Third-Party Material
Unless otherwise indicated, the open-access licence applies to the scholarly article and the material for which the authors hold the necessary rights.
Photographs, figures, illustrations, datasets, assessment instruments, maps, software, or other material reproduced from third-party sources may be subject to separate copyright or licensing conditions.

Open Access and Editorial Independence
Open-access publishing does not influence editorial assessment, peer review, or publication decisions.
Where an Article Processing Charge (APC) applies, financial and administrative matters are handled separately from editorial decision-making.
An author's ability or inability to pay an APC, eligibility for a waiver or discount, or any other financial consideration does not determine whether a manuscript is accepted or rejected.
Editorial decisions are based on scholarly merit, relevance to the journal's scope, methodological quality, research integrity, ethical compliance, peer-review outcomes, and the journal's editorial policies.
