Policy on the Use of AI and AI-Assisted Technologies

The editorial board permits the use of artificial intelligence technologies solely as a supplementary tool for linguistic, stylistic, technical, or structural support of the text. The use of AI must not replace the author's scientific contribution, research analysis, interpretation of results, or responsibility for the manuscript's content.

The use of AI is strictly prohibited for fabricating data, sources, citations, or research results, covertly generating substantial portions of the manuscript, concealing plagiarism, or circumventing academic integrity requirements. AI cannot be listed as an author or co-author of a scientific publication.

If AI is used, the author must disclose this to the editorial board, specifying which tool was used, for what purpose, and to what extent. All facts, data, conclusions, references, and wording must be verified by the author, who bears full responsibility for the submitted material.

Reviewers and editors are required to use AI responsibly, without compromising the confidentiality of manuscripts. Final editorial and peer-review decisions are made exclusively by humans.
