Author Guidelines

1. Reporting Standards

Authors must provide an accurate account of the work performed and an objective discussion of its significance. Papers should present sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Professional articles should be accurate and objective, while editorial works expressing opinions must be clearly identified as such.

2. Originality and Exclusivity of Work

Authors must ensure that their submitted work is entirely original. If authors have used the work or words of others, this must be properly cited or acknowledged. Various forms of plagiarism exist, ranging from copying another author’s paper in its entirety and claiming it as one’s own, to paraphrasing substantial parts of another’s work without attribution. Any form of plagiarism is considered unethical and unacceptable. Furthermore, an author should not publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to multiple journals simultaneously is unethical. In general, previously published papers should not be submitted for consideration in another journal. However, extended versions of conference papers may be considered if they contain at least 30% new material.

3. Hazards and Use of Human or Animal Subjects

If the work involves the use of chemicals, procedures, or equipment that present any unusual hazards, the author must clearly identify these in the manuscript. When the research involves the use of animals or human subjects, authors must ensure that the manuscript includes a statement confirming that all procedures complied with relevant institutional laws and guidelines, and that the appropriate institutional committee(s) approved them. Authors must also include a statement confirming that experiments involving human subjects were conducted with informed consent. The privacy rights of human subjects must always be respected.

4. Authorship and Copyright

Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. All individuals who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors, while those who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project should be acknowledged as contributors. Authors must ensure that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication. Each manuscript submitted for publication must be accompanied by a signed publication agreement, which serves as a copyright transfer from the author(s) to the publisher. A copy of this agreement must be provided once the paper is accepted.

5. Acknowledgement of Sources

Proper acknowledgement of the work of others must always be given. Authors should cite publications that have influenced the nature of the reported work. Information obtained privately, such as in conversations, correspondence, or discussions with third parties, should not be used or reported without explicit written permission from the source. Similarly, information obtained during confidential services, such as reviewing manuscripts or grant applications, must not be used without written permission from the author(s) involved.

6. Disclosure Requirements

At the time of submission, authors must disclose any significant affiliations or financial involvement—either direct or indirect—with any organization or entity that has a financial interest in the subject matter discussed in the manuscript. This includes employment, consultancies, stock ownership, grants, patents, royalties, honoraria, or expert testimony received or pending. Such financial involvement is not uncommon and does not necessarily preclude publication; however, full disclosure must be made confidentially. Upon approval by the Editor, a general disclosure statement may be included in the acknowledgment section of the paper.

7. Errors in Published Works

When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in their published work, it is their obligation to promptly notify the journal editor or publisher and cooperate with them to retract or correct the paper. If the editor or publisher learns from a third party that a published work contains a significant error, the author is obliged to promptly retract or correct the paper or provide evidence of its accuracy. This is the author’s ethical responsibility.

8. Disclaimer

9. Manuscript Preparation

Authors may submit manuscripts in MS Word format online via https://jriem.ti.fti.itb.ac.id/index.php/jriem/about/submissions. The manuscript should not exceed 12 pages, formatted on A4-sized single-sided paper. Page numbers are not required. Manuscripts may be written in English or Indonesian.
