The Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO) 's Publication Ethics and Publication Malpractice Statement is based, in large part, on the guidelines and standards developed by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). The relevant duties and expectations of authors, reviewers, and editors of the journal are below.
Responsibilities of Authors
By submitting a manuscript to the Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO), the author(s) warrant that the manuscript is their original work and that it has neither been published previously nor is currently being considered for publication elsewhere. They also deserve that the sources of any ideas and words in the manuscript that are not theirs have been properly attributed through appropriate citations and quotes.
An author should not usually publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in multiple journals or publication venues. Such redundant publication is generally considered to constitute unethical publishing behaviour and, if discovered, may result in a manuscript under consideration being rejected or a published article being retracted.
Authors of manuscripts reporting on original research should present an accurate account of the work performed, accompanied by an objective discussion of its significance. Who should represent underlying data accurately in the manuscript? The manuscript should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. The fabrication of results and making fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behaviour and may cause rejection or retraction of a manuscript or published article.
When the manuscript reports on commercial software, hardware, or other products, authors must include a declaration at the beginning of the manuscript stating that no conflict of interest exists or describe the nature of any potential conflict. The manuscript should also disclose all sources of financial support for the research.
The author(s) of a manuscript agree that if the manuscript is accepted for publication in the Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO), the published article will be copyrighted using a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. This license allows others to copy, distribute, and display the copyrighted work freely and derivative based upon it under certain conditions.
Authors are responsible for obtaining written permission to include any images or artwork for which they do not hold copyright in their articles or to adapt any such images or artwork for inclusion in their articles. The copyright holder must know that the image(s) or artwork will be made freely available online as part of the article under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.
The authors' names should be listed on the article in order of their contribution to the article, and all authors take responsibility for their contributions. Only those individuals who have made a substantive contribution should be listed as authors; those whose contributions are indirect or marginal (e.g., colleagues or supervisors who have reviewed drafts of the work or provided proofreading assistance, and heads of research institutes/centres/labs) should be named in an "Acknowledgments" section at the end of the article, immediately preceding the Reference List. The corresponding author must ensure that all appropriate co-authors and no inappropriate co-authors are included in the article and that all listed co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the article and agreed to its publication.
When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in an article of his/them that has been published in the Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO), they must promptly notify the editors and cooperate with them to correct the article or retract it as appropriate.
Responsibilities of Reviewers
Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO) 's reviewers perform work for the journal on a volunteer basis. Given that most of these individuals are in full-time employment, their reviewing activities for the Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO) must, by necessity, not be their top priority. Reviewers are free to decline invitations to review particular manuscripts at their discretion, for example, if their current employment workload and other commitments make it prohibitive for them to complete a review in a timely fashion and do justice to the task in the available time frame. They should also not accept manuscript review assignments for which they feel unqualified.
Reviewers who have accepted manuscript assignments are generally expected to submit their reviews within one month. They should recuse themselves from the work if it becomes apparent to them at any stage that they do not possess the required expertise to perform the review or that they may have a potential conflict of interest in performing the assessment (e.g., one resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, institutions, or companies associated with the manuscript).
Privileged information or ideas obtained by reviewers through the peer review process must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents and not be shown to or discussed with others except as authorized by the Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO) Editor.
When conducting their reviews, reviewers are asked to do so as objectively as possible, refraining from engaging in personal criticism of the author(s). They are encouraged to express their views clearly, explaining and justifying all recommendations. They should always attempt to provide detailed and constructive feedback to assist the author(s) in improving their work, even if the manuscript is, in their opinion, not publishable.
Reviewers should identify relevant published work that has not been cited by the author(s) and any instances in which proper attribution of sources has not been provided. They should call to the responsible Editor's attention any significant resemblances between a manuscript under consideration and other published articles or papers of which they are aware, as well as any concerns they might have concerning the ethical acceptability of the research reported in the manuscript.
Responsibilities of Editors
The Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO) has ultimate responsibility for deciding if a manuscript submitted to the Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO) should be published and, in doing so, is guided by the journal's policies as determined by the Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO) editorial board and constrained by such legal requirements as shall then be in force regarding libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. The Editor may consult with the Associate Editor and other editorial team members, as well as with reviewers, in making publication decisions.
