Peer Review Process

First, an editor checks the submitted manuscript to determine whether it suits our focus and scope in one/two weeks. An editorial assistant will check whether the requirements are complete in one/two weeks. Authors will be given two weeks after notification is sent to complete the incomplete requirements. Every submitted manuscript that passes initial screening will be checked to identify any plagiarism before being reviewed by reviewers. 

Every submitted manuscript that passes this step will be reviewed by two or three reviewers (double-blind peer review). At least one of the reviewers will be from another institution or country. This manuscript will be sent to the reviewer anonymously. Reviewers' comments are then sent to the corresponding author to take the necessary actions and responses. The reviewing process will generally take 1-2 months, depending on the sufficiency of the information provided.

The Editor will consider the peer review report when deciding but is not bound by its opinions or recommendations through an editorial board meeting. Concerns raised by one peer reviewer or the Editor alone may result in a manuscript being rejected. Authors will then receive the peer review report based on the editorial decision. The results of the review of peer reviewers include: "manuscripts accepted"; "manuscript received with minor revisions"; "manuscript received with major revisions"; or "manuscript rejected".

The Editor will consider the peer review report when deciding but is not bound by its opinions or recommendations through an editorial board meeting. Concerns raised by one peer reviewer or the Editor alone may result in a manuscript being rejected. The accepted manuscript will be checked by a copyeditor for language editing.
