Data falsification/fabrication

Falsification of research includes changing or omitting data in order to make it fit with a desired outcome. Fabrication of research involves making up and reporting data. Both are considered forms of research fraud. When submitting a manuscript to AD ALTA, authors must ensure all data contained within their manuscript is accurate and correctly represents their work.

Plagiarism

Plagiarism occurs when an author presents data, text or the ideas of others as their own without the proper attribution or credit. Any manuscript containing plagiarized material submitted to AD ALTA will not be considered for publication. Authors must take care in ensuring they correctly attribute the work of others in all submissions. Reusing or recycling the author’s own previous work without the correct attribution is considered a form of self-plagiarism or text recycling and such cases will also not be considered for publication.

Duplication

All manuscripts submitted to AD ALTA must be original and not published or under consideration for publication elsewhere. This includes articles previously published in another language. Authors must clearly state to the EIC whether aspects of the work contained in the current submission has already been reported in a similarly related submission or publication. AD ALTA will accept unpublished work from an author’s thesis, however the thesis must be acknowledged as the source of the work on submission and adequately cited within the manuscript. It is advised the submitted manuscript contains unique aspects not included in the thesis. If work from a thesis has already been published this cannot be considered original work and will be considered a duplicate publication.

Redundancy

Where duplication involves reporting the exact same data in two or more publications, redundancy involves presenting substantially overlapping data in two or more publications. This includes borrowing or recycling from the authors’ previous work and publishing it again with some additional data.
