Upon publication, authors agree to transfer the copyright of the article to Jurnal Lintas Keperawatan (JLK), and the journal holds the copyright for the published version of the article. Authors remain fully responsible for the scientific content of their work.

The complete terms are described in the Copyright Notice.

Although the copyright is held by the journal, authors retain the right to reuse their published work in their own teaching, presentations, theses, and future works, and to deposit it in institutional repositories with proper citation to JLK.

Authors' Responsibilities

Authors are solely responsible for ensuring that their manuscripts do not infringe any copyright, trademark, patent, or other intellectual property rights of third parties.

If a manuscript includes figures, tables, images, questionnaires, or other materials previously published or owned by others, authors must obtain written permission from the rights holder and cite the source appropriately. The journal may request proof of such permission before publication.
