Journal Publication Ethics Guidelines

Continuous publication of articles in the Potential Journal. This is a reflection of the quality of the author's work and the institutions that support the writing. This article also adopts peer review to support and realize scientific method writing. It is therefore important to agree on expected standards of ethical behavior for all parties involved in publishing: authors, journal editors, peer reviewers, publishers, and the public.

Editorial Publication Decisions

The Potential Journal published by LPPM-BATAM UNIVERSITY is responsible for deciding which articles submitted to the journal must be published. Validation of the work in question and its importance to researchers and readers should always drive such decisions. Editors may be guided by the policies of the journal's editorial board and limited by applicable legal requirements regarding defamation, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. The editors may confer with other editors or reviewers in making this decision.

Justice

An editor at all times evaluates manuscripts for their intellectual content without regard to the author's race, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ethnic origin, nationality, or political philosophy.

Confidentiality

Editors and any editorial staff may not disclose any information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, expert reviewers, other editorial staff, and the publisher, as appropriate.

Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest

Unpublished material disclosed in a submitted manuscript may not be used in the editor's own research without the written consent of the author.
