ethical requirements for the submitted paper
All research or methodologies identified as being conducted or developed by the authors or institutions have in fact been so conducted or developed.
Relevant prior and existing research and methodologies will be properly identified and referenced using the standard bibliographic and scientific conventions.
All the content of the submitted paper shall be the original work of the authors and shall not plagiarize the work of others. Short quotes from the work of others should be properly referenced with full bibliographic details of the quoted work. To quote or copy text or illustrations beyond a ‘short quote‘ will require the author to obtain permission from the rights holder.
Duplicate submission of the same paper to more than one scholarly journal while the decision from another journal on that same paper is still pending is prohibited as well as reporting the same results in somewhat different form.
Authors should take care not to defame other researchers in a personal sense.
Co-authors should be properly and appropriately identified. To be identified as co-author, however, the participant should have contributed to the conception and design of the project, drafted substantive portions of the paper and taken responsibility for the analysis and conclusions of the paper. Other participants with less responsibility should be identified and acknowledged for their contributions.

article publication charges
All articles published in the Proceedings of the Estonian Academy of Sciences are freely available to read, download, re-use and share for non-commercial purposes.

Article processing charges (standard article publication fee or ‘fast track‘ fee, the excess page fee and cost of colour illustrations) are payable by the author, their institution or funder of the research.
