Conflicts of interests

 | Post date: 2024/09/1 | 
All articles that are submitted by GeoRes Editorial Board members and the Editor-in-Chief are under the same reviewing process as the other articles. In the cases that a reviewer suspects an undisclosed conflict of interest in a submitted manuscript or a reader suspects an undisclosed conflict of interest in a published article, GeoRes follows the Afarand Best Practice Statement, which is according to COPE’s guidelines.

Conflicts of interest and procedures for handling them, whether discovered before or after publication, are as follows:
- Readers can decide whether an author's relationships and activities are relevant to the paper's topic. Transparent disclosures are necessary for these judgments. Authors of GeoRes must make thorough disclosures to show their dedication to transparency, trust, and faith in the scientific method.
- GeoRes editors pay close attention to the most obvious forms of conflict, such as financial relationshipspersonal rivalries and friendshipsacademic competitions, and intellectual beliefs.
- GeoRes authors are not allowed to agree with study sponsors, both for-profit and nonprofit, that interfere with authors' access to all of the study's data or interfere with their ability to analyze and interpret the data and prepare and publish manuscripts independently when and where they choose. This academic freedom principle is violated by rules that specify where authors may publish their work. An agreement must be given to the journal in confidence by the authors of GeoRes. All manuscripts submitted to GeoRes must have each author's ICMJE Form for Disclosure of Potential Conflicts of Interest.
- GeoRes will not accept submissions that purposefully fail to disclose relationships or activities listed on the journal's disclosure form because doing so constitutes misconduct.
- In cases where a reviewer suspects an undisclosed conflict of interest in a submitted manuscript or a reader suspects an undisclosed conflict of interest in a published article, the GeoRes Editorial Team follows COPE's guidelines.
