The Frontiers of Multidisciplinary Exploration (FME) is committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in academic publishing. All authors, reviewers, and editorial board members must adhere to ethical guidelines to ensure integrity, transparency, and accountability in research dissemination.
Ethical Guidelines for Authors: Authors must follow ethical publishing practices, including proper citation of sources, accurate data representation, and adherence to international research ethics standards. Any form of research misconduct, such as data fabrication, falsification, or duplicate submission, is strictly prohibited.
Plagiarism Prevention: FME uses iThenticate/Turnitin to check for plagiarism and similarity index. The maximum permissible limit is 20%, with no more than 5% similarity from a single source. Manuscripts exceeding these limits will be sent back for revision or rejected.
Conflict of Interest Disclosure: Authors, reviewers, and editorial board members must disclose any potential conflicts of interest that could influence the research or publication process. The journal ensures that there are no conflicts between governance, editorial board members, reviewers, and authors.
AI-Generated Content Policy: FME has a strict policy regarding the use of AI tools in research writing. While AI may assist in data analysis and language enhancement, authors must ensure that AI-generated content does not compromise originality, scientific integrity, or ethical standards. Any use of AI tools in manuscript preparation must be clearly disclosed in the submission.
