The editors of the publication are guided by ethical norms in their activities, the list of which is not limited to the following, but necessarily includes them:
1. Impartiality. When making a decision on the publication of a scientific paper, the editors of the publication are impartial and guided by the reliability of its scientific significance, evaluating the intellectual content of the papers regardless of race, gender, religious views, social status, local and other criteria that are discriminatory towards the author. At the same time, scientific papers of authors from the Russian Federation are not considered and are not accepted for publication.
2. Confidentiality. Unpublished data obtained from papers submitted for consideration are not used for personal purposes and are not disclosed to third parties without the author's written consent.
3. Ethical norms. The editors of the publication do not allow the work to be published if there are sufficient grounds to believe that it is plagiarism or contains information and/or ideas that may offend other authors, certain groups of people (except citizens of the Russian Federation), as well as information and/or ideas that are intended to incite enmity.
4. Willingness to cooperate. The editors of the publication respond to appeals and claims related to the considered papers or published scientific works, as well as, when a conflict situation is detected, to take all necessary measures to restore the violated copyright and related rights.
Authors submitting scientific papers for publication in the publication are guided by the following ethical norms:
1. Credibility. Authors of scientific papers must provide only reliable results of conducted research; knowingly false or falsified research and materials are inadmissible.
2. Compliance with regulations. The submitted papers must meet the requirements formulated by the editors of the publication in electronic form using the submission form on the website.
3. Originality and compliance with the anti-plagiarism policy. The author must guarantee that he has submitted an original work for editorial review. If the author used the works or opinions of other scientists in his work, this should be properly documented. Plagiarism in any form (lack of citations, incorrect references and sources or an incomplete list of sources or bibliographic reference), as well as excessive citation, etc. is recognized as unethical behavior and is unacceptable.
4. Recognition of authorship and co-authorship. If individuals contributed significantly to the conception, planning, execution, or interpretation of the research being described, the author should credit their co-authorship of the work; a person who in a certain way contributed to the research highlighted in the article, but whose contribution is not so significant as to be included in the co-authors list, should be thanked in the work; the person who is the scientific advisor must be highlighted in the work, but he is not the author of the work and does not have copyright on the paper, is not indicated in the table of contents or next to the copyright sign, and also cannot independently make corrections in the work sent to publication; changing the authorship after submitting the work for editorial review contradicts the norms of academic integrity and the Code of Ethics of a Ukrainian scientist and is unacceptable.
5. Disclosure of conflict of interest. In the event of a conflict of interest, including a potential one, the author or co-authors must inform the editorial board as soon as such a conflict or its possibility becomes known to the author or co-authors.
6. Exposure of multiple or parallel publications. If the author wishes to carry out a repeated or parallel publication of a scientific paper, he must confirm that he is doing it not to intentionally increase the number of scientific publications, but only for the purpose of promoting scientific achievements, if it is appropriate; the author must inform the editors of the publication about the fact of repeated or parallel publication.
7. Disclosure of errors. If the author discovers fundamental errors or inaccuracies in his work at the stage of its review or after its publication, he must notify the editors of the publication as soon as possible and cooperate to publish a refutation or correction of the information.
