Peer Review Process

The peer review process is as follows.

1. The submitted manuscript is first reviewed by an editor. The editor evaluates it for suitability to the journal's focus and scope, major methodological flaws and similarity scores using Turnitin. The decision is either rejection or acceptance for review.

2. The manuscript will be sent to at least two anonymous reviewers (Double Blind Review).

3. Reviewers' comments and suggested decisions are then sent to the editor. The editor will evaluate the reviewers' comments and make a suggested decision.

4. The editor will send the final decision to the corresponding author for necessary actions and responses. The decision is accepted, revised, or rejected.

5. The revised paper from the author is then evaluated by the editor for an accepted, revised, or rejected decision.

6. The accepted manuscript then proceeds to the copyediting and layout editing process to prepare the camera-ready paper.
