Publication Ethics Statement
HJGRP is committed to upholding high standards of publication ethics and takes all possible measures against publication malpractice through a rigorous peer-review together with strict ethical policies. Any infringements of professional ethical codes, such as plagiarism, fraudulent use of data and bogus claims of authorship should be taken very seriously by the editors with zero tolerance.
It is therefore important to agree upon standards of expected ethical behavior for all parties involved in the act of publishing: the author, the journal editor, the peer reviewer, the publisher and the society. The Code of Conduct of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and COPE Flowcharts are being followed for Resolving Cases of Suspected Misconduct and irregularities.
