The editorial board of the journal "Psychology and social work" recognizes the possibility of using artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in the process of preparing scientific materials, provided that the principles of academic integrity, transparency, and author responsibility are observed.

Authors must not list artificial intelligence (AI) as an author or co-author, nor cite AI as an author.

The use of generative AI tools (e.g., for data analysis, model development, statistical processing, literature review creation, data management planning, translations, etc.) must be disclosed in the "Research Methods" section, with a detailed description of the AI methods, algorithms, and datasets used. Example: In the preparation of this manuscript, the authors used Claude 3.5 Sonnet for translation and text editing. Following the use of this tool/service, the authors reviewed and edited the content as necessary and take full responsibility for the final version of the publication.

Results obtained through AI tools must be verified using scientifically sound methods.

Authors must ensure that AI tools do not replace critical analysis, human expertise, or ethical scientific practices.

Authors are fully responsible for the accuracy of the work, avoiding plagiarism, and protecting against bias introduced by AI.

The editorial board reserves the right to reject a manuscript if the use of AI tools or technologies during the research or manuscript preparation has not been disclosed.

Failure to declare the use of AI constitutes a violation of transparency and ethical standards.
