Manuscript Review Process
We employ a two-stage peer-review process to ensure the high quality of the articles published. This process consists of the following steps:
- Internal Editorial Review
Upon submission, each manuscript undergoes an initial evaluation by the editorial team. The purpose of this review is to assess whether the manuscript meets the Journal's focus and quality standards. The editorial team reserves the right to reject manuscripts at this stage if they do not meet these criteria. If accepted, the manuscript proceeds to the second stage of the review process. - External Peer Review
If the manuscript passes the internal review, it is sent to two independent external reviewers who are experts in the relevant field for a double-blind review, ensuring objectivity and impartiality in the evaluation. These reviewers evaluate the manuscript's scientific quality, originality, and contribution to the academic community. Based on their recommendations, the manuscript may be accepted, rejected, or returned to the authors for revision. After the revision, the editorial team will decide on the next steps, which may include sending the revised manuscript back to the external reviewers for further evaluation.
