Conflict of Interest Statement

Jurnal Plastik Rekonstruksi is committed to ensuring transparency, objectivity, and integrity throughout the publication process. All authors, reviewers, and editors are required to disclose any financial or non-financial relationships that could influence, or be perceived to influence, their professional judgment or the integrity of the research and publication process.

Conflicts of interest may include financial relationships, employment, consultancies, honoraria, research funding, personal relationships, academic competition, or other affiliations that could affect the impartial evaluation or reporting of scholarly work.

Authors must disclose all relevant conflicts of interest when submitting their manuscripts. If no conflicts exist, authors must explicitly state that they have no conflicts of interest. These disclosures should be included in the published article.

Reviewers must declare any potential conflicts of interest before accepting a review assignment. Reviewers who identify circumstances that could compromise their impartiality should decline the assignment or notify the editorial team.

Editors must disclose relevant conflicts of interest and refrain from handling manuscripts when personal, professional, or financial relationships could compromise their editorial independence. Such manuscripts will be assigned to an independent editor.

The editorial team evaluates disclosed conflicts of interest and determines appropriate measures to maintain fairness and transparency. Disclosure does not automatically constitute misconduct; rather, it enables informed assessment and appropriate management of potential bias.

Jurnal Plastik Rekonstruksi expects all participants in the publication process to uphold these principles to protect the credibility, independence, and integrity of scholarly publishing.
