Jurnal Muta'allim takes responsibility for maintaining the integrity and completeness of the scientific record of our content for all end users very seriously. Changes to articles published online can only be made under the circumstances outlined below. Jurnal Muta'allim places great importance on the authority of articles once published, and our policy is based on best practices within the academic publishing community.

An erratum is a statement by the authors of the original article that briefly explains any corrections resulting from errors or omissions. Any impact on the article’s conclusions should be noted. Corrected articles are not removed from the online journal, but an erratum notice is provided. Errata are available free of charge to all readers and are linked to the corrected article.

A retraction is a notice that the article should not be considered part of the scientific literature. Retractions are issued when there is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable. This may result from misconduct or honest error; if the findings have previously been published elsewhere without proper reference, permission, or justification; if the work is plagiarized; or if the work reports unethical research. To protect the integrity of the record, retracted articles are not removed from the online journal. However, a retraction notice is provided, available freely to all readers, and linked to the retracted article. Authors may publish a retraction when they have discovered substantial scientific errors; in other cases, the Editor or Publisher may conclude that a retraction is appropriate. In all cases, the retraction indicates the reason for the action and who is responsible for the decision. If the retraction is made without unanimous approval from the authors, this is also noted. The Publisher may edit or remove articles in rare and extreme cases involving legal infringements. Bibliographic information about the article will be retained to ensure the integrity of the scientific record.

A Publisher's Note informs readers that an article has been corrected after publication. This note is issued by the Publisher and is used in cases where typographical or production errors (which are the Publisher's responsibility) affect the integrity of the article’s metadata (such as title, author list, or author line) or would significantly impact the reader’s ability to understand the article. The original article is removed and replaced with the corrected version. The Publisher’s Note is freely available to all readers. Minor errors that do not affect the integrity of the metadata or the reader's ability to understand the article and do not involve scientific errors or omissions will be corrected at the Publisher's discretion.

In such cases, the original article is removed and replaced with the corrected version. The date of correction is noted on the corrected article. Authors should also be aware that the original article can only be removed and replaced with a corrected version less than one year after the original publication date. Corrections to articles with a publication date older than one year will only be documented by a Publisher’s Note.
