4- Peer Review & Evaluation Process
The manuscripts pre-reviewed by the editors in terms of the aims and scope, and the “Publication Rules” section of the journal, are sent to at least two reviewers for a double blind-peer review process. The double blind peer-review process necessitates concealing the information of the authors from the reviewers and the other way round. The review results are secret and kept for a period of five years. The manuscripts declined in the review process are neither published nor returned to the author(s). The journal refuses to have any legal or administrative responsibility as to this abovementioned procedure. The manuscripts requiring revisions, on the other hand, are sent back to their authors for further changes. It is obligatory that the authors take the demands and the advices of both the reviewers and the editors. However, they are free to submit their objections against the issues they do not agree upon and the decisions of the reviewers on condition that they submit their reasonable grounds. In such cases a third-party reviewer is appealed. Also, a third-party reviewer is appealed for cases where the decisions of two reviewers are mutually exclusive. It is the responsibility of the authors to make their required revisions before their deadlines for re-submission. The editors are authorized to make minor revisions in accordance with the indexing criteria except for those which require substantial changes relevant to the scientific content.
