Publication Ethics & Malpractice Statement
Jurnal Manajemen dan Bisnis (JMB) is committed to upholding the highest standards of publication ethics and academic integrity. This statement is based on the principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) Best Practice Guidelines and Elsevier Recommendations. All parties involved in the publishing process—authors, editors, and peer reviewers—are expected to agree to and adhere to these ethical standards.
Ethical Mandate
Non-Authorship StatusAI Policy & Generative AI Guidelines
In accordance with COPE and international publishing ethics, Generative AI and AI-assisted technologies (such as ChatGPT, Large Language Models, or automated writing tools) CANNOT be credited as authors or co-authors on any manuscript submitted to JMB. Authorship implies legal responsibility and accountability for the accuracy, integrity, and originality of the research, which AI tools cannot accept.
• Disclosure Requirement Authors who use AI tools for editing, readability enhancement, or language polishing must explicitly disclose their usage in the Acknowledgments or Methods section.
• Originality & Responsibility Authors remain fully responsible for the entire content. AI-generated text or analysis submitted without proper verification or citation constitutes unethical publication behavior.
• Reviewer & Editor Confidentiality Reviewers and Editors are strictly prohibited from uploading submitted manuscripts into Generative AI tools to prevent breaches of confidentiality and copyright.
