Sentriva Publishers is committed to maintaining the highest standards of publication ethics and research integrity. Authors, editors, reviewers, and publishers share the responsibility of ensuring that published research is accurate, transparent, and ethically conducted.
Authors should conduct and report research honestly, accurately, and transparently. Fabrication, falsification, or manipulation of research data is considered serious publication misconduct.
Submitted manuscripts must represent original work and should not have been published previously or be under consideration by another journal or publisher.
Authorship should be limited to individuals who have made substantial scholarly contributions to the research and approved the final manuscript prior to submission.
Research involving human participants or animals must comply with recognized ethical standards and include appropriate ethics approval and informed consent where applicable.
Authors are responsible for maintaining accurate research records and should retain supporting data when requested during editorial assessment or after publication.
When significant errors or ethical concerns are identified after publication, appropriate corrections, expressions of concern, or retractions may be issued to preserve the integrity of the scholarly record.
Ethical publishing is a shared responsibility among authors, reviewers, editors, and the publisher. All parties are expected to maintain honesty, confidentiality, objectivity, and professionalism throughout the editorial and publication process.
Sentriva Publishers is committed to protecting academic integrity and promoting original scholarly work. All submitted manuscripts are expected to be the authors' own work and properly acknowledge the contributions of others through appropriate citation and referencing.
Manuscripts submitted for publication must be original and should not contain copied, fabricated, or duplicated content without appropriate acknowledgement or permission.
Submitted manuscripts may be evaluated using plagiarism detection software before entering peer review to assess textual similarity and originality.
Authors must not submit the same manuscript simultaneously to more than one journal or publisher. Duplicate submissions are considered unethical publishing practice.
Authors should avoid excessive reuse of their previously published work without proper citation or disclosure. Previously published material must be clearly identified.
Ideas, figures, tables, data, and text obtained from other sources must be properly cited according to the citation style required by the journal.
Manuscripts with significant plagiarism or unethical publication practices may be rejected, withdrawn from review, or subject to additional editorial investigation.

Sentriva Publishers is committed to maintaining transparency and objectivity throughout the editorial and publication process. All participants, including authors, reviewers, editors, and editorial board members, should disclose any actual or potential conflicts of interest that could influence their professional judgment.
Authors should disclose any financial, institutional, personal, or professional relationships that may be perceived to influence the research or its interpretation.
Reviewers should decline review invitations if they have any competing interests or relationships that may affect their impartiality or confidentiality.
Editors should recuse themselves from handling manuscripts where personal, financial, academic, or institutional conflicts may compromise objective editorial decisions.
Editorial board members are expected to maintain editorial independence and disclose any conflicts that may affect their responsibilities.
A conflict of interest does not necessarily prevent publication. However, complete disclosure enables editors and readers to assess research objectively and promotes transparency in scholarly communication.
Disclose all relevant competing interests.
Editorial decisions are based solely on scholarly merit.
All disclosures are handled appropriately during review.
Conflicts must never influence editorial decisions.
Sentriva Publishers supports the responsible and transparent use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in scholarly publishing. Authors remain fully accountable for the accuracy, originality, integrity, and ethical compliance of all submitted manuscripts, regardless of whether AI tools were used during manuscript preparation.
AI tools may be used to assist with language editing, grammar correction, readability improvement, or formatting, provided that authors carefully review and verify all generated content.
Artificial intelligence systems or language models cannot be listed as authors because they cannot accept responsibility for the accuracy, integrity, or originality of scholarly work.
Authors should disclose the use of AI tools when they have made a significant contribution to manuscript preparation, image generation, or content development.
Authors remain solely responsible for the scientific accuracy, originality, citations, data interpretation, ethical compliance, and final approval of all content submitted for publication, including material assisted by AI technologies.
Editors and reviewers should not upload confidential manuscript content into publicly available AI systems if doing so could compromise author confidentiality, intellectual property, or the integrity of the peer review process.
Artificial intelligence should be regarded as an assistive tool rather than a substitute for scholarly judgment. Authors are expected to critically evaluate all AI-generated material, verify factual accuracy, ensure proper citation of sources, and maintain full responsibility for the submitted manuscript.
By following these editorial policies, authors contribute to maintaining the highest standards of scientific integrity, ethical publishing, and transparent scholarly communication.
