Before you start

Ethics in publication

Competing and Conflict of Interest

Declaration of Competing Interest

The corresponding author, on behalf of all authors, must disclose any financial and personal relationships with individuals or organizations that could inappropriately influence or bias their work. Potential conflicts of interest include, but are not limited to, employment, consultancies, stock ownership, honoraria, paid expert testimony, patent applications/registrations, and grants or other financial support. All authors, even those with no conflicts of interest to declare, should provide this information to the corresponding author, who will collect and submit it. If applicable, the corresponding author should use the designated tool to create a shared statement, which should be uploaded during the "Attach Files" link of the file step of the submission process. This statement should be placed in a separate section titled "Declaration of Competing Interest" at the end of the manuscript, just before the References section.

Manuscripts should also include the following declarations:

Funding: Provide details of any financial support received for the research, including grants, fellowships, or other funding sources.
Conflicts of Interest: Disclose any potential conflicts of interest, including the types mentioned above. If no conflicts exist, this should be stated clearly.
Data Availability: Explain the transparency and accessibility of the data used in the research. Include details on where the data can be accessed or any restrictions to access.
Code Availability: Indicate the availability of any software applications or custom code used in the study. Provide links or information on how the code can be accessed if applicable.
Ethics Approval: Ethical approval for research involving human or animal subjects is typically obtained from an Institutional Review Board (IRB) or an Ethics Committee affiliated with the author's institution or organization. This approval ensures that the study adheres to ethical standards and guidelines, such as the Declaration of Helsinki for human research. or the ARRIVE guidelines and relevant animal welfare regulations for animal studies. In the manuscript, authors should explicitly state where and from whom ethical approval was obtained. For example, they might include a statement such as: "Ethical approval for this study was granted by the [Name of Institution/Organization] Ethics Committee (approval number [XXX]) in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki." If the study was exempt from requiring ethical approval, this should also be clearly stated, along with the reason for the exemption. For example: "This study was reviewed by the [Name of Institution/Organization] Ethics Committee and granted an exemption from formal ethical approval because [reason for exemption]." Authors should include a statement in the manuscript that informed consent was obtained for experimentation with human subjects. The privacy rights of human subjects must always be observed. In all cases, authors must ensure transparency and compliance with ethical standards, providing readers with confidence in the integrity of the research process.
Use of Tools/Services: If specific tools or services were used during the preparation of the manuscript (such as statistical software or text editing services), include a statement like: "During the preparation of this work, the author(s) used [NAME TOOL/SERVICE] in order to [REASON]. After using this tool/service, the author(s) reviewed and edited the content as needed and take(s) full responsibility for the content of the publication."
Basic Tools: The declaration does not apply to the use of basic tools such as grammar checkers, spelling correctors, or reference management software.

Declaration and Verification for Submission

By submitting an article, you affirm that the work has not been previously published (except as an abstract, lecture, or thesis – refer to 'Multiple, redundant, or concurrent publication' for further details), is not currently being considered for publication elsewhere, has been approved by all authors, and has received either explicit or implicit approval from the relevant authorities where the research was conducted. If accepted, the article will not appear elsewhere in the same format, in English or any other language, including in electronic form, without the written permission of the copyright holder. To confirm compliance, your article undergoes checks using Crossref Similarity Check and other tools designed to detect originality or duplication.

Declaration of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in scientific writing

The guidance below only refers to the writing process and not to the use of AI tools to analyze and draw insights from data as part of the research process.

1- Where authors use generative AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process, authors should only use these technologies to improve readability and language. Applying the technology should be done with human oversight and control, and authors should carefully review and edit the result, as AI can generate authoritative-sounding output that can be incorrect, incomplete or biased. AI and AI-assisted technologies should not be listed as an author or co-author or be cited as an author. Authorship implies responsibilities and tasks that can only be attributed to and performed by humans.

2- Authors should disclose in their manuscript the use of AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process by following the instructions below. A statement will appear in the published work. Please note that authors are ultimately responsible and accountable for the contents of the work.

Disclosure instructions

Authors must disclose the use of generative AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process by adding a statement at the end of their manuscript in the core manuscript file before the References list. The statement should be placed in a new section entitled ‘Declaration of Generative AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process’.

Statement: During the preparation of this work, the author (s) used [NAME TOOL / SERVICE] in order to [REASON]. After using this tool/service, the author (s) reviewed and edited the content as needed and take(s) full responsibility for the content of the publication.

This declaration does not apply to the use of basic tools for checking grammar, spelling, references, etc. If there is nothing to disclose, there is no need to add a statement.

