COPE Principles

  • Distinguish between genuine errors and intentional misconduct whenever possible.
  • Provide relevant parties with an opportunity to respond.
  • Maintain appropriate documentation of investigations and decisions.
  • Protect whistleblowers and other parties involved in ethical investigations where appropriate.
  • Communicate with relevant institutions when institutional investigation is necessary.
  • Issue corrections, expressions of concern, or retractions when justified.
  • Ensure that editorial actions are proportionate to the evidence and seriousness of the issue.
