Although each editorial team sets its own policy, there are common regulations for ethical conduct, which are endorsed by global editorial associations, such as the Committee on Publication Ethics, the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors, the Council of Science Editors, and the World Association of Medical Editors. Guidelines of these associations are helpful for organizing a well-functioning editorial team, performing unbiased quality checks (peer review), and avoiding claims of illegitimate, or ‘predatory’, publishing. Journal editors should be skilled in substantive and ethical editing to contribute to the quality and international visibility of their publications. The role of chief editors is particularly important for selecting highly-skilled sections editors, arranging peer review, and publishing original and ethically sound research and reviews. Also, at the current stage of digitization and proliferation of periodicals, the role of research integrity editors, regional editors, statistical editors, art designers, and invited editors of special issues is gaining importance for international visibility and indexability of the journals.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>В  статье раскрывается вопрос об основных функциях и обязанностях ответственных редакторов научных журналов. Несмотря на то, что каждая редакционная команда проводит собственную редакционную политику, существуют общие этические принципы, одобренные международными профессиональными организациями и ассоциациями редакторов и издателей (Committee on Publication Ethics, International Committee of Medical Journal Editors, Council of Science Editors, World Association of Medical Editors). Рекомендации этих организаций полезны для формирования эффективно функционирующей редакционной команды, для непредвзятой оценки качества рукописей (рецензирования) и исключения «хищнической» практики. Редакторы журналов должны владеть навыками научного и этического редактирования, что позволяет повысить качество и международную видимость публикуемых материалов. Роль главных редакторов особенно важна для привлечения к редакторской работе грамотных редакторов секций (или рубрик), организации рецензирования и публикации новых и этически безукоризненных, оригинальных исследований, обзоров. Кроме того, в условиях неуклонного роста числа периодических изданий, расширения практики оцифровывания особую важность приобретает назначение ответственных за этику публикаций, а также региональных редакторов, статистических редакторов, арт-дизайнеров и редакторов специальных выпусков, приглашенных редакторов специальных выпусков. Выполнение всех этих требований необходимо для повышения международной видимости и индексируемости журналов.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>периодические издания</kwd><kwd>публикационная этика</kwd><kwd>редакторы</kwd><kwd>научные журналы</kwd><kwd>руководства</kwd><kwd>ассоциации редакторов</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>periodicals as topic</kwd><kwd>publication ethics</kwd><kwd>editors</kwd><kwd>academic journals</kwd><kwd>guidelines</kwd><kwd>editorial associations</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Aguinis H., Vaschetto S.
