The scientific collection “Ukrainian Peasant” fully adheres to the “Recommendations on the Use of AI in Scholarly Communication” developed by the European Association of Science Editors and the recommendations of leading scientometric databases, including WoS and Scopus (https://www.elsevier.com/about/policies-and-standards/generative-ai-policies-for-journals).

Artificial intelligence (AI) is considered a tool that may enhance the efficiency of scholarly work; however, all results obtained with its assistance must be carefully verified and professionally interpreted.

The editorial board expects authors to voluntarily declare the use of AI in preparing materials. Upon manuscript submission, uploading a separate file titled “Author’s Declaration on the Use of AI” is mandatory, specifying the purpose and method of AI use. The content of the declaration is included at the end of the article before the reference list.

The use of generative AI to create or modify images is prohibited (except when it is part of the research design and properly described).
A structural component titled “Use of AI” must be added at the end of the article, containing information about AI application.
The journal’s policy is based on the principles of academic integrity and transparency in the use of modern technologies in scholarly activity.
For structured disclosure of AI use, authors are recommended to complete the GAIDeT Declaration (Generative AI Delegation Taxonomy) following this link: https://panbibliotekar.github.io/gaidet-declaration/index-uk.html. The completed declaration must be submitted together with the manuscript.
Editorial boards are recommended to disclose any use of AI, including screening tools that detect whether (parts of) manuscripts or peer review reports were created or edited by AI.
The editorial board does not recommend using AI for peer review. However, the editors cannot guarantee that reviewers do not use AI. Reviewers are asked to be максимально honest and inform editors how and with what results AI was used.
