editors-in-chief and owners:
- The conditions of the editor-in-chief's employment, including authority, responsibilities, term of appointment, and mechanisms for resolving conflict, are explicitly stated and approved by both the editor and owners before the editor is appointed.
- Editors-in-chief have full authority over the journal's editorial content, generally called "editorial independence." Owners do not interfere in evaluating, selecting, or editing individual articles directly or by creating an environment in which editorial decisions are strongly influenced.
- Editorial decisions are based mainly on the validity of the work and its importance to readers, not the journal's commercial success. - Editors are free to express critical but responsible views about all aspects of medicine without fear of retribution, even if these views might conflict with the publisher's commercial goals. To maintain this position, editors seek input from various advisors, such as reviewers, editorial staff, an editorial board, and readers.
- Editors-in-chief establish procedures that guard against the influence of commercial and personal self-interest on editorial decisions.
- Owners have the right to hire and fire editors-in-chief, but they dismiss them only for substantial reasons, such as a pattern of irresponsible editorial decisions, scientific misconduct, disagreement with the journal's long-term editorial direction, or personal behavior (such as criminal acts) that are incompatible with a position of trust. Furthermore, any evaluation on which hiring or firing is based should be performed by a panel of independent experts rather than a small number of executives of the owning organization.
- Editors-in-chief report to the highest governing body of the owning organization, not its administrative officers. This body makes major decisions regarding the editor's employment with open discussion and time to hear from all interested parties. Some owners have found it useful to appoint an independent board to advise them on major decisions regarding their editor and journal.
- Editors resist any actions that might compromise these principles in their journals, even if it places their position at stake. If major transgressions occur, editors draw them to the attention of the international medical community.
