Example: The authors declare no conflict of interest in this article.

AI Tools Usage Policy
1. Purpose and Scope
Spirit Publik: Jurnal Administrasi Publik recognizes the growing use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools in academic writing and is committed to ensuring their use remains transparent, ethical, and consistent with the principles of research integrity.
2. Scope of Use
Generative AI tools may be used to assist with tasks such as improving language, grammar, and readability. Generative AI tools must not be used to generate the primary intellectual content of the manuscript, including the Introduction, Method, Results and Discussion, or Conclusion sections. Authors are expected to contribute original ideas, analysis, and intellectual input to the manuscript.
3. Authorship and Generative AI Contributions
Generative AI tools do not qualify for authorship. Authorship requires the capacity to take responsibility for the submitted work. Generative AI tools cannot fulfill this requirement. Generative AI tools must not be listed or cited as an author or co-author of any manuscript submitted to Spirit Publik: Jurnal Administrasi Publik. This applies regardless of the extent of their contribution to the manuscript.
4. Mandatory Disclosure
If any generative AI tool was used at any stage of preparing the manuscript, this use must be clearly declared in a separate section placed before the reference list, using a statement such as:
“During the preparation of this work, the author(s) used [NAME OF TOOL/SERVICE] in order to [STATE THE PURPOSE]. The author(s) subsequently reviewed and edited the content as necessary and remain fully responsible for the content of the published article.”
5. AI Use in Peer Review and Editorial Process
Reviewers must not use generative AI tools to evaluate a manuscript. Reviewers must not use generative AI tools to draft any part of a review report. The assessment of scientific merit, originality, and methodological soundness must remain the product of the reviewer's own expertise and judgment.
Editors must disclose any use of generative AI tools in the editorial handling of a manuscript. This includes tasks such as correspondence drafting and administrative summarization. The same disclosure principle applied to authors also applies to editors.
Reviewers and editors must not upload unpublished manuscripts into generative AI tools or platforms of any kind. This restriction also applies to any other confidential submission content.
6. Author Responsibility
Authors remain fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, and integrity of the entire manuscript, including any content assisted by generative AI tools. AI tools must not be used to fabricate, falsify, or manipulate data, results, or citations. Authors must verify that all AI-assisted content, including generated citations or references, is accurate and genuinely exists.
7. Editorial Review
Manuscripts submitted to Spirit Publik: Jurnal Administrasi Publik, whether AI-assisted or not, will undergo the same rigorous peer-review process to assess their scientific merit, originality, and adherence to ethical standards.
8. Confidentiality
Manuscripts under review, reviewer reports, and related editorial communications are confidential. This confidentiality extends to the use of generative AI tools. No party involved in the editorial or review process may input confidential manuscript content into any generative AI tool. This restriction also applies to author information and reviewer comments. The journal's general confidentiality obligations during the review process are set out separately in the Peer Review Process policy.
9. Suspected Misuse of Generative AI
Any suspected undisclosed or improper use of generative AI will be handled in accordance with the journal's policy on Allegations of Misconduct. This includes fabricated content, misrepresented authorship, and breaches of the confidentiality provisions above. Depending on the outcome of the review, this may result in manuscript rejection, correction, retraction, or notification to the relevant institution.
10. Policy Review
This policy on the use of generative AI in manuscript preparation may be periodically reviewed and updated to reflect the evolving landscape of AI technology and to align with best practices in scholarly publishing.
11. Contact
Questions regarding this policy may be directed to the editorial team through the journal's Contact page under About the Journal.
