Peer Review Process
The editor-in-chief checks scope, format, and quality. This usually takes 3–7 days.
If the manuscript passes screening, 2–3 expert reviewers are invited.
Reviewers do not know the authors' identities, and vice versa. The process typically takes 3–6 weeks.
After reviews are collected, the editor makes one of four decisions: Accept, Minor Revisions, Major Revisions, or Reject.
Responding to Revisions
Reviewer comments will appear in your submission detail page and are emailed to you.
Address each reviewer comment carefully. Prepare a point-by-point response document.
Contact the editorial office to upload your revised file. Your submission will move to Re-review stage.
The revised version is assessed by the same reviewers or the editor directly.
Acceptance & Publication
You will receive an acceptance email with next steps.
A typeset PDF (galley proof) will be sent to you for final checking. Review carefully for any errors.
A DOI is automatically assigned to your article.
Your article goes live in the journal, indexed in OAI-PMH, and submitted to Google Scholar, DOAJ, and other databases.
