Publication ethics and publication malpractice statementThe E-journal Organizational Psychology always tries to maintain high standards of ethics while publishing articles in our journal. For all parties involved in the publishing cycle (the author, the journal editor(s), the peer reviewer and the publisher) it is required to act upon standards of ethical behavior. Responsibilities of authors Reporting standards Authors reporting results 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 manuscript. A paper should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. 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. Parallel submission of the same manuscript to more than one journal constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Acknowledgement of sources Proper acknowledgment of the work of others must always be given. Authors should also cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work. The author (co-authors) guarantee that their paper does not infringe any third-party copyright. To avoid conflicts, the authors who use any materials, data, designs that constitute copyright property of a third party are required to present to the editorial office a written permission to use the said materials from their respective copyright holders. · The author (co-authors) are to include proper citations and references to all the sources, both printed and electronic, they used during preparation of the paper. The use of third-party texts without appropriate references acknowledging their authorship is not allowed. · In case fragments of third-party texts are used verbatim, they are to be formatted as quotations. · Whenever the author (co-authors) mention ideas, conclusions, models, or explanatory schemes proposed by others without quoting the original source verbatim, they still have to cite the respective source in the body of their paper, including the appropriate reference in the reference list. · The author (co-authors) are not allowed to use tables, graphs, figures, or other elements copyrighted by third parties without agreement of the respective authors or copyright holders. Authorship of a manuscript 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 coauthors. Where there are others who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project, they should be named in an Acknowledgement section. The corresponding author should ensure that all appropriate co-authors (according to the above definition) and no inappropriate co-authors are included in the author list of the manuscript, and that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication. 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 their interpretation in the manuscript. All sources of financial support for the project should be disclosed. Fundamental errors in published works Authors must use their best endeavors to ensure the material that they submit contains no fictitious data, reference omissions, or false statements.When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his/her own published work, it is the author’s obligation to promptly notify the journal’s Editor-in-Chief or publisher and cooperate with them to either retract the paper or to publish an appropriate erratum. Responsibilities of the journal editors Fair play Submitted manuscripts are evaluated for their intellectual content without regard to race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political philosophy of theauthors. Editors should guarantee the quality of the papers and the integrity of the academic record and be willing to publish corrections, clarifications, retractions and apologies when needed. Editors should ensure that all research material they publish conforms to internationally accepted ethical guidelines. Confidentiality

Responsibilities of peer reviewers Contribution to editorial decisions Peer review assists the Editor-in-Chief in making editorial decisions and, through the editorial communication with the author, may also assist the author in improving the manuscript.
