Conflict of Interest
Almana : Jurnal Manajemen dan Bisnis requires authors, editors, and reviewers to disclose any circumstances that could influence, or reasonably appear to influence, their scholarly judgment.
Conflicts of interest may arise from:
- Financial relationships.
- Employment or institutional affiliations.
- Research sponsorship.
- Consulting arrangements.
- Personal relationships.
- Academic collaborations.
- Professional competition.
- Other competing interests.
Authors
Authors must disclose relevant competing interests and funding sources when submitting manuscripts.
Editors
Editors must recuse themselves from handling manuscripts when they have a conflict of interest involving the authors, research institutions, or subject matter.
Reviewers
Reviewers must identify potential conflicts before accepting review assignments and should decline invitations where impartial evaluation cannot be assured.
The existence of a conflict of interest does not automatically disqualify a manuscript from publication. However, relevant relationships must be transparently disclosed and appropriately managed.
Where no competing interests exist, authors should include the following statement:
"The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have influenced the work reported in this article."
