Institutional integrity制度公信力
Membership does not influence AURELIS award judging. Reviewers must withdraw where a personal, financial or organisational conflict could affect independence. Decisions may be corrected, suspended or revoked where evidence is false, authorship is misrepresented or professional conduct is seriously breached.会员身份不影响AURELIS奖项评审。存在可能影响独立性的个人、经济或组织关系时,评审人员必须回避。如发现证据虚假、作者身份失实或严重违反专业行为准则,协会可更正、暂停或撤销相关资格。
