Authorship Criteria

The Jurnal Intervensi Sosial dan Pembangunan (JISP) recognizes authorship as an important academic responsibility that reflects an individual's substantial intellectual contribution to scholarly work. Authorship must be based on genuine contributions to the research and manuscript preparation, rather than solely on academic position, institutional affiliation, seniority, funding support, or administrative responsibilities.

JISP is committed to ensuring that authorship practices are fair, transparent, and consistent with established principles of research integrity and publication ethics.

1. Eligibility for Authorship

An individual may be listed as an author of a manuscript submitted to JISP if they have made substantial intellectual contributions to the research and manuscript. Such contributions may include:

  • Contributing to the conception or design of the research, or the acquisition, analysis, or interpretation of research data.

  • Participating in drafting the manuscript or critically revising it for important intellectual content.

  • Reviewing and approving the final version of the manuscript before submission or publication.

  • Agreeing to take responsibility for the integrity and accuracy of their contributions and to cooperate in addressing any questions concerning the accuracy or integrity of the work.

All individuals listed as authors are expected to fulfill these authorship requirements. Individuals who have contributed to the research but do not meet the authorship criteria should be appropriately acknowledged in the manuscript.

2. Responsibilities of Authors

All authors share responsibility for the scholarly quality, accuracy, and integrity of the published work. Each author is expected to:

  • Ensure that their contributions to the research and manuscript are accurately represented.

  • Verify the accuracy and reliability of the information, data, references, and findings within their respective areas of contribution.

  • Ensure that the manuscript is original and that all sources have been appropriately acknowledged and cited.

  • Disclose any relevant financial or non-financial conflicts of interest.

  • Cooperate with the editorial team in responding to questions, corrections, or concerns regarding the published work.

  • Approve the final manuscript and agree to its submission and publication in JISP.

3. Corresponding Author

The corresponding author serves as the primary contact between the authors and the JISP Editorial Office throughout the submission, peer-review, revision, and publication processes.

The corresponding author is responsible for:

  • Ensuring that all authors have met the authorship criteria and have agreed to be listed as authors.

  • Providing complete and accurate information regarding all authors, including their names, institutional affiliations, and contact details.

  • Confirming that all co-authors have reviewed and approved the final version of the manuscript.

  • Ensuring that all co-authors have agreed to the manuscript submission and publication.

  • Communicating editorial decisions, revision requests, and other relevant information to all co-authors.

  • Coordinating responses to editorial and reviewer comments on behalf of the authors.

The corresponding author must ensure that all authors are appropriately informed and involved in decisions concerning the manuscript.

4. Authorship Order

The order of authorship should reflect the relative contributions of each individual to the research and manuscript preparation, as mutually agreed upon by all authors.

JISP does not prescribe a fixed method for determining authorship order, as conventions may vary across academic disciplines and research collaborations. Authors are responsible for reaching a transparent and mutually agreed arrangement before manuscript submission.

The first author and corresponding author should be clearly identified during the submission process.

5. Contributors Who Do Not Qualify for Authorship

Individuals who provide technical assistance, administrative support, language editing, data collection assistance without substantial intellectual contribution, funding support, or general supervision do not automatically qualify for authorship.

Such contributions should be appropriately acknowledged in the Acknowledgements section, with the consent of the individuals concerned.

Academic titles, institutional positions, supervisory relationships, or financial contributions alone do not constitute sufficient grounds for authorship.

6. Changes in Authorship

Any request to add, remove, or rearrange authors after manuscript submission must be submitted in writing to the Editor-in-Chief, accompanied by a clear explanation and written agreement from all authors involved, including those being added or removed.

The editorial team reserves the right to assess such requests and may require additional documentation before approving any changes.

Changes to authorship after publication will only be considered in exceptional circumstances and must be supported by appropriate justification and agreement from the relevant parties.

7. Authorship Disputes

Any disputes concerning authorship, including author eligibility, contribution recognition, or authorship order, should initially be resolved among the authors through mutual discussion.

If the dispute cannot be resolved, the JISP Editorial Board may request clarification or supporting documentation from the parties involved. Where necessary, the matter may be referred to the relevant affiliated institution or other appropriate authorities for further investigation.

JISP will not independently determine the rightful ownership of authorship where the dispute requires institutional investigation. Editorial decisions will be made in accordance with established publication ethics principles.

8. Use of Artificial Intelligence in Authorship

Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, including Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI-based writing assistants, cannot be listed as authors or co-authors of manuscripts submitted to JISP.

AI tools cannot assume responsibility for the accuracy, integrity, and accountability of scholarly work. Any use of AI in manuscript preparation must be disclosed in accordance with the journal's Artificial Intelligence (AI) Usage and Ethics Policy.

Human authors remain fully responsible for all content submitted for publication, including any material generated or assisted by AI tools.

9. Commitment to Responsible Authorship

The Jurnal Intervensi Sosial dan Pembangunan (JISP) promotes responsible authorship practices to ensure fairness, transparency, academic accountability, and the integrity of scholarly publications.

By submitting a manuscript to JISP, all authors acknowledge their responsibility to comply with these authorship criteria and the journal's publication ethics policies.
