Advertising and Direct Marketing

Advertising
The Malaysian Journal of Sport Science and Recreation (MJSSR) currently does not accept or display any advertisements in its print or online formats.

Should advertising be considered in the future, MJSSR will ensure that:

• Advertisements will be clearly distinguished from editorial content and will have no influence on editorial decisions, peer review, or manuscript acceptance.

• Only relevant and ethical advertising related to academic, scientific, or professional activities will be considered.

• All advertising decisions will be made independently by the journal management team, with no involvement from authors, reviewers, or editorial board members.

• If implemented online, advertisements will not be targeted based on reader behaviour and will appear randomly or by manual placement.

MJSSR is committed to maintaining the integrity, independence, and transparency of its publishing process.

Direct marketing
Any direct marketing activities undertaken by the Malaysian Journal of Sport Science and Recreation (MJSSR), including the solicitation of manuscripts, are conducted in a manner that is appropriate, targeted, and professional.

All communications are designed to provide accurate and transparent information about the journal’s scope, submission process, and publication ethics. MJSSR ensures that no misleading claims are made regarding indexing status, impact, or acceptance guarantees.

Marketing efforts are aligned with the journal’s mission to promote high-quality research in sport science and recreation, and are carried out ethically and respectfully, without undue pressure on authors or institutions.
