3. Editorial Independence and Non-Interference Policy

In accordance with the Core Practices of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), JPPGuseda maintains strict editorial independence from its institutional owner:

  • The institutional leadership of Universitas Pakuan, FKIP, and administrative bodies do not participate in or exert influence over editorial evaluations, peer-review deliberations, or manuscript acceptance decisions.

  • Editorial decisions are made strictly on the basis of academic merit, scientific rigor, methodological soundness, and relevance to primary education, free from commercial, institutional, or personal bias.

4. Financial Governance

JPPGuseda operates under a non-profit scholarly publishing model supported by institutional funding from Universitas Pakuan and transparent Article Processing Charges (APCs). Financial administration is strictly segregated from editorial decision-making; editors and peer reviewers have no access to authors' payment information, ensuring that fee processing cannot influence acceptance outcomes.
