Journal of Education of the São Francisco Valley

he Revista de Educação do Vale do São Francisco (REVASF) has incorporated into its editorial policy the requirement of a Declaration on the Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tools as part of the manuscript submission process.

Under this updated policy, authors must indicate at the time of submission whether Artificial Intelligence tools were used in preparing their work and, if so, transparently describe the purposes and stages in which these technologies were employed. In addition to the information provided in the manuscript, a separate declaration on the use of AI must be uploaded as an individual file.

This measure seeks to strengthen the principles of transparency, integrity, authorial responsibility, and good practices in scholarly communication, in view of the growing presence of AI technologies in research and academic production.

The adoption of this declaration does not prohibit the responsible use of these tools. Rather, it aims to ensure that their use is properly disclosed and consistent with REVASF’s ethical and editorial principles. Authors remain fully responsible for the content, originality, accuracy of the information provided, and compliance with good academic and scientific practices.

The declaration template is available in REVASF’s Guidelines for Authors and must be submitted as part of the manuscript submission process.
