At the process of the preliminary examination, the article’s compliance with the rules of publication and ethics of scientific publishing writings are examined. If there is any request for correction, it is transmitted to the author. The author is expected to make the necessary corrections and then send the article again to us.
After we reach an edited version of the article, it will be sent to the expert referees according to their fields. A double-blind refereeing system is applied in our journal and the referees do not know which article they arbitrate until the arbitration process ends and the article is published. If the article is rejected, referees can’t learn who the author was. Likewise, authors can’t learn which referee arbitrated their articles. As long as the referees’ comments start to be reached, we start to transmit the reports to the authors.
There are three possibilities in the reports of the referee
1. Approval: If two referees give a report for publication of the article, the author is not expected to make any corrections and approval is given by the editors for the publication of the article. It is included in the articles will be published.
2. Correction: If there is a request for correction from the referees, we transmit the points of correction to the authors and the authors are expected to make the corrections. The corrected version of the article is sent to the referees again and the referees give the final decision as rejection or approval at the end of this process.
3. Rejection: It is the situation that the refuree gives refusal for publishing the article. The article can not be published if the refusal comes from the article’s two referees assigned. But if one of two arbitrators gives refusal and the other one gives approval decision, a third referee is appointed for that article. The third arbitrator’s decision is considered as the final decision.
