ORCID Policy

To ensure accurate author identification and enhance the integrity of scholarly communication, the Journal of Complementary Therapies in Midwifery and Nursing (JCTMN) requires that all corresponding authors provide an Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID) at the time of manuscript submission.

Authors are encouraged to register for a free ORCID iD at https://orcid.org if they do not already have one. The ORCID iD will be published alongside the author’s name to support transparency, disambiguate authorship, and facilitate connections between researchers and their publications, affiliations, and contributions.

Co-authors are also encouraged to provide their ORCID iDs to promote recognition of collaborative research. The editorial system supports ORCID authentication and allows automatic linking of article metadata to authors' ORCID profiles.

By implementing this policy, JCTMN upholds best practices in scholarly publishing and contributes to a more connected and credible research ecosystem.
