Child Health Nursing Research does not currently advertise or permit advertising. However, we adhere to the following principles regarding advertisements. Our advertising policy is in agreement with the principles presented in Recommendations on Publication Ethics Policies for Medical Journals, which was issued by the World Association of Medical Editors (WAME) (https://wame.org/recommendations-on-publication-ethics-policies-for-medical-journals).

The publisher shall not bear responsibility for incidental or consequential losses caused by errors occurring in the process of displaying or printing an advertisement.
• 3. In all advertisements, it should be possible to clearly identify the advertiser through a noticeable trademark or signature, and advertisements should therefore be clearly and immediately distinguishable from editorial content.
