The peer-review process is essential for the success of scientific publishing. As part of our commitment to the protection and enhancement of the peer-review process, the publisher has an obligation to assist the scientific community in all aspects of publishing ethics, especially in cases of (suspected) duplicate submission or plagiarism. 

All authors should be ensured that their manuscript(s) conforms to the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) recommendations for ethics, as well as to the general JRR article requirements. All submitted manuscripts will be checked by plagiarism detection software. All articles in the JRR journal are peer-reviewed, receive a DOI, are citable, published in PDF format, and submitted for indexing in relevant digital archives.
