Guía de Buenas Prácticas Editoriales Revista Obies • Bogotá-Colombia • Vol. 2 de 2018 • pp.  [ 7 ]Puede ocurrir en cualquier etapa de la planificación, la investigación, la escritura o de la publicación: se aplica a las versiones impresas y electrónicas.Acción• Todas las fuentes deben darse a conocer, y si gran cantidad de material escrito o ilustrativo de otras per-sonas se planea utilizar, hay que buscar el permiso.Deberes del editorLos editores son los administradores de revistas. Por lo general, se apoderan de su diario desde el editor (s) anterior, y siempre quieren entregar a la revista en buena forma. La mayoría de los editores proporcionan la dirección de la revista y construir un sólido equipo de gestión. Se deben considerar y equilibrar los intereses de muchos constituyentes, incluyendo lectores, autores, el personal, los pro-pietarios, miembros del comité editorial, los anun-ciantes y los medios de comunicación.Acción• Las decisiones de los editores para aceptar o recha-zar un documento para su publicación debe basarse únicamente en la importancia, originalidad y clari-dad, y la relevancia del estudio de las competencias de la revista.• Los estudios que cuestionan el trabajo previo publi-cado en la revista deben ser oída en forma especial-mente simpático.• Los estudios que informan resultados negativos no deben ser excluidos.• Todos los estudios originales deben ser revisados antes de su publicación, teniendo plenamente en cuenta el posible sesgo debido a los intereses afines.• Los editores deben tratar a todos los documentos presentados como confidencial.• Cuando un documento publicado posteriormen-te se comprueba para contener defectos importan-tes, los editores deben aceptar la responsabilidad de corregir el registro del artículo de forma visible e inmediata.Equipo editorial Revista ObIESRevista Obies • Bogotá-Colombia • Vol. 2 de 2018 • pp.  [ 8 ]This document has been adapted from  the COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) Report 1999. The Editorial Team  hope that they will be dissemi-nated widely, endorsed by the editor, and refined by those who use them.Study design and ethical approvalGood research should be well justified, well plan-ned, appropriately designed, and ethically appro-ved. To conduct research to a lower standard may constitute misconductAction• The research should be driven by protocol; pilot stu-dies should have a written rationale.• Research protocols should seek to answer specific questions, rather than just collect data.• Protocols must be carefully agreed by all contribu-tors and collaborators, including, if appropriate, the participants.• The final protocol should form part of the research record.• Early agreement on the precise roles of the contribu-tors and collaborators, and on matters of authorship and publication, is advised.• Statistical issues should be considered early in study design, including calculations, to ensure there are neither too few nor too many participants.• Formal and documented ethical approval from an appropriately constituted research ethics committee is required for all studies involving people.Data AnalysisData should be appropriately analysed, but ina-ppropriate analysis does not necessarily amount to misconduct. Fabrication and falsification of data do constitute misconduct.Actions• All sources and methods used to obtain and analyse data, including any  pre-processing, should be fully disclosed; detailed explanations should be provided for any exclusions.• Methods of analysis must be explained in detail, and referenced.• The discussion section of a paper should mention any issues of bias which have been considered, and explain how they have been dealt with in the design and interpretation of the study.AuthorshipThere is no universally agreed definition of author-ship, although attempts have been made. As a mi-nimum, authors should take responsibility for a particular section of the study.Actions• The award of authorship should balance intelec-tual contributions to the conception, design, analy-sis and writing of the study against the collection of data and other routine work. If there is no task that can reasonably be attributed to a particular indivi-dual, then that individual should not be credited with authorship.• To avoid disputes over attribution of academic cre-dit, it is helpful to decide early on in the planning of a research project who will be credited as authors, as contributors, and who will be acknowledged.• All authors must take public responsibility for the content of their paper. The multidisciplinary na-ture of much research can make this difficult, but this can be resolved by the disclosure of individual contributions.Guidelines On Good Publication PracticesGuidelines On Good Publication Practices Revista Obies • Bogotá-Colombia • Vol. 2 de 2018 • pp.  [ 9 ]Conflicts of InterestConflicts of interest comprise those which may not be fully apparent and which may influence the ju-dgment of author, reviewers, and editors. They have been described as those which, when revealed la-ter, would make a reasonable reader feel misled or deceived. They may be personal, commercial, po-litical, academic or financial. “Financial” interests may include employment, research funding, stock or share ownership, payment for lectures or travel, consultancies and company support for staff.Action• Such interests, where relevant, must be declared to editors by researchers, authors, and reviewers.• Editors should also disclose relevant conflicts of inte-rest to their readers. If in doubt, disclose. Sometimes editors may need to withdraw from the review and selection process for the relevant submission.Peer ReviewPeer reviewers are external experts chosen by edi-tors to provide written opinions, with the aim of improving the study. Working methods vary from journal to journal, but some use open procedures in which the name of the reviewer is disclosed, to-gether with the full or “edited” report.Actions• Suggestions from authors as to who might act as re-viewers are often useful, but there should be no obli-gation on editors to use those suggested.• The duty of confidentiality in the assessment of a manuscript must be maintained by expert reviewers, and this extends to reviewers’ colleagues who may be asked (with the editor’s permission) to give opi-nions on specific sections.• The submitted manuscript should not be retained or copied.• Reviewers and editors should not make any use of the data, arguments, or interpretations, unless they have the authors’ permission.• Reviewers should provide speedy, accurate, cour-teous, unbiased and justifiable reports.• If reviewers suspect misconduct, they should write in confidence to the editor.• Journals should publish accurate descriptions of their peer review, selection.• Journals should also provide regular audits of their acceptance rates and publication times.Redundant PublicationRedundant publication occurs when two or more papers, without full cross reference, share the same hypothesis, data, discussion points, or conclusions.Actions• Published studies do not need to be repeated unless further confirmation is required.• Previous publication of an abstract during the pro-ceedings of meetings does not preclude subse-quent submission for publication, but full disclosure should be made at the time of submission.• Re-publication of a paper in another language is acceptable, provided that there is full and promi-nent disclosure of its original source at the time of submission.• At the time of submission, authors should disclose details of related papers, even if in a different lan-guage, and similar papers in press.PlagiarismPlagiarism ranges from the unreferenced use of others’ published and unpublished ideas, inclu-ding research grant applications to submission under “new” authorship of a complete paper, so-metimes in a different language. It may occur at Guidelines On Good Publication Practices Revista Obies • Bogotá-Colombia • Vol. 2 de 2018 • pp.  [ 10 ]any stage of planning, research, writing, or publi-cation: it applies to print and electronic versions.Actions• All sources should be disclosed, and if large amounts of other people’s written or illustrative material is to be used, permission must be sought.Duties of EditorEditors are the stewards of journals. They usually take over their journal from the previous editor(s) and always want to hand over the journal in good shape. Most editors provide direction for the journal and build a strong management team. They must consider and balance the interests of many cons-tituents, including readers, authors, staff, owners, editorial board members, advertisers and the media.Actions• Editors’ decisions to accept or reject a paper for pu-blication should be based only on the paper’s im-portance, originality, and clarity, and the study’s relevance to the remit of the journal. • Studies that challenge previous work published in the journal should be given an especially sympathe-tic hearing.• Studies reporting negative results should not be excluded.• All original studies should be peer reviewed befo-re publication, taking into full account possible bias due to related or conflicting interests.• Editors must treat all submitted papers as confidential.• When a published paper is subsequently found to contain major flaws, editors must accept respon-sibility for correcting the record prominently and promptly.Editorial Team ObIES Journal
