Article Retraction & Withdrawal

Jurnal Abdimas Khatulistiwa is committed to maintaining scientific integrity and publication ethics. Therefore, the policy of article withdrawal and retraction is implemented as follows:

Article Retraction
Articles that have been published can be retracted if found:

Violation of publication ethics, such as plagiarism, data manipulation, or duplication of publication.

Significant errors that affect the validity of the findings.

Retractions will be officially announced in the next issue of the journal by including the reasons for withdrawal. Retracted articles will remain available with the "Retracted" watermark on each page.

Withdrawal of Manuscripts
Authors can withdraw submitted manuscripts before the review process is complete by submitting a written request to the editor. Withdrawal after the manuscript has been accepted for publication is not recommended and is only considered under certain conditions.
