Peer Review Process

Peer Review Process

 

Peer review is a process that acts as a filter to ensure only high-quality research is published by assessing the validity, significance, and originality of the study. It also enhances the quality of manuscripts deemed suitable for publication. Peer reviewers give authors suggestions to improve their manuscripts and identify errors that need correction before publication. During the review, reviewers carefully evaluate the manuscript’s content, methodology, originality, and importance. They analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the study, identify errors or gaps in the research, and provide constructive feedback for improvement. Additionally, reviewers may recommend revisions, suggest more details, or propose further analyses as needed.

 

To ensure the scientific quality of our journal, all submissions go through a rigorous and thorough peer review process. The main features of our peer review process are as follows:

 

Double-Blind Peer Review

 

Our journal implements a double-blind peer review process to ensure impartiality and fairness in the evaluation of submissions. Double-blind peer review offers significant advantages by preventing reviewers from being biased. This ensures that the assessment of the paper is based on the quality of its content. By concealing the authors' identities from the reviewers, as is typical in a double-blind review, bias is minimized, and the quality of the evaluation is maintained. As a result, only the most insightful and rigorously researched work is published."

 

 

 Expert Reviewer Selection

 

Reviewer selection is an essential part of the publication process. Our decision is based on various factors, including a reviewer’s expertise, reputation, specific recommendations, potential conflicts of interest, and past performance. We prioritize reviewers who are thorough, prompt, and provide accurate, valuable feedback.
