Submissions

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.

• Authors who submit their manuscripts to JET journals must:
  
  - Accurately present their research findings and include an objective discussion of the significance of their findings.
  - Uphold accurate authorship, by including all and only those who qualify for authorship and clearly stating their contribution.
  - Disclose any facts that might be perceived as a possible conflict of interest at submission.
  - Present their data and methods with attention to detail. Data and methods used in the research need to be presented in sufficient detail in the manuscript so that other researchers can replicate their work. Raw data must be made publicly available unless there is a compelling reason otherwise (e.g., patient confidentiality).
  - Be aware that simultaneous submission of manuscripts to more than one journal is not permitted.
  - Obtain permission to publish from the copyright holder any previously published content (including quotations, figures, or tables).
  - Communicate errors and inaccuracies found after publication promptly.
  - The staff must not disclose any information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, other editorial advisers, and the publisher, as appropriate.

• Plagiarism
  Authors who submit their manuscripts must avoid the following important features which can assist in identifying different kinds of plagiarized content. These are:
  1. Reproduction of others' words, sentences, ideas, or findings as one’s own without proper acknowledgement.
  2. Paraphrasing poorly: Copying complete paragraphs and modifying a few words without changing the structure of original sentences or changing the sentence structure but not the words.
  3. Verbatim copying of text without putting quotation marks and not acknowledging the work of the original author.
  4. Properly citing a work but poorly paraphrasing the original text is considered unintentional plagiarism. Similarly, manuscripts with language somewhere between paraphrasing and quoting are not acceptable. Authors should either paraphrase properly or quote and in both cases, cite the original source.
  5. Higher similarity in the abstract, introduction, materials and methods, and discussion and conclusion sections indicate that the manuscript may contain plagiarized text. Authors can easily explain these parts of the manuscript in many ways. However, technical terms and sometimes standard procedures cannot be rephrased; therefore, Editors must review these sections carefully before making a decision.
