Conflict of Interest

Psikohumaniora: Jurnal Penelitian Psikologi is committed to maintaining transparency, objectivity, and integrity throughout the publication process. All authors, editors, and reviewers are required to disclose and appropriately manage any actual, potential, or perceived conflicts of interest that could influence, or reasonably be perceived to influence, the research, peer-review process, or editorial decisions.

1. Authors

All authors must disclose any financial or non-financial interests that may influence, or be perceived to influence, the research findings, interpretation, or publication of their manuscript. Relevant interests may include employment, consultancies, honoraria, research grants, funding, personal or professional relationships, institutional affiliations, competing research interests, intellectual property, and other relationships that could affect the objectivity of the work.

All sources of financial support for the research must be clearly acknowledged in the manuscript. Authors must ensure that their declarations are accurate, complete, and transparent.

If no conflicts of interest exist, authors should include the following statement in their manuscript:

“The authors declare no conflict of interest.”

If conflicts of interest exist, authors must provide a clear statement describing the nature of the conflict and, where appropriate, the measures taken to manage it.

2. Editors

Editors must disclose any actual, potential, or perceived conflicts of interest relating to submitted manuscripts. An editor who has a conflict of interest must not participate in the evaluation or editorial decision-making process for the manuscript concerned. The manuscript should be reassigned to an independent editor who can ensure an objective and impartial assessment.

Editors must not use unpublished information, data, or ideas obtained through the editorial process for their own research or personal advantage without the author's express written consent.

3. Reviewers

Reviewers must disclose any actual, potential, or perceived conflicts of interest before accepting a review assignment. Conflicts may arise from financial interests, personal relationships, professional collaborations, institutional affiliations, academic competition, or other connections with the authors, organizations, or institutions associated with the manuscript.

Reviewers who identify a conflict of interest that could compromise their impartiality must promptly inform the editor and decline or withdraw from the review process. Reviewers must maintain the confidentiality of submitted manuscripts and must not use privileged information or ideas obtained during peer review for personal or professional advantage.

4. Editorial Management

Psikohumaniora is committed to ensuring that editorial decisions are based on the manuscript's scholarly quality, originality, methodological rigor, relevance, and contribution to psychological research. Advertising, reprints, or other commercial revenue must not influence editorial decisions.

The journal will assess disclosed conflicts of interest and take appropriate measures to safeguard the fairness, independence, and integrity of the editorial and peer-review processes.

Failure to disclose relevant conflicts of interest or the provision of inaccurate declarations may result in further editorial investigation and appropriate action in accordance with the journal's publication ethics policies.

By submitting a manuscript to Psikohumaniora, authors confirm that all relevant conflicts of interest and sources of financial support have been disclosed accurately and transparently.
