All submitted manuscripts must be original and properly cited. MJEMP uses plagiarism detection tools to verify content authenticity. Plagiarism or duplicate submissions are not tolerated.

Managing Conflicts

Editors must recuse themselves from handling manuscripts where a conflict of interest exists and assign the paper to an impartial colleague.
