Peer Review Process
1. Manuscript Submission
Authors upload their research to the online submission system. Submitting an article implies that the work described has not been published previously. The submitted documents must adhere to predetermined guidelines to conceal the authors' identities.
2. Editorial Check
Within five days of submission, each manuscript undergoes a preliminary review by the Editor-in-Chief. The Editor-in-Chief may directly invite reviewers or forward the manuscript to the Section Editors (if applicable) for additional evaluation. Editors assess submissions and check for suitability, with identity information removed as necessary.
3. Reviewer Assignment
At least three expert reviewers are selected and assigned by the editors. The identities of the reviewers are kept confidential.
4. Double-Blind Review
Reviewers evaluate the research and provide feedback, with the authors' identities remaining undisclosed to the reviewers.
5. Editorial Decision
The Editor-in-Chief makes publication decisions based on comments from at least two reviewers, focusing on the quality and originality of the work.
- A manuscript may be declined for review if the editor considers it outside the scope of the journal. The editorial office checks the English language quality of each manuscript before transferring it to the editor. If the English level is inadequate, the manuscript may be declined or returned to the author by the editor.
- If most reviewers recommend acceptance or rejection of the manuscript, the Editor-in-Chief makes the final decision accordingly. For a manuscript to be rejected, it must receive two negative reviews. The editor may also serve as a reviewer. If the editor receives one positive and one negative review, a third reviewer must be assigned. In such cases, the deadline for the third reviewer is shortened to expedite the review process.
- If the reviewers recommend revisions, the manuscript is returned to the authors with reviewer comments. Authors may choose to proceed with the revisions or decline to revise the manuscript. There is no guarantee that the revised manuscript will be accepted for publication. If the authors choose to proceed, they must revise the manuscript and submit it to the journal along with a response letter explaining how the reviewers' comments have been addressed. The Editor-in-Chief then evaluates the revised manuscript and makes the final acceptance or rejection decision.
- If the reviewers recommend resubmission, they will review the revised manuscript and provide additional feedback. The Editor-in-Chief evaluates the re-revised manuscript and makes the final acceptance or rejection decision.
6. Author Notification
Authors are notified of the review outcomes. Revisions and amendments may be requested if necessary.
7. Final Acceptance
After the required revisions are completed, the manuscript proceeds to the final acceptance stage and becomes ready for publication.

The only restrictions on reproduction and distribution, and the only role of copyright in this context, are to ensure that authors retain control over the integrity of their work and receive proper acknowledgment and citation.

Peer review assists editors in making editorial decisions and, through editorial communications with authors, may assist authors in improving their manuscripts. Peer review is an essential component of formal scholarly communication and lies at the heart of scientific endeavor.
Confidentiality of the Review
Reviewers must maintain the confidentiality of any information supplied by the editor or author, and not retain or copy the manuscript. Any manuscripts received for review are confidential documents and must be treated as such; they must not be shown to or discussed with others except if authorized by the Editor-in-Chief (who would only do so under exceptional and specific circumstances). This applies also to invited reviewers who decline the review invitation.
Conflicts of interest on the Review
Reviews should be conducted objectively and observations formulated clearly with supporting arguments so that authors can use them for improving the manuscript. Personal criticism of the authors is inappropriate.

Unpublished material disclosed in a submitted manuscript must not be used in a reviewer’s own research without the express written consent of the authors. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for the reviewer’s personal advantage. This applies also to invited reviewers who decline the review invitation.

Privileged information or ideas obtained by editors as a result of handling the manuscript will be kept confidential and not used for their personal advantage. Editors will recuse themselves from considering manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships/connections with any of the authors, companies or institutions connected to the papers; instead, they will ask another member of the editorial board to handle the manuscript.
Decision on the Submission
Editors ensure that all submitted manuscripts being considered for publication undergo double-blind peer-review by at least two reviewers who are expert in the field. The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for deciding which of the manuscripts submitted to the journal will be published, based on the validation of the work in question, its importance to researchers and readers, the reviewers’ comments, and such legal requirements as are currently in force regarding libel, copyright infringement and plagiarism.
