Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) Usage Policy

Mudarrisa: Jurnal Kajian Pendidikan Islam upholds transparency, accountability, confidentiality, and integrity in the use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in scholarly publishing. GenAI tools may be used only to support limited technical aspects of manuscript preparation, such as language editing, grammar correction, translation assistance, formatting assistance, and readability improvement.

Authors are not permitted to use GenAI tools to fabricate data, create false references, manipulate research findings, generate unsupported academic claims, replace scholarly analysis, or produce misleading academic content. Authors remain fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, validity, and integrity of all content submitted to the journal.

GenAI tools cannot be listed as authors or co-authors because they cannot take responsibility for the submitted work, approve the final version, or be accountable for research integrity. Authorship is limited to human contributors who make substantial scholarly contributions and accept responsibility for the manuscript.

Editors and reviewers must not upload unpublished manuscripts, review reports, confidential editorial correspondence, author data, or any privileged information into GenAI tools or external AI platforms. This restriction is intended to protect confidentiality, intellectual property, author privacy, and the integrity of the peer-review process.

If the editorial team identifies suspected misuse of GenAI, including fabricated references, unverifiable content, undisclosed AI-generated material, manipulated analysis, or breach of confidentiality, the manuscript may be rejected, returned for correction, retracted, or subjected to further editorial investigation in accordance with the journal’s publication ethics policy.
