Corrections and retractions

Submitting their paper the authors undertake an obligation to provide prompt retractions or correction of errors in published works. The reviewers’ remarks should be clearly answered and inserted in the paper if acceptable. The authors should submit the final version of the paper prepared in the journal format and style.

If, after an investigation, there are valid concerns, the authors concerned will be contacted under their given email address and given an opportunity to address the issue. Depending on the situation, this may result in the journal’s implementation of the following measures, including, but not limited to:

• If the manuscript is still under consideration, it may be rejected and returned to the author.
• If the article has already been published online, depending on the nature and severity of the infraction:
  a) an erratum/correction may be placed with the article.
  b) an editor’s note or editorial expression of concern may be placed with the article.
  c) or, in severe cases, retraction of the article may occur.
