AI-use policy
Tools may assist. Accountability does not move.
AI may support bounded editorial work, but a human publisher remains responsible for every public claim, source, judgment, and correction.
Permitted assistance
Use the system without hiding it.
What AI may help with
Topic mapping, question generation, comparison, structural editing, controlled transformation, example generation, and pre-publication checks. Suggested sources are treated as leads until opened and verified.
What remains human-led
Editorial purpose, inclusion decisions, evidence interpretation, consequential recommendations, final language, publication, corrections, and responsibility for harm.
Prohibited practice
We do not publish unreviewed model output, fabricated experience, invented quotations, fake authorship, or mass-generated keyword variants. Private information is not added merely to personalize a prompt.
Disclosure
Material AI involvement in a field experiment or a claim’s production is described where it helps a reader assess the work. Disclosure never substitutes for verification.
