The validation of the work in question and its importance to researchers and readers must always drive such decisions. The editors may be guided by the policies of the journal's editorial board and constrained by such legal requirements as shall then be in force regarding libel, copyright infringement and plagiarism. The editors may confer with other editors or reviewers in making this decision.

Fair play
An editor at any time evaluate manuscripts for their intellectual content without regard to race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political philosophy of the authors.

Confidentiality
The editor and any editorial staff must not disclose any information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, potential reviewers, other editorial advisers, and the publisher, as appropriate.

Disclosure and conflicts of interest
Unpublished materials disclosed in a submitted manuscript must not be used in an editor's own research without the express written consent of the author.

Duties of Reviewers
Contribution to Editorial Decisions
Peer review assists the editor in making editorial decisions and through the editorial communications with the author may also assist the author in improving the paper.

Promptness
Any selected referee who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the editor and excuse himself from the review process.

Confidentiality
Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. They must not be shown to or discussed with others except as authorized by the editor.

Standards of Objectivity
Reviews should be conducted objectively. Personal criticism of the author is inappropriate. Referees should express their views clearly with supporting arguments.

Acknowledgement of Sources
Reviewers should identify relevant published work that has not been cited by the authors. Any statement that an observation, derivation, or argument had been previously reported should be accompanied by the relevant citation. A reviewer should also call to the editor's attention any substantial similarity or overlap between the manuscript under consideration and any other published paper of which they have personal knowledge.

Disclosure and Conflict of Interest
Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.

Duties of Authors
Reporting standards
Authors of reports of original research should present an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. Underlying data should be represented accurately in the paper. A paper should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behaviour and are unacceptable.

Data Access and Retention
Authors are asked to provide the raw data in connection with a paper for editorial review, and should be prepared to provide public access to such data (consistent with the ALPSP-STM Statement on Data and Databases), if practicable, and should in any event be prepared to retain such data for a reasonable time after publication.

Originality and Plagiarism
The authors should ensure that they have written entirely original works, and if the authors have used the work and/or words of others that this has been appropriately cited or quoted.

Multiple, Redundant or Concurrent 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 behaviour and is unacceptable.

Acknowledgement of Sources
Proper acknowledgment of the work of others must always be given. Authors should cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work.

Authorship of the Paper
Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. 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 appropriate co-authors and no inappropriate co-authors are included on the paper, and that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication.

Hazards and Human or Animal Subjects
If the work involves chemicals, procedures or equipment that have any unusual hazards inherent in their use, the author must clearly identify these in the manuscript.

Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
All authors should disclose in their manuscript any financial or other substantive conflict of interest that might be construed to influence the results or interpretation of their manuscript. All sources of financial support for the project should be disclosed.

Generative AI Policy

JMKI recognizes that Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) and AI-assisted technologies may support authors in improving the quality, clarity, and presentation of scholarly manuscripts. However, the use of such technologies must be transparent, ethical, and accountable. This policy applies to all authors, reviewers, editors, and editorial staff involved in the submission, peer review, and publication processes of JMKI.

1. The Use of Generative AI by Authors

Authors may use Generative AI or AI-assisted tools only to support limited aspects of manuscript preparation, such as language improvement, grammar checking, readability enhancement, reference formatting, or technical editing. The use of AI tools must not replace the authors’ intellectual contribution, critical thinking, data analysis, interpretation of results, or scholarly judgment.

Authors remain fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, validity, integrity, and ethical compliance of all content submitted to JMKI, including any part of the manuscript assisted by AI tools.

2. Mandatory Disclosure of AI Use

Authors who use Generative AI or AI-assisted tools during manuscript preparation must disclose such use in the manuscript. The disclosure should include the name of the tool, the version if available, the purpose of use, and the part of the manuscript in which the tool was used.

