Ghostwriting firewall

The editorial office of the scientific journal "Kultura i Wychowanie" has implemented a procedure to secure the originality of scientific publications to counteract reprehensible practices called ghostwriting and guest authorship.

We emphasize that the practices of ghostwriting and guest authorship are a manifestation of scientific dishonesty, and any detected cases will be unmasked, including notifying the appropriate entities (institutions employing authors, scientific societies, associations of scientific editors, etc.). Any manifestations of dishonesty, especially violations of scientific ethics, will be documented by the editors. In order to avoid similar cases, the editors of the journal kindly ask you to disclose your actual contribution to the creation of the publication (including affiliation and contribution, i.e. information about who is the author of the concepts, assumptions, methods, etc. used in preparing publication). At the same time, we would like to inform you that the main responsibility rests with the author submitting the manuscript. After registering in the OJS system, the authors submit an appropriate declaration on the author's preparation of the study.

In connection with the above, the obligations of the parties involved in the publication process are established.
