Duties of Authors

False data: Information created or changed during an experiment or laboratory setting; while not strictly speaking plagiarism, this is unquestionably a type of academic fraud.
unacknowledged submission of a paper many times for different reasons without previous consent by relevant stakeholders.
Unacknowledged collaboration or numerous writers: It is important to acknowledge the work of all collaborators or authors.
The simultaneous submission of the same or a very similar work to two or more periodicals is known as self-plagiarism or double submission.

Peer Review Policy
An article is assigned to a panel of reviewers by the editor if it is determined that it fits the scope of the Journal of Trends in Management Research and complies with author requirements. Each paper that is submitted to the journal will go through a double-blind peer review process. The review's goals are to evaluate the degree of scientific rigor, provide a thorough analysis of the study proposal, and develop a scientific process for deriving conclusions.
The journal's peer reviewers are chosen based on both their availability and their field of expertise. Reviewers are asked to assess the following: the degree of originality in the research idea; the suitability of the methodology in relation to the identified research problem; adherence to ethical standards; the clarity and alignment of research results with the objectives; and the depth of the discussions and conclusions drawn from the study. It is expected of the reviewers to verify that the prior work that has been quoted or paraphrased is properly cited.
While it is not required of reviewers to fix the language, they are welcome to offer suggestions in order to improve the submission's quality.

It is imperative that authors comprehend that the purpose of the peer review process is to offer constructive yet critical feedback, enabling them to make necessary revisions to the article. The Journal of Trends in Management Research's peer review procedure is a time-bound undertaking. It is anticipated that the reviewers would finish the peer review within the recommended time range. The reviewers' advice and the reviews themselves will be forwarded to the authors. After reading the thorough evaluations, the Editor could request one more review in the extremely unusual instance if the recommendations are inconsistent.
The Editor alone has the final say in whether to accept or reject a manuscript.

Duties of the Publisher It is the publisher's responsibility to deal with unethical and illegal publishing practices. When there are allegations of dishonesty, misconduct, publishing malpractices, or misconstrued plagiarism, the publisher and editors will work together to take any necessary legal action to set the record straight and make the necessary changes to the offending article. This covers the timely release of an update, an explanation, or, in the worst situation, the withdrawal of the impacted work. When research misconduct occurs, the publisher and editors will take appropriate action to find the papers and stop them from being published. They will never, ever, condone or deliberately permit research misconduct to occur.

Archiving policy The Trends in Management Research strongly encourages its authors to self-archive. The acceptable versions of the papers can be self-archived by authors on their personal and professional webpages. After their manuscript is published, authors can deposit their published work in their institutional repository, provided they have provided a link to the final printed article and acknowledged the publication's source with a reference.
