Retraction and/or Corrections

Authors are discouraged from withdrawing submitted manuscripts once they are in the publication process (review, copyediting, layout, etc.). During this time, Mitra Pilar: Jurnal Pendidikan, Inovasi, dan Terapan Teknologi has invested valuable resources, including time spent on the process. If, under any circumstances, the authors still wish to withdraw their manuscript, they will be required to compensate for all the resources spent on the manuscript’s processing. The payment should be made upon official request from the author(s) via email to the editor, using the same email address used for correspondence.

Retraction of Publications

Editors will consider retracting a publication if:

• There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable, either as a result of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication) or honest error (e.g., miscalculation or experimental error).

• The findings have been published elsewhere without proper cross-referencing, permission, or justification (i.e., cases of redundant publication).

• The manuscript constitutes plagiarism.

• The manuscript reports unethical research.

The retraction process follows the guidelines from the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), which can be accessed at COPE Retraction Guidelines. For your convenience, the same document is also shown  as Retraction Guidelines.
