Our rigorous double-blind peer review process
All manuscripts undergo double-blind peer review where both the author and reviewer identities are concealed. This ensures unbiased evaluation based solely on academic merit.
Each manuscript is reviewed by at least two independent experts in the field. Reviewers evaluate originality, methodology, clarity, significance, and relevance. The editor makes the final decision based on reviewer recommendations. A minimum of two completed reviews is required before an editorial decision is made.
The review process typically takes 4-8 weeks from submission to first decision. Authors will be notified of the decision and any required revisions. We aim to provide constructive feedback to all authors regardless of the outcome.
Reviewers assess manuscripts on a 1-10 scale across seven criteria: Originality, Methodology, Technical Quality, Clarity, Significance, Relevance, and Overall assessment. Detailed narrative feedback is provided to authors alongside scores.
