Ethic

Our ethical framework is built upon the philosophy that academic publishing is a deeply human endeavor. We adhere strictly to the foundational guidelines set forth by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), but we articulate them through a lens of academic philanthropy, intellectual mentorship, and the advancement of human civilization. This document serves as a binding covenant among all actors in the Tadrisia ecosystem: the Authors, the Editors, the Reviewers, and the Publisher.

I. The Author’s Covenant:

Authors who submit their work to Tadrisia are the architects of educational and intellectual advancement. We expect our authors to honor the lineage of thought while pioneering new frontiers.

  • Originality as Authenticity: Manuscripts must be the genuine, unadulterated creation of the authors. Plagiarism, in any form—be it uncredited paraphrasing, self-plagiarism (salami-slicing), or the unacknowledged use of artificial intelligence in generating core arguments—is viewed as a breach of the intellectual trust. We utilize rigorous similarity-checking protocols, but our first line of defense is the author’s honor.

  • Data Integrity and Truth-Telling: The data underpinning the research must be accurate, reproducible, and gathered ethically. Fabrication or falsification of data is a disservice to the scientific community and the educational institutions that rely on our findings. Authors must be prepared to provide raw data upon editorial request.

  • Authorship as Shared Responsibility: Authorship is a profound recognition of intellectual contribution, not a courtesy to be gifted. Every listed author must have contributed substantively to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the study. All authors share collective accountability for the work’s integrity.

  • Transparency of Influence: Authors must transparently declare any financial, institutional, or personal conflicts of interest that might be construed to influence the results or interpretation of their manuscript.

II. The Editor’s Stewardship:

The Editorial Board of Tadrisia acts as the gatekeepers of quality and the nurturers of academic talent. Their role is not merely to judge, but to elevate.

  • Intellectual Meritocracy: Editors must evaluate manuscripts exclusively on their intellectual merit, originality, clarity, and relevance to the journal’s transdisciplinary scope. Decisions must be fiercely blind to the author's race, gender, institutional affiliation, geographical location, or political beliefs.

  • The Blind Guardian: Editors are sworn to protect the confidentiality of the submission. No information regarding a submitted manuscript will be disclosed to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, and the publisher until publication.

  • Navigating Conflicts: Editors must recuse themselves from considering manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships with any of the authors or institutions connected to the papers.

  • Restorative Vigilance: When ethical complaints, such as dual submission or data manipulation, arise, the editorial team commits to a swift, fair, and thorough investigation. We prioritize restorative academic justice—allowing for corrections and errata when genuine human error occurs, while unequivocally retracting work tainted by deliberate misconduct.

III. The Reviewer’s Mentorship: 

Peer review is the invisible engine of scientific progress. At Tadrisia, we consider our double-blind peer reviewers to be silent mentors rather than mere critics.

  • Constructive Rigor: Reviews should be conducted objectively. Personal criticism of the author is entirely inappropriate. Reviewers must express their views clearly with supporting arguments, aiming always to refine and strengthen the author’s fundamental thesis.

  • Sacred Confidentiality: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as highly confidential documents. They must not be shown to or discussed with others, nor can the unpublished ideas within them be used for the reviewer’s own research advantages.

  • Timely Stewardship: Recognizing the rapid pace of educational innovation, a reviewer who feels unqualified to assess the research or knows that its prompt review will be impossible must notify the editor immediately, excusing themselves from the process so the manuscript may find the right mentor.

  • Vigilance for Originality: Reviewers serve as the historical memory of our discipline. They must identify relevant published work that has not been cited and alert the editor to any substantial similarity or overlap between the manuscript under consideration and any other published paper of which they have personal knowledge.

IV. The Publisher’s Promise: 

As the publisher of Tadrisia, the Institute assumes the vital role of safeguarding the scholarly record.

  • Independence of the Archive: The publisher is committed to ensuring that advertising, commercial revenue, or political pressures have absolutely no impact or influence on editorial decisions.

  • Perpetual Access and Preservation: We are dedicated to the sustainable archiving of knowledge. The publisher ensures that all published works remain accessible to the global academic community, promoting open access where possible to bridge diverse fields of knowledge across borders.

  • Upholding the Covenant: The publisher stands ready to assist the editorial board in executing the COPE guidelines, providing the necessary legal and technological infrastructure to investigate ethical grievances and publish corrections, clarifications, retractions, and apologies when needed.

By submitting to, reviewing for, or editing Tadrisia, you are actively participating in a global endeavor to elevate the standards of academic discourse and enrich human civilization through uncompromising integrity.
