Conflict of Interest Policy

The Nigeria Journal of Education, Health and Technology Research (NJEHETR) requires transparency concerning financial, professional, personal and institutional relationships that may influence or appear to influence scholarly research and publication decisions.

1. Author Disclosure

All authors are required to disclose relevant conflicts of interest when submitting manuscripts.

Conflicts may include:

Financial interests or funding relationships.
Employment or consultancy arrangements.
Personal or professional relationships.
Institutional affiliations that may influence research outcomes.
Ownership of patents or commercial interests.
Other relationships that could reasonably be perceived as influencing the research.

2. Funding Disclosure

Authors should identify organisations, institutions or individuals that provided financial or material support for the research.

The role of the funding organisation in the research design, data collection, analysis, interpretation and manuscript preparation should be disclosed where applicable.

3. Editorial Conflicts of Interest

Editors handling manuscripts must disclose relationships that could compromise their impartiality.

An editor with a relevant conflict should withdraw from handling the affected manuscript, and another qualified editor should be assigned where possible.

4. Reviewer Conflicts of Interest

Reviewers should disclose any personal, professional, financial or institutional relationship that may affect their ability to provide an objective assessment.

Reviewers should decline assignments where such conflicts cannot be appropriately managed.

5. Declaration Statement

Authors should include one of the following statements in their manuscripts:

Where a conflict exists:

"The authors declare the following competing interests: [provide details]."

Where no conflict exists:

"The authors declare that there are no conflicts of interest associated with this study."

6. Editorial Action

Failure to disclose a material conflict of interest may result in additional editorial assessment, manuscript rejection or other appropriate publication action.
