CONFLICT OF INTERESTS
Authors should avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of conflicts of interest throughout the research process. A conflict of interest is any event known to a participant in the publication process such that, if it is revealed later, it would make a reader feel reasonably deceived, (or an author, reviewer or editor feels defensive). If there are doubts about whether a circumstance represents a conflict, the authors should contact the Scientific Committee, so that it can assess its importance.
DOUBLE-BLIND REVIEWING
ICABEE 2025 follows a double-blind review process, by which the authors do not know the reviewers and vice versa. Authors should respect the confidentiality of the review process and should not be disclosed to reviewers, and vice versa. For example, the manuscript should not include any information through which any author’s identity can be inferred to a reviewer. Authors should not publish the work they have submitted to websites where they can be easily discovered by potential reviewers, including working documents, or previous drafts.
