Artificial Intelligence Policy

The editorial board of the journal “Pedagogy and Psychology” strictly follows the recommendations of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) regarding the use of generative artificial intelligence in academic and scientific texts. The journal does not recognize artificial intelligence (AI) tools as authors. Authors are required to disclose the use of AI in the “Acknowledgements” section and to list the specific tasks for which it was used. Disclosure of AI is not required if it was used only for proofreading: to improve the readability and style of the text or to correct grammatical and spelling errors. AI may help improve the quality of a text, but it may not be used to generate content independently. The authors bear full responsibility for the originality of the final text.

In order to protect the intellectual property rights of authors, reviewers of the journal “Pedagogy and Psychology” are prohibited from using AI tools when reviewing manuscripts. The journal uses available tools to detect content generated by generative AI. If it is established that a manuscript has been prepared using generative AI in violation of this policy, the authors will be notified and the manuscript will be rejected. To ensure the transparency and integrity of scientific publications, researchers are obliged to comply with ethical standards. In the event of a violation of the policy, the manuscript may be retracted in accordance with the publisher’s rules and the COPE Code of Conduct.
