Guidelines for the Use of Artificial Intelligence

JAFF expects submissions to report the results and ideas of the listed authors themselves. Therefore, any contributions from other sources must be clearly and accurately described.

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the execution of a work or the writing of an article must be clearly reported in the Methods section of the manuscript or in the Acknowledgments section (for manuscripts that do not have a Methods section). The report must include the name(s) of all tools used, as well as a description of how these tools were used and in which aspects of the study or article content they were employed.

The use of AI to fabricate or misrepresent primary research data is unacceptable.

Failure to comply with any aspect of these guidelines will be considered a misrepresentation of methods, contributions, and/or results. If there are concerns about non-compliance with these guidelines, JAFF may notify the author(s)' institution(s) and the journal may reject (pre-publication), retract (post-publication), or publish an editorial notice about the article.
