Direct Marketing
JIPSF follows strict ethical standards in all direct communication, including calls for papers, manuscript invitations, and journal announcements. Key principles include:

• Targeted and Relevant: Outreach is directed only to researchers whose expertise aligns with JIPSF’s scope.
• Transparent and Accurate: Communications clearly state the journal’s editorial policies, open-access model, and institutional affiliation.
