Peer Review Process

All manuscripts submitted to this journal must follow the focus and scope, as well as the author guidelines. Submitted manuscripts must demonstrate scientific merit or novelty appropriate to the journal's focus and scope. The similarity index of all manuscripts must not exceed 20% after similarity checking. Authors are encouraged to use plagiarism detection software to check similarity. Editors will use Turnitin software to check the similarity of articles submitted to this journal.

Research articles submitted to this journal will undergo a single-blind peer review by at least two reviewers. Reviewers are given 4 to 8 weeks to complete the review process. They provide scientifically valuable comments to improve the content of the manuscript.

Generally, reviewers are selected based on their reputation. The Editor sends an invitation letter to the selected reviewers. Once the reviewers confirm their availability, the Editor creates an account for them and sends the manuscript via the Online Journal System (OJS). The final decision on article acceptance will be made by the Editors based on the reviewers' comments. The publication of accepted articles, including the sequence of published articles, will be determined by the Editor-in-Chief, considering the acceptance date, geographical distribution of authors, and thematic issues.

Please note that this journal does not provide a fast-track publication option and does not accommodate submissions that do not go through the OJS process.
