AI-Assisted Content Policy

The Holistic Nursing Journal (HNJ)recognizes the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in academic writing and research preparation. The journal is committed to maintaining transparency, academic integrity, originality, and ethical publishing standards regarding the use of AI-assisted tools.

Use of AI Tools

Authors may use artificial intelligence tools for limited purposes such as:

  • Language editing
  • Grammar correction
  • Formatting assistance
  • Reference organization

However, authors remain fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, integrity, and scientific validity of all submitted content.

Disclosure Requirement

Authors must clearly disclose any use of AI-assisted technologies in the preparation of the manuscript, including the name of the tool and its purpose of use.

A disclosure statement may be included in the manuscript when applicable.

Example:

“The authors used AI-assisted tools for language editing and formatting purposes only.”

 Authorship Responsibility

  • Cannot take responsibility for the content

  • Generating false information or references
  • Producing misleading scientific content
  • Manipulating images or results unethically  
  • Replacing critical scientific interpretation or author responsibility
