Correction and Retraction Policy

Correction and Retraction Policy

The Indonesian Journal of Aquaculture Medium recognizes its responsibility to maintain the accuracy, reliability, and integrity of the scholarly record.

Corrections may be issued when errors are identified in a published article but the overall findings and conclusions remain valid.

Such errors may include inaccuracies in tables, figures, data presentation, author information, affiliations, or other aspects requiring clarification.

Retractions may be considered when published findings are substantially unreliable due to serious methodological errors, fabrication or falsification, plagiarism, duplicate publication, unethical research practices, or other significant violations of publication integrity.

Before making a decision, the Editorial Board will assess the available evidence and provide the authors with an opportunity to respond.

Decisions will consider the nature and severity of the concern and its implications for the validity of the published work.

A retracted article will remain identifiable in the journal's publication record and will be accompanied by a clearly labelled retraction notice explaining the reasons for the decision.

Where appropriate, the journal may also issue an expression of concern while an unresolved investigation is ongoing.

These procedures aim to maintain transparency and ensure that readers have access to accurate information about the status of published articles.
