Review Process

Review Process

As an open access journal, our review process is structured to ensure that high-quality, original research is published efficiently and promptly. Below are the key steps involved:

1. Submission: Authors submit their manuscript according to the journal’s guidelines and policies.
2. Initial Check: The editorial team conducts an initial assessment to ensure that the manuscript adheres to the journal’s standards in terms of scope, formatting, and ethical compliance. If the manuscript meets these requirements, it proceeds to the peer review stage.
3. Peer Review: The manuscript is sent to at least two independent reviewers with relevant expertise. Reviewers evaluate the manuscript for its scientific rigor, originality, impact, as well as its methodology, data analysis, and conclusions. They are expected to provide their feedback within a specified time frame.
4. Editorial Decision: Based on the reviewers’ feedback, the editor will decide whether to accept the manuscript, request revisions, or reject it. The corresponding author is notified of the decision along with the reviewers' comments and recommendations.
5. Revisions: If revisions are required, the corresponding author is given the opportunity to make the necessary changes and resubmit the manuscript. The revised version is then sent back to the original reviewers for further evaluation.
6. Final Decision: After the manuscript is revised and re-evaluated, the editor makes a final decision regarding its acceptance for publication. The corresponding author is notified of this final decision.
