The Academic Integrity Officers of the Journal of NEAFCS are responsible for ensuring that our submissions are morally and ethically sound.  When immoral or unethical behavior is detected in a submitted manuscript, the officers recommend what authors should/need to do to prepare the article for resubmission.  In extreme cases, journal submissions may be rejected.

Authors should avoid the following:

  • Unauthorized use or attempted use of material from another author.
  • Fabricating data (in whole or in part).
  • Falsifying data (in whole or in part).
  • Submitting someone else’s work as your own.
  • Presenting another person’s ideas or theories in your own words without acknowledging the source.
  • Old and outdated data as a source.
  • Reference to immoral or unethical data.

If you are still interested in serving as an Academic Integrity Officer, please follow the following steps:

  1. Sign up for your Scholastica account at https://app.scholasticahq.com/users/sign_up.
  2. Email Rebecca at [email protected] with your decision.

A timeline and more details will be sent out after the Peer Reviewer training on April 3rd.

 


Archives

Please share the Journal with your administrators, local and state policymakers, advisory groups and peers. Since it is an online publication, you can easily forward them the link along with a personal note about it reflecting just a few examples of the valuable work done by extension family and consumer science educators all across the nation. We have learned that no one can tell the story of the impacts our work has on our clientele and communities better than we can.
