Content that may be harmful to human population groups:
We believe that authors, editors, reviewers and publishers need to be mindful about research and its dissemination that may potentially harm population groups, as a result of discrimination in the assumptions or framing, methodology, interpretation or presentation of the research. We achieve this by presenting principles and guidelines intended to assist those considering the interests of population groups and also ethical aspects of various forms of discrimination.
Inclusive language guidance:
Springer Nature is committed to supporting clear and unbiased communication of research, consistent with our commitment to embedding inclusive principles in our editorial and publishing practices. Therefore we recommend that all authors review the Springer Nature Inclusive Language guide (available in our diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) hub) when writing, to ensure accurate, culturally sensitive, and bias-free language.
