RETRACTED: Professional roles of social work for treating and rehabilitating drug addicts...a field study in the city of Baghdad

Abstract

This paper has been retracted following an investigation conducted by the editorial committee of the Lark Journal of Philosophy, Linguistics and Literature. The investigation confirmed that the manuscript had been submitted to and published in more than one journal, which constitutes a case of multiple, redundant, or concurrent publication.

According to the journal’s policy on publication ethics:

“Papers describing essentially the same research should not be published in more than one journal. Submitting the same paper to more than one journal creates unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable.”

The journal’s policy further states that manuscripts which have already been published elsewhere or are under review by another journal must not be submitted for consideration.

Based on these findings, the editorial board determined that the publication of this article represents a clear violation of the journal’s ethical standards. Consequently, the article has been officially retracted in order to preserve the integrity of the scholarly record.

This retraction has been carried out in accordance with the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and was approved by the editorial board of the journal.