The editors will evaluate manuscripts for their intellectual content without regard to the race, colour, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political philosophy of the author(s). They will not disclose any information about a manuscript under consideration to anyone other than the author(s), reviewers and potential reviewers, and in some instances, the Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO) editorial board members, as appropriate. Additionally, the editors will make every effort to ensure the integrity of the blind review process by not revealing the identity of the author(s) of a manuscript to the reviewers of that manuscript and vice versa.
When evaluating a manuscript for publication, in addition to considering standard criteria about the rigour of the manuscript, the quality of its presentation, and its contribution to humanity's stock of knowledge, the editors will also seek evidence that ethical harms have been minimized in the conduct of the reported research. They will question whether the benefits outweigh the disadvantages in the particular study's case. Since the Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO) welcomes the submission of manuscripts from any country, it is necessary to recognize that laws and regulations regarding research ethics and ethical approval vary worldwide. As such, the editors may need to seek clarification from the author(s) and request that they supply a letter from the relevant institutional ethics committee or board that approved the research.
CORE's Guidelines will guide the editors for Retracting Articles when considering retracting, issuing an expression of concern about, and correcting articles published in the Journal of Mathematics Instruction, Social Research and Opinion (MISRO). They are committed to working closely with research organizations and institutions in line with CORE's advice on Cooperation between Research Institutions and Journals on Research Integrity Cases.
Ethical Oversight
In educational sciences and other fields such as medicine, researchers must comply with ethical rules while using human subjects, working on vulnerable populations or handling confidential data. The journal adheres to "Ethical Guidelines for Educational Research", published by the British Educational Research Association (BERA). We encourage authors who will submit their manuscripts to the journal to adopt these ethical guidelines and apply them in their research process.
Subject Consent
The journal follows the guidelines for authors/researchers specifying how they should declare the consent of publication from the study participants. The authors must obtain appropriate permissions to include the participants' personal information or data in the publication and meet all requirements of the laws and regulations concerning the privacy and security of personal information.
It is the responsibility of the authors/researchers to ensure that:
WMA Declaration of Helsinki – Ethical Principles for Medical Research Involving Human Subjects
Preamble
General Principles
Medical progress is based on research that ultimately must include studies involving human subjects.
Risks, Burdens and Benefits
Vulnerable Groups and Individuals
All vulnerable groups and individuals should receive specifically considered protection.
Scientific Requirements and Research Protocols
The protocol should contain a statement of the ethical considerations involved and indicate how this Declaration's principles have been addressed. The protocol should include information regarding funding, sponsors, institutional affiliations, potential conflicts of interest, incentives for subjects and information regarding provisions for treating and compensating subjects who are harmed as a consequence of participation in the research study.
In clinical trials, the protocol must also describe appropriate arrangements for post-trial provisions.
Research Ethics Committees
The committee must have the right to monitor ongoing studies. The researcher must provide monitoring information to the committee, especially about any serious adverse events. No amendment to the protocol may be made without consideration and approval by the committee. After the end of the study, the researchers must submit a final report to the committee containing a summary of the study's findings and conclusions.
Privacy and Confidentiality
Informed Consent
After ensuring that the potential subject has understood the information, the physician or another appropriately qualified individual must seek the possible subject's informed consent, preferably in writing. The non-written consent must be formally documented and witnessed if someone cannot express the license in writing.
All medical research subjects should be given the option of being informed about the general outcome and results of the study.
Use of Placebo
Where no proven intervention exists, the use of placebo, or no intervention, is acceptable; or
Where for compelling and scientifically sound methodological reasons, the use of any intervention is less effective than the best proven one, the use of placebo or no intervention is necessary to determine the efficacy or safety of an intervention and the patients who receive any intervention less effective than the best proven one, placebo, or no intervention will not be subject to additional risks of serious or irreversible harm as a result of not receiving the best-proven intervention.
Who must take extreme care to avoid abuse of this option?
Post-Trial Provisions
Research Registration and Publication and Dissemination of Results
Unproven Interventions in Clinical Practice
Principles of Transparency
The journal follows the guidelines specified by the World Association of Medical Editors (WAME): https://wame.org/policies.
