GenAI Policy: For Editors

  • Editors must not upload submitted manuscripts, or any part of them, to GenAI tools, because this breaches author confidentiality and may infringe intellectual property.
  • Editors must not use GenAI to make or draft editorial decisions. Evaluation and decisions remain the responsibility of the editors.
  • Editors may use GenAI only for tasks that involve no confidential content, such as drafting general correspondence templates.
  • When editors suspect undisclosed or inappropriate use of GenAI by authors or reviewers, they handle the case according to the Research Misconduct Policy.
