Review Process

The journal follows a double-blind peer-review process for publishing the manuscript, meaning that both the reviewer and author identities are concealed from the reviewers and vice versa throughout the review process. The process involves the submission of a manuscript by an author to a journal for consideration. After initial screening by the journal editor, the manuscript is then forwarded to two or more expert reviewers who are unaware of the author’s identity. This ensures that the review process is impartial and that the manuscript is judged solely on its merits.

The responsibility of the Managing Editor:

  • The Managing Editor will assess the article submitted by the author and send to the internal reviewers for primary review.
  • The internal reviewers initially reviewed the submitted manuscript to ensure that it complies with the journal’s publication ethics, author’s guidelines, and research areas of the journal.
  • Checking the plagiarism of the submitted manuscript and accepting the plagiarized free manuscript for external review.
