The editorial board of the journal, when considering an article, checks the material using Antiplagiat (License agreement No. 4551 dated December 06, 2021), Advego Plagiatus, Etxt Антиплагиат and other programs. If plagiarism is identified, the COPE guidelines on plagiarism will be followed.

An author should ensure that they have written entirely original works, and if the author has used the work and/or words of others, then this has been appropriately cited or quoted. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable.

All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. Where there are others who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project, they should be acknowledged or listed as contributors. The corresponding author should ensure that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication.

An author should not in general publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. In general, an author should not submit for consideration in another journal a previously published paper.

In the event of simultaneous submission of a manuscript to different journals, the published article will be retracted (withdrawn from print).
