Open Access Policy

Jurnal Keperawatan Komprehensif (Comprehensive Nursing Journal) provides immediate open access to its published articles. Full texts are freely available to readers and their institutions, without subscription fees, registration requirements or an embargo period.

Articles published under this policy are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution–NonCommercial 4.0 International licence (CC BY-NC 4.0). This licence permits users to copy, distribute, reproduce, translate, adapt and build upon the material for non-commercial purposes, provided that appropriate credit is given to the authors and original source, a link to the licence is supplied, and any changes are indicated. No prior permission from the authors or publisher is required for uses permitted by the licence.

Adaptations do not have to be distributed under the same licence, but their terms must not prevent compliance with CC BY-NC 4.0 for the original material. Users may not impose additional legal or technological restrictions that prevent others from exercising the rights granted by the licence. Commercial reuse requires separate permission from the relevant copyright holder unless otherwise permitted by applicable law. Any third-party material excluded from the article’s licence is identified in a credit line or rights statement.

Authors retain copyright and full publishing rights. They grant the journal the right of first journal publication and a non-exclusive licence to publish, reproduce, distribute and preserve their articles, as described in the journal’s Copyright Notice. Authors may also deposit their manuscripts and published articles in accordance with the Deposit or Self-Archiving Policy.

The applicable copyright and licence information is stated on each article’s webpage and in its published full text. Previously published articles remain subject to the valid licences under which they were released; this policy does not revoke permissions already granted under those licences.
