Publication Ethics

RandPunkt Journal follows the recommendations of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

1. Authorship and AI

Authorship is limited to those who made a significant contribution. AI tools must not be listed as authors; any use of AI must be disclosed.

2. Plagiarism and Originality

All manuscripts are screened for similarity before peer review. Preprints on arXiv do not constitute prior publication.

3. Peer Review and Editorial Diversity

Double-blind review is strictly enforced. To prevent institutional endogamy, authors from the publishing institution will not exceed 20% of published content.

4. Corrections and Retractions

Significant errors will be corrected or retracted following COPE guidelines.
