Ethical Issues

The Journal Olhar de Professor is committed to addressing ethical issues related to articles published and the evaluation and publication processes. Our ethical decisions and procedures are based on the following documents:

• CNS Resolution No. 466/2012 (Ethics in Research with human beings);
• CNS Resolution No. 510/2016 (Ethics in Research in Human and Social Sciences);
• APA Manual (Penso Publisher, 2012);
• CNPq Document: Ethics and integrity in scientific practice (link);
• Document Ethics and Research in Education - v. 1 (Anped) (link).

Regarding Articles

a) If the article has been submitted to an Ethics Committee (CEP/CONEP system or another system), authors are requested to mention this in the body of the article (e.g., in a footnote).

b) In the preliminary analysis, identify the ethical considerations used in the research and request that reviewers perform the same.

c) If the research project that originated the article has not been submitted to an ethics committee, authors should include a section on research ethics in the article (self-declaration of ethical principles and procedures, according to Mainardes and Carvalho, 2019, available at: link).

d) Research conducted with vulnerable groups requires special attention to ethical considerations in data production, participant interaction, analysis, and dissemination. Vulnerable groups include children, people with disabilities/special needs, the elderly, families with social vulnerability or psychosocial risk, and individuals in long-term institutions.

e) At the end of the evaluation process, with the final version of the text, authors must submit their Declaration of Ethical Commitment to the system.

Regarding Authorship

The journal recommends that authors and co-authors discuss the order in which they are to be included in the article. Authors should be mindful of items 17 and 20 of the CNPq document (Ethics and integrity in scientific practice):

17—Only17—Only individuals who have made a significant contribution to the work deserve authorship in a manuscript; 20-Authors must be able to describe, when requested, their personal contribution to the work.

Plagiarism and Self-Plagiarism

a) The journal’s editorial team will use a plagiarism control program during the text editing process.

b) Before submitting the article, authors should ensure that all ideas from other authors are properly cited and included in the reference list.

c) Regarding self-plagiarism, the article must be an original contribution, and citations of the author’s previous works should be included only when necessary for understanding the new article in terms of theory or methodology (according to the APA Manual).

d) In cases of self-plagiarism, the maximum allowed amount of text is 10% or 50% when it results from a master’s thesis or doctoral dissertation (the final version of the text, once approved, must mention the research in a footnote). In addition, the article will be returned with an indication of the problem. At this stage, authors have the opportunity to make the necessary changes and resubmit the article for review.

e) Cases of plagiarism reported to the journal after publication will be reviewed by the Editorial Committee. If the report is confirmed, the article will be immediately withdrawn from the journal.

We suggest that authors familiarize themselves with the COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) guidelines on ethical principles in scientific publishing (link).