Reporting on Sex and Gender in Research

For research involving humans and animals, we recommend that authors consider sex and gender factors in their papers when applicable, ensuring they use the terms "sex" and "gender" clearly to avoid any confusion. "Sex" refers to the biological traits associated with physical and physiological characteristics in humans and animals, while "gender" pertains to the socially constructed roles, behaviours, and identities of women, men, and gender-diverse individuals, influenced by historical and cultural contexts that differ across societies and change over time. Gender shapes how people view themselves and others, how they act and interact, and how power is distributed in society. It is crucial to understand that gender is not limited to a binary (female/male) system; instead, there is a broad spectrum of gender identities and expressions. For additional guidance, authors may find the Sex and Gender Equity in Research (SAGER) guidelines useful.

Using Inclusive Language in Research

Inclusive language in scientific research ensures respect for diversity, sensitivity to differences, and equal opportunities for all. It is important to avoid assumptions about readers’ beliefs or values and to refrain from language that implies superiority based on factors such as age, gender, race, ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation, disability, or health status. Research writing should be free from bias, stereotypes, and cultural assumptions. Where possible, gender-neutral language should be used, for example, using plural nouns such as “clinicians” or “patients/clients” instead of gendered pronouns like “he” or “she.” References to personal attributes should only be included when relevant to the research. In technical terminology, it is recommended to replace terms such as “master” and “slave” with “primary” and “secondary,” and “blacklist” and “whitelist” with “blocklist” and “allowlist” to ensure neutral and inclusive language. While these guidelines provide general recommendations, they are not exhaustive or prescriptive but serve as a foundation for fostering inclusive and respectful scientific communication.

Preprints

Science Park Publisher accepts articles that have been previously published as preprints, provided they undergo significant revisions and improvements. These articles will be subject to a thorough peer review process to ensure they meet our publication standards before being officially published.

Authorship

Authorship Criteria

Authorship should be limited to individuals who have made substantial contributions to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the research. This includes those who have participated in drafting or critically revising the manuscript. It is important to establish clear authorship criteria early in the research process and ensure that all co-authors agree on their inclusion.

Acknowledging Contributions

Individuals who contributed to the research but do not meet the authorship criteria should be recognized in the acknowledgments section. For transparency, authors are encouraged to submit an author statement file detailing each contributor’s specific role using the relevant CRediT (Contributor Roles Taxonomy) classifications, which include Conceptualization, Data Curation, Formal Analysis, Funding Acquisition, Investigation, Methodology, Project Administration, Resources, Software, Supervision, Validation, Visualization, Writing Original Draft, and Writing, Review & Editing. Authorship statements should list each author’s name followed by their corresponding CRediT role(s). Additional details and examples are available.

Author contributions

For transparency, we require corresponding authors to provide co-author contributions to the manuscript using the relevant CRediT roles. The CRediT taxonomy includes 14 different roles describing each contributor’s specific contribution to the scholarly output.

The roles are Conceptualization, Data curation, Formal analysis, Funding acquisition, Investigation, Methodology, Project administration, Resources, Software, Supervision, Validation, Visualization, Roles/Writing - original draft; and Writing - review & editing. Note that not all roles may apply to every manuscript, and authors may have contributed through multiple roles.

Order of Authors

The order of authors should reflect the relative contributions of everyone to the research. This sequence should be agreed upon by all co-authors before submission. The corresponding author must be clearly designated.

Changes to Authorship

Authors should carefully review the authorship list and order before submitting their manuscript and provide the final approved list at the time of the original submission. Any changes to authorship—including additions, removals, or rearrangements must be formally requested before acceptance and must be approved by the journal editor.

Any such submission is subject to all the journal's usual procedures, with peer review handled independently of the relevant Editor and their research groups.

Use of word processing software

The file must be saved in the native format of the word processor used. The text should be in single-column format. Keep the layout of the text as simple as possible. Most formatting codes will be removed and replaced on processing the article. In particular, do not use the word processor's options to justify text or to hyphenate words. However, do use boldface, italics, subscripts, superscripts etc. When preparing tables, if you are using a table grid, use only one grid for each table and not a grid for each row. If no grid is used, use tabs, not spaces, to align columns. The electronic text should be prepared in a way very similar to that of conventional manuscripts. Note that source files of figures, tables and text graphics will be required whether you embed your figures in the text.

Offprints

Offprints can be ordered by the corresponding author. Once the article is published, the corresponding author will be notified and provided with a link to the open-access version of the article. This link, in the form of the article's DOI, can be shared via email.

Color illustrations

Publication of coloured figures is free of charge.

Online First

The manuscript will be published online after the corrected proof is finished.

