Advertising Policy

Section Menu

The AJMS Advertising Policy states that the Asian Journal of Managerial Science does not currently publish or display commercial advertisements. Editorial content, peer review, and publication decisions remain independent of advertising and promotional considerations.

1. Current Advertising Practice

AJMS does not currently accept commercial advertising on the journal website or within published scholarly articles. Accordingly, the Revenue Sources Statement identifies no current commercial advertising revenue.

2. Editorial Independence

If advertising is introduced in the future, it will not influence initial editorial assessment, reviewer selection, peer review, acceptance, rejection, correction, retraction, or any other editorial decision. Editors and reviewers will not make decisions on the basis of advertising relationships or advertising revenue.

3. Separation from Published Content

Any future advertising must be clearly distinguishable from editorial and scholarly content and must not be presented in a way that implies endorsement by AJMS or CRI of an advertised product, service, organisation, or claim.

4. Future Advertising Decisions

If AJMS introduces advertising, the policy will be updated before implementation to state which types of advertisements may be considered, who makes decisions about accepting advertisements, how advertisements are placed, and whether any contextual or behavioural targeting is used. This approach reflects the DOAJ Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing.

5. Conflicts of Interest

Actual or potential conflicts arising from advertising relationships will be managed so that editorial independence and integrity are protected. Relevant expectations concerning conflicts and editorial independence are also described in the Publication Ethics & Publication Malpractice Statement.

6. Current Online Advertising Status

Because AJMS does not currently accept commercial advertising, it does not currently use advertiser-directed behavioural targeting or link editorial decisions to advertising activity. If the practice changes, this policy will be updated before advertising is introduced.

Questions concerning advertising may be sent to the AJMS editorial office through the Contact page.
