Post-Publication Discussions

Post-Publication Discussions

TEKNIKA encourages vibrant and constructive post-publication scientific debate. Readers and scholars may submit comments, critiques, or mathematical/methodological challenges regarding published articles via the following process:

1
Letters to the Editor

Substantive scientific inquiries regarding published papers should be formally submitted to the Editors.

2
Process

The Editorial Board evaluates the technical merit of the inquiry. If deemed valid, the original authors will be invited to submit an Author Response.

3
Publication

Both the Letter and the Response will be peer-reviewed and published concurrently in an upcoming issue, cross-linked directly to the original article.

Commitment:

TEKNIKA is committed to promoting open, constructive and responsible scientific communication as part of its efforts to uphold the integrity and advancement of science. Post-publication discussions provide a forum for the academic community to offer feedback, scientific criticism or clarification regarding published articles. This policy has been drawn up to ensure that all discussions are conducted in a professional, ethical and transparent manner, and are in line with the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and the principles of publication ethics.
