Peer Review Process

The editors first review the submitted manuscript, which must be plagiarism-free. The maximum limit of similarity is 20%. The submitted manuscript will be evaluated to determine whether it fits our focus and scope or has a major methodological flaw.

The review will consider novelty, objectivity, method, scientific impact, conclusion, and references. Reviewers' comments are then sent to the corresponding author for necessary actions and responses. The suggested decision will be evaluated in an editorial board meeting. Afterward, the editor will send the final decision to the corresponding author.
