All studies submitted to TRK Journal must be conducted in accordance with relevant institutional, national, and international ethical principles. Our journal considers ethical compliance a fundamental publication requirement, in line with the TR Index Ethical Principles and academic ethical standards.

For research involving human participants (including surveys, interviews, focus group studies, observation, experimental studies, and training applications), approval from an authorized Ethics Committee is mandatory.

Information regarding ethical committee approval (committee name, approval date, and decision number) must be clearly, verifiably, and completely stated in the article text, particularly in the Methods section.

For studies that do not require ethical committee approval, the reason for this must be clearly stated in the article and supported by relevant legislation.

The authors are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with ethical principles and the accuracy of all information presented in the article. TRK Journal reserves the right to request ethical committee approval documents for editorial review if deemed necessary.
