JoSS Response to Discovery or Allegation of Unethical Publishing Conduct describes the steps JoSS will take to address discovered alleged or possible breaches of these and other publishing standards. Duties of the Editor-in-Chief (EiC), Associate Editors (AEs), and Technical Area Editors (TAEs) Fair Play and Editorial Independence In their respective roles, the Members of the Editorial Board (the EiC and AEs) and JoSS TAEs are all responsible for making publishing decisions related to article submissions to JoSS. These Editors are expected to evaluate submitted manuscripts in a fair and neutral manner, without bias or conflict of interest. Their analysis and decision-making should be on the basis of the submissions&#8217; academic merit and presentation, without regard to the authors\u2019 race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnic origin, citizenship, religious belief, political philosophy or institutional affiliation. Preliminary publishing decisions are based on such factors as: relevance to the Journal&#8217;s scope; importance to the field of study; originality and integrity of the manuscript; accurateness of the reference cites; and clarity of the presentation of the subject. Decisions to edit and publish are not to be determined by the policies of governments or any other agencies outside of the journal itself. Confidentiality Members of the Editorial Board (the EiC and AEs) and TAEs will not disclose any information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, potential reviewers, other editorial advisers, and the publisher or publisher&#8217;s staff, as appropriate. Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest TAEs and Editorial Board members will not use unpublished information disclosed in a submitted manuscript for their own research purposes without the Authors\u2019 explicit written consent. Privileged information or ideas obtained by Editors as a result of handling the manuscript will be kept confidential and not used for their personal advantage. TAEs and other Editors will recuse themselves from considering manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships\/connections with any of the Authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers. In such cases, the EiC will identify another Editor to handle the manuscript. Publication Decisions The EiC and TAEs will ensure that all submitted manuscripts being considered for publication undergo peer review by at least two Reviewers who are experts in the particular field.
