Creative AI Usage Policy for Authors

The Journal of Social Studies Perspectives (JSSP) recognizes the rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies that can support academic writing and scholarly creativity. To ensure the transparent, ethical, and academically sound use of AI tools, the journal establishes the following policy for authors:

1. Disclosure of AI Usage

Authors must clearly inform the editorial board if any AI tools were used in the creation or preparation of their manuscripts—whether for text drafting, language translation, or academic illustrations. The nature and role of AI assistance must be explicitly stated.

2. Academic Quality Control

Any content generated or supported by AI must be reviewed, verified, and revised by the author(s) to ensure factual accuracy, academic validity, and alignment with the journal’s quality standards.

3. Prevention of Copyright Infringement

Authors are fully responsible for the use of any AI-generated materials. It is strictly prohibited to use AI-generated content or media that infringes upon copyright or the rights of third parties. When using AI-generated images or data, authors must ensure that such materials are legally permissible for public or academic use.

4. Attribution and Citation

When AI tools are used to generate or assist with textual content, data, or visual materials, proper acknowledgment should be provided. This includes specifying the AI tool’s name, version, and purpose of use, to maintain transparency and fairness for readers.

5. Encouraging Human Creativity

AI may be used as a supportive tool for analysis, structure development, or idea generation. However, AI must not replace the intellectual or creative contribution of the author. Authors remain primarily responsible for synthesizing, analyzing, and presenting the scholarly content in their own words and reasoning.