Supporting Information

Supporting Information is not essential to the article but provides greater depth and background. The manuscript is hosted online in its unedited and typeset form. Succinct text and the necessary graphics for the Supporting Information must be submitted, where possible, as a separate document (i.e., Word, or PDF). The document should feature the title and the names of all authors, and a template for creating this page is included in the manuscript template. Graphics should be embedded within the Supporting Information file and not submitted as separate graphic files. The author must keep a copy of the Supporting Information and make this available to readers upon request. Other types of Supporting Information, e.g., multimedia files, raw data, code, etc., may be provided separately, with large files provided in a compressed file format, e.g., .zip or .rar.

For Review Article

Introduction

Discusses the text structure, defines the focus, identifies the context, and describes the rationale for the review with three paragraphs.

Subject background. Provide a general context or framework to outline the topic, issue or area of concern.

“Problem”. Trends, new perspectives, gaps, conflicts, or a single problem is indicated.

Motivation/justification. The author’s reason for reviewing the literature, the approach and the organization of the text are described in present tense.

Offer both theoretical and practical justifications for the necessity of conducting the review.

Material and Methods

The Materials and Methods section should encompass information on data sources (e.g., bibliographic databases), search terms, search strategies, selection criteria (inclusion/exclusion criteria for studies), the number of studies screened, the number of studies included, and the statistical methods employed for meta-analysis.

Body: Main Part of the Review Article

The topics of main part of review are:

Methodological approaches
Models or theories
Extent of support for a given thesis
Distinguish between studies that corroborate each other and those that hold conflicting views
Frequently link the discussed research findings to the research question stated in the introduction. Link the studies to one another. Compare and discuss these relationships.
Tenses: Present if reporting what another author thinks, believes, writes, reporting current knowledge or information of general validity, simple past for referring to what a specific researcher did or found, referring to a single study and Present perfect for referring to an area of research with a number of independent researchers involved.

Conclusions

Implications of the findings.
Summarizing and drawing conclusions in past tense.

Acknowledgments

Expresses gratitude to people who helped with the literature search, the structuring of the material or in the writing process and funding organization and specifies the funding.

References

Limit the number of references cited in the review to a maximum of 200.

For Letters and short communications

Letters or short reports are brief reports of data from original research.
Editors publish these letters or reports where they think the data are interesting and stimulate further research in this field. As they are relatively short the format is useful for scientists with results that are time sensitive. This format often has strict length limits, so some experimental details may not be published until the authors write a full Original Research manuscript.
A Brief letter or Report should contain approximately 3600 words, including figures. Each figure is considered equivalent to approximately 150 words.
Abstracts should be up to 150 words long. Although the abstract should explain why the article might be interesting, the importance of the work should not be over-emphasized. Citations should not be used in the abstract. Abbreviations, if needed, should be spelled out. Abstracts are structured into Methods, Results, and Conclusions.
Tables should NOT be submitted as figures but should be included in the main manuscript file.
Multi-panel figures (those with parts a, b, c, d etc.) should be submitted as a single composite file that contains all parts of the figure.
Figures should be numbered in the order they are first mentioned in the text and uploaded in this order.
Figures should be uploaded in the correct orientation.
Figure keys should be incorporated into the graphic, not into the legend of the figure.

Each figure should be closely cropped to minimize the amount of white space surrounding the illustration. Cropping figures improves accuracy when placing the figure in combination with other elements when the accepted manuscript is prepared for publication on our site.

Letters or short reports should include received/accepted dates.

Letters or short reports may be accompanied by supplementary information.

All published items will receive a DOI and be citable.

Supplementary Materials

Additional data, posters, videos, Sound clips, images or PPT presentations can be published as Supplementary Materials. These files will be published exactly as submitted, meaning Excel and PowerPoint files will appear in their original formats online. Please provide a clear, concise caption for each file.

If you need to make updates at any stage, submit a revised version instead of marking corrections on an older one. For Microsoft Office files, be sure to turn off the 'Track Changes' feature to prevent edits from appearing in the final published version. If you're submitting video clips, consider compressing them to ensure smooth uploading and submission.

After Acceptance

To ensure a fast publication process of the article, we kindly ask authors to provide us with their proof corrections within two days. Corresponding authors will receive an e-mail with a link to our proofing system, allowing annotation and correction of proofs. The environment is similar to MS Word: in addition to editing text, you can also comment on figures/tables and answer questions from the Copy Editor.

If preferred, you can still choose to annotate and upload your edits on the PDF version. All instructions for proofing will be given in the e-mail we send to authors

We will do everything possible to get your article published quickly and accurately. Please use this proof only for checking the typesetting, editing, completeness, and correctness of the text, tables, and figures. Significant changes to the article as accepted for publication will only be considered at this stage with permission from the Editor. It is important to ensure that all corrections are sent back to us in one communication. Please check carefully before replying, as the inclusion of any subsequent corrections cannot be guaranteed. Proofreading is solely your responsibility.
