AI Usage Policy

AI Usage Policy
General Principles

Our journal follows the recommendations provided by STM (International Association of Scientific, Technical and Medical Publishers) and EASE (European Association of Science Editors) regarding the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in scholarly publishing.

Key Restrictions

No AI-Generated Conclusions: The use of AI tools to develop, formulate, or interpret research findings and conclusions is strictly prohibited. All scientific reasoning and final synthesis must be the result of human intellectual effort.

Author Responsibility: Authors are fully responsible for the accuracy, integrity, and originality of their work. AI cannot be listed as an author or co-author.

Mandatory Disclosure

Authors must provide a clear disclaimer if any AI or AI-assisted tools were used during the preparation of the manuscript (e.g., for language editing, data visualization, or literature search).

Disclosure Requirement: If AI was used, a dedicated section titled "Declaration of AI Use" must be included before the References, specifying the tool used and the nature of its application.