The disclosure may be placed in a separate section before the references, entitled:

Declaration of the Use of Generative AI and AI-Assisted Technologies

Example statement:

During the preparation of this manuscript, the author(s) used [name of AI tool] for [purpose, e.g., language editing, grammar checking, or improving readability]. The author(s) have reviewed and edited the output and take full responsibility for the content of the published article.

If no AI tools were used, authors may state:

The author(s) declare that no Generative AI or AI-assisted technologies were used in the preparation of this manuscript.

3. Prohibited Uses of Generative AI

Generative AI and AI-assisted tools must not be used to:

1. Generate or fabricate research data, images, tables, figures, statistical results, or experimental findings.
2. Create false, misleading, or unverifiable references.
3. Manipulate citations, references, or bibliometric information.
4. Replace the authors’ own analysis, interpretation, discussion, or conclusions.
5. Produce content that violates copyright, privacy, confidentiality, or ethical standards.
6. Misrepresent authorship, research contribution, or the originality of the work.
7. Generate peer review reports, editorial decisions, or reviewer recommendations without human assessment.

Any misuse of Generative AI may be treated as a violation of publication ethics and may result in manuscript rejection, correction, expression of concern, or retraction, depending on the severity of the case.

4. Authorship and Accountability

Generative AI tools, chatbots, large language models, or other AI-assisted technologies cannot be listed as authors or co-authors of a manuscript. Authorship is limited to human contributors who meet authorship criteria and are able to take responsibility for the integrity, accuracy, and originality of the work.

All listed authors must be able to approve the final version of the manuscript and accept responsibility for all parts of the work, including any content produced with the assistance of AI tools.

5. Use of AI in Figures, Images, and Research Data

If AI tools are used to generate, modify, enhance, or process images, figures, diagrams, datasets, or other research materials, authors must clearly disclose this use. Authors must ensure that AI-assisted image processing does not distort, misrepresent, or manipulate the original data or research findings.

For research involving image analysis, data mining, machine learning, or AI-based methods as part of the scientific methodology, authors must describe the tools, models, datasets, parameters, and procedures used in sufficient detail to allow reproducibility.

6. Use of AI by Reviewers and Editors

Reviewers and editors must maintain the confidentiality of submitted manuscripts. Unpublished manuscripts, review reports, author responses, or editorial correspondence must not be uploaded to publicly available Generative AI tools or third-party AI platforms that do not guarantee confidentiality, data privacy, and non-retention of submitted content.

Reviewers may not rely on Generative AI tools as a substitute for their own expert judgment. Peer review reports must reflect the reviewer’s independent assessment of the manuscript.

Editors may use AI-assisted tools for limited administrative or technical purposes, such as plagiarism screening, language checking, or workflow support. However, editorial decisions must always be made by human editors based on scholarly merit, reviewer comments, journal policies, and publication ethics.

7. Editorial Screening and Ethical Handling

JMKI may screen submitted manuscripts for possible unethical use of Generative AI, including fabricated references, inconsistent data, unusual writing patterns, plagiarism, image manipulation, or unsupported claims. The editorial team may request clarification from authors regarding the use of AI tools at any stage of the review or publication process.

If undisclosed or unethical AI use is suspected, the manuscript may be subject to further editorial investigation in accordance with publication ethics guidelines.

8. Final Responsibility

The use of Generative AI does not reduce the responsibility of authors, reviewers, or editors. Human accountability remains essential in all stages of scholarly publishing. Authors are responsible for ensuring that their manuscript is accurate, original, transparent, ethically sound, and compliant with JMKI publication policies.

Misconduct, Correction, & Retraction Policy

Referee Misconduct

Referee misconduct refers to any inappropriate, unethical, or unprofessional conduct committed by reviewers during the peer-review process. Such misconduct may range from relatively minor concerns, such as rude, biased, delayed, or unconstructive reviews, to more serious violations, including the misuse of confidential information, breach of anonymity, undeclared conflicts of interest, or the appropriation of an author’s ideas, data, arguments, or research findings.

