At IMRJR, our editorial policies ensure accuracy, fairness, and transparency in all our content, upholding the highest standards of integrity.
Copyright Policy
Copyrights for articles are retained by the authors, with first publication rights granted to the journal. Authors have the right to reuse, republish, archive, and distribute their articles after publication. The journal is not responsible for subsequent uses of the work.
Submission Policy
Submission of an article entails that the entire work illustrated has not been published previously, that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, and that its publication is approved by all authors. Also, there are no submission charges in our journal.
We insist on a rigorous viewpoint on the self-plagiarism. The self-plagiarism is plagiarism, as it fails to contribute to the research and science.
Data Archiving Policy
IMRJR archive is an accumulation of scientific research papers for a lifetime. All papers must have a data archiving statement and data sources must be cited in the reference list. Citation of datasets is permitted, provided the data repository meets the standards set out in our Data Archiving policy.
Data Sharing Policy
IMRJR promotes transparency and reproducibility in research by requiring authors to share data underlying their findings. Authors must provide access to all relevant data, including raw data and analysis scripts, upon publication. Exceptions may apply based on legal or ethical constraints, which authors must justify.
Electronic Correction Policy
The most recent correct version of the published article open accessible for a lifetime. The corrected version will be available only online version. The corresponding author should claim the correction request within 24 hours.
Format corrections, such as misalignment in block diagrams, entity flows, replacing a low-resolution image, table labels, and similar minor changes not involving scientific content, can be made at the prudence of IMRJR, without any kind of formal notification.
Conflict of Interest Statement
IMRJR requires authors, reviewers, and editors to disclose any potential conflicts of interest that could influence research or publication decisions. Authors must disclose financial relationships, affiliations, or other interests that could be perceived as influencing their work. Reviewers and editors must similarly disclose conflicts and refrain from handling manuscripts where conflicts exist. All disclosed conflicts are carefully evaluated, and appropriate actions, including recusal or transparency statements, are taken to uphold the integrity of the publication process. Confidentiality of disclosed conflicts is strictly maintained.
Publication charge policy/Article Processing Charge(APC)
IMRJR is charging the lowest fee for research publication. This Article Processing Charge (APC) comprises “article production and hosting, abstracting and indexing services, providing online tools for editors and authors”. The fee is payable ‘when your manuscript is editorially accepted and before publication’ from you/your funding agency/institution/organization.
Open Access Policy
Open Access is a publishing model that provides immediate, worldwide, barrier-free access to the full text of research articles without requiring a subscription to the journal in which these articles are published. Accordingly, readers are allowed to copy, use, distribute, transmit and display the work publicly and to make and distribute derivative works, in any digital medium for any responsible purpose, subject to proper attribution of authorship.
Withdrawal & Retraction Policy
The authors can withdraw their articles before the publication and registration process. In the event of a retraction, the author can retract their paper after publication, and the publication fee cannot be refunded. Each author of a paper has to sign a retraction request as per the IMRJR retraction policy.
In other cases, if the manuscript violates or is against IMRJR publication ethical standards (replicating, plagiarism, exploiting forgery data) then it will be removed from our repository without any notification.
