Peer Review Process

To ensure the quality and integrity of its publications, each manuscript submitted to the journal undergoes the following review process:

• Initial Screening (Desk Review):
  All submitted manuscripts are first evaluated by the editorial team to ensure compliance with the journal’s author guidelines and submission requirements.

• Double-Blind Peer Review:
  Manuscripts that meet the above criteria are then reviewed by at least two independent reviewers under a double-blind review process. In this system, both the authors’ and reviewers’ identities remain anonymous. Reviewers may be members of the Editorial Board or external experts invited by the journal.

• Review Timeline:
  Each reviewer is expected to complete the evaluation within one month. Based on the reviewers’ feedback, the editorial decision is typically communicated within 2 to 12 weeks from the initial submission date.

• Plagiarism Check:
  Manuscripts that pass the Double-Blind Peer Review are subjected to plagiarism detection using Turnitin. Submissions must not exceed a similarity index of 20%.

• Final Decision:
  After receiving the reviewers’ reports, the Editor makes the final decision regarding acceptance, revision, or rejection of the manuscript.
