Code of Ethics

Committed to the principles of ethics, REUFPI follows the Code of Conduct and Best Practice Guidelines for Journal Editors, the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) (http://publicationethics.org/) and the recommendations of the National Commission on Ethics in Research (CONEP). Thus, original research carried out in Brazil must respect the guidelines of Resolution no. 466, of December 12, 2012 and no. 510 of April 07, 2016.

REUFPI is also committed to the principles of ethics and scientific integrity, therefore, it condemns plagiarism. In our editorial flow, we use anti-plagiarism software (such as Plagius) in two stages: at the time of checking the files sent upon submission and at the text editing stage before publication, checking the text in Portuguese and its English version.
