SEA - Practical Application of Science

Instrumentality.Inter-, Trans-, Multi- and Crossdisciplinary Approaches

During its years of active publication, SEA – Practical Application of Science promoted inter-, trans-, multi- and crossdisciplinary research approaches aimed at broadening the scope of scientific inquiry and addressing complex real-world problems. A central editorial orientation of the journal was the integration of theoretical frameworks with empirical investigation, with the objective of translating scientific knowledge into applied, practical insights relevant to organizations and the broader socio-economic environment.

Cross- and Interdisciplinary Perspectives

The journal consistently supported cross- and interdisciplinary research, understood as the purposeful integration of concepts, methods, and perspectives from multiple academic fields within a single research endeavor. Such approaches enabled the exploration of emerging phenomena that transcend traditional disciplinary boundaries and reflected the evolving nature of knowledge production in response to new societal needs, professional practices, and research challenges.

Publication Ethics.

It is therefore important to agree upon standards of expected ethical behavior for all parties involved in the act of publishing: the author, the journal editor, the peer reviewer and the publisher.

Data fabrication and falsification. Data fabrication means the researcher did not actually do the study, but made up data. Data falsification means the researcher did the experiment, but then changed some of the data. Both of these practices make people distrust scientists. If the public is mistrustful of science then it will be less willing to provide funding support.

Plagiarism. Taking the ideas and work of others without giving them credit is unfair and dishonest. Copying even one sentence from someone else’s manuscript, or even one of your own that has previously been published, without proper citation is considered plagiarism—use your own words instead.

Multiple submissions. It is unethical to submit the same manuscript to more than one journal at the same time. Doing this wastes the time of editors and peer reviewers, and can damage the reputation of journals if published in more than one.

Redundant publications. This means publishing many very similar manuscripts based on the same experiment. It can make readers less likely to pay attention to your manuscripts.

Improper author contribution or attribution. All listed authors must have made a significant scientific contribution to the research in the manuscript and approved all its claims. Don’t forget to list everyone who made a significant scientific contribution, including students and laboratory technicians.
