Screening for Plagiarism/Similarity
All submissions are checked for plagiarism using iThenticate/Turnitin before they undergo the peer-review process.
Peer Review Process
The submitted papers should be original, unpublished, and not in consideration for publication elsewhere at the time of submission to this journal. All paper submissions will be refereed in a double-blind review process by at least two international reviewers with expertise in the relevant subject area.
The editorial process for manuscript submissions involves several key steps to ensure the quality and integrity of the published work. Here's an overview of the process:
Editorial Review and Peer Review
- Editorial Review: Upon submission, the manuscript undergoes an initial review by the Journal editor to check for basic compliance with submission guidelines.
- Double-Blind Peer Review: The manuscript is then subjected to a double-blind peer review process, where:
- The identities of both reviewers and authors are concealed.
- All indicators of identity such as names and affiliations are removed to ensure impartiality.
Reviewer Evaluation Criteria
Reviewers, usually two to three experts in the relevant field, evaluate the manuscript based on:
- Scientific soundness and coherence.
- Originality and absence of duplication with already published work.
- Clarity and comprehensibility of the manuscript.
- Interest and significance of the research.
Editorial Decision-Making
The editors make a decision based on the reviewers' reports. In some cases, they may consult with the Editorial Board. The possible decisions include:
- Accept Submission: The manuscript is accepted for publication, potentially with minor editorial revisions.
- Revisions Required: Manuscripts with minor issues, such as spelling or punctuation errors, are returned to authors for revision.
- Resubmit for Review: Manuscripts requiring significant reworking are returned to the authors for substantial revisions and resubmission. The resubmitted manuscript may be accepted or rejected based on further review.
- Decline Submission: Manuscripts may be rejected for reasons such as lack of originality, insufficient conceptual advancements, or major technical and interpretational issues.
Revision and Resubmission
Authors are expected to carefully revise their manuscripts based on reviewers' comments. This includes:
- Examining sentence structure, completeness, and accuracy of the text.
- Checking references, tables, and graphic contents.
- Decision Timeline
The time to reach a final decision varies depending on factors such as the number of reviews required and the responsiveness of the authors in making necessary revisions.
