Post-Publication Discussion

JCSR recognises that scholarly discussion may continue after an article has been published. Readers and researchers are welcome to raise substantive questions about published work, including its methodology, interpretation, evidence, conclusions, or contribution to the field.

Submitting a Comment or Concern

Comments or concerns should be sent to the editorial office at jcsr@unida.gontor.ac.id. The submission should identify the published article by title, author, and DOI or URL, explain the issue clearly, and provide supporting evidence or references where appropriate.

Editorial Assessment

The editor will assess whether the communication is relevant to the scholarly record, supported by adequate evidence, and suitable for further consideration. The journal may contact the original author for a response and may consult independent experts when necessary.

Any decision to publish a comment or response will be based on scholarly relevance, evidence, fairness, and editorial judgment. Personal attacks, defamatory content, unsupported allegations, and material unrelated to scholarly discussion will not be accepted.

Relationship to Corrections and Retractions

When a post-publication concern indicates a possible material error or research-integrity issue, the journal will consider whether further assessment is required under its Correction and Retraction Policy. A comment or response does not automatically lead to a correction or retraction.

The journal aims to handle post-publication communications fairly and transparently while protecting the integrity of the scholarly record.