Jurnal Manajemen Kesehatan Indonesia recognizes that reviewers hold a position of considerable trust and responsibility within the scholarly publication process. Reviewers are granted access to privileged and unpublished research materials, and their assessments may significantly influence editorial decisions. Therefore, the journal expects all reviewers to uphold the highest standards of confidentiality, integrity, objectivity, fairness, and professionalism.

The journal maintains a clear complaint-handling procedure for addressing allegations of reviewer misconduct. Complaints may be submitted by authors, editors, or other parties who identify possible misconduct during or after the review process. All complaints will be considered carefully and handled in accordance with the principles of fairness, confidentiality, and due process.

For minor forms of misconduct, such as inappropriate language, discourteous comments, excessive delays, or reviews that lack constructive academic value, the editorial team may remove offensive or irrelevant comments from the review report before forwarding it to the author. Reviewers who repeatedly submit poor-quality, late, biased, or unprofessional reviews may be removed from the journal’s reviewer database and will not be invited to review future manuscripts.

For serious allegations, including the suspected misuse of unpublished data, plagiarism of ideas, breach of confidentiality, or conflicts of interest that were not disclosed, the Editor-in-Chief may initiate a formal investigation. This may involve reviewing the relevant correspondence, consulting associate editors, requesting clarification from the reviewer concerned, and, where necessary, referring the matter to the reviewer’s institution or relevant ethical body. Appropriate actions will be taken based on the severity of the misconduct and the evidence available.

Corrections to Published Articles

Jurnal Manajemen Kesehatan Indonesia acknowledges that honest errors may occur in scientific research and scholarly publishing. When such errors are identified after publication, and when they do not invalidate the overall findings or conclusions of the article, the journal may issue a correction notice.

Authors are expected to promptly inform the Editor-in-Chief if they discover or are informed of factual errors, inaccuracies, or omissions in their published article. Corrections may also be initiated by editors, readers, or other parties when a substantive error is identified. The decision to publish a correction rests with the editorial team, based on the nature and significance of the error.

A correction notice will be published in the next available online issue of the journal. The online version of the article will be linked to the correction notice, and the correction notice will likewise be linked to the original article. Where applicable, correction notices will be indexed and connected to the original publication record in relevant indexing databases and repositories.

Retractions

Retractions are issued when there is clear evidence that the findings or conclusions of a published article are unreliable, either as a result of misconduct or honest error. Jurnal Manajemen Kesehatan Indonesia may consider retraction in cases involving, but not limited to, fabricated or falsified data, plagiarism, duplicate or redundant publication, unethical research practices, serious methodological flaws, unauthorized use of data, or other violations of publication ethics.

When concerns about an article are under investigation, but the evidence is not yet conclusive, the journal may publish an expression of concern. This notice informs readers that the integrity or reliability of the article is being examined while the investigation is ongoing.

All retraction notices will clearly state the reason for the retraction and, where appropriate, identify who is initiating it. Retraction notices will be published online and linked to the original article. When an article has already been included in a journal issue, the original article record will be retained to preserve the scholarly record. However, the article will be clearly marked as retracted. The PDF version may be replaced or watermarked with the phrase “Retracted Version” to ensure that readers are aware of its status.

In exceptional cases, such as those involving legal concerns, privacy violations, defamatory content, or risks of serious harm, the journal may remove the full text of the article from public access. In such circumstances, the article metadata, including the title and author information, will normally remain available, accompanied by a notice explaining that the article has been removed for legal or ethical reasons.

Retraction notices will be indexed, where possible, and linked to the original publication record in relevant databases, repositories, and indexing services. The purpose of retraction is not to punish authors, but to correct the scholarly record and maintain the integrity, transparency, and reliability of academic publishing.

Through these procedures, Jurnal Manajemen Kesehatan Indonesia reaffirms its commitment to ethical peer review, responsible editorial practice, and the preservation of academic integrity in scholarly communication.
