Section Policies

 

Peer Review Process

The submitted manuscripts are subject to a peer review process. The purpose of peer review is to assist the Editor in making editorial decisions and through the editorial communication with the author it may also assist the author in improving the paper. The review process is single-blind (identity of the author is known to the referee, but the authors do not know the identity of the referee). Usually, one reviewer is assigned per paper. Reviewers have three months to prepare a review and they are not paid.

The choice of reviewers is at the Editors' discretion. The reviewers should be knowledgeable about the subject area of the manuscript; they must not be from the authors' own institution and they should not have recent joint publications with any of the authors.

All of the reviewers of a paper act independently and they are not aware of each other’s identities. If there is more than one reviewer assigned and their decisions are not all the same (accept/reject), the Editor may assign additional reviewers. During the review process the Editor may require from authors to provide additional information (including raw data) if it is necessary for the evaluation of the scholarly merit of the manuscript. These materials shall be kept confidential and must not be used for personal gain.

The Editorial Team shall ensure reasonable quality control for the reviews. With respect to reviewers whose reviews are convincingly questioned by authors, special attention will be paid to ensure that the reviews are objective and high in academic standard. When there is any doubt with regard to the objectivity of the reviews or quality of the review, additional reviewers will be assigned.
