Copyright and Publication Rights

The Creative Commons licence applied to the published article governs reuse by readers and other third parties. It does not restrict the authors’ exercise of the copyright they retain in their own original work.

Creative Commons Licence

Unless otherwise clearly indicated, articles published by IJNH are distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Licence (CC BY 4.0).

This licence permits readers and other third parties to copy, share, distribute, reproduce, adapt, translate, and reuse the published article in any medium or format, including for commercial purposes, provided that:

  • appropriate credit is given to the authors and the original publication;
  • the complete citation and DOI are provided where reasonably possible;
  • a link to the CC BY 4.0 licence is provided;
  • any modifications, adaptations, or translations are clearly indicated.

Reuse must not imply endorsement by the authors, editors, journal, or Publisher.

Self-Archiving

Authors may deposit the submitted manuscript, accepted manuscript, and published Version of Record in institutional or subject repositories, personal academic webpages, and other non-exclusive scholarly platforms without embargo.

Deposited versions should be clearly identified. When depositing or sharing the published Version of Record, authors should include the complete citation, DOI, link to the journal webpage, and applicable CC BY 4.0 licence statement.

Third-Party Material

The Creative Commons licence applies only to material for which the authors or Publisher are legally entitled to grant that licence.

Figures, tables, photographs, instruments, questionnaires, scales, datasets, and other third-party material may be subject to separate copyright, licensing, consent, privacy, or contractual restrictions.

Authors are responsible for obtaining any permission required to reproduce, distribute, or adapt third-party material before publication.

Preprints and Prior Dissemination

Previous deposit of a manuscript on a recognized preprint server, institutional repository, or personal academic webpage does not normally prevent submission to IJNH.

Authors must disclose relevant prior dissemination at the time of submission and provide the DOI, URL, citation, or other permanent identifier where available.

Following publication, authors are encouraged to update any preprint or repository record with the complete citation, DOI, and direct link to the Version of Record.
