Peer-Review Statement
At Academic Journal of Research and Scientific Publishing, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of academic quality and research integrity. To ensure this, all submitted manuscripts undergo a rigorous double-blind peer review process prior to acceptance and publication.
Peer Review Model
We apply the double-blind peer review system, in which:
- Authors do not know the identity of the reviewers.
- Reviewers remain anonymous to the authors.
This approach is designed to promote objectivity and eliminate potential bias in the evaluation process.
Selection of Reviewers
Each manuscript is reviewed by at least two independent experts in the relevant field. Reviewers are selected based on:
- Subject-matter expertise
- Absence of conflicts of interest
- Prior academic experience
Review Process and Timeline
The typical peer review process consists of the following steps:
- Initial Editorial Assessment (to check scope and basic quality)
- Peer Review Invitation and Assignment
- Review Period (usually 1–2 weeks per round)
- Author Revision(s) (if required)
- Final Editorial Decision
Ethics and Integrity
The peer review process is guided by the ethical standards recommended by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). All parties—authors, editors, and reviewers—are expected to adhere to the principles of transparency, confidentiality, fairness, and accountability.
Reviewer Guidelines
Reviewers are asked to evaluate manuscripts based on:
Originality and significance, Methodological soundness, Clarity of presentation, Validity of conclusions,and Proper referencing.
They are also encouraged to provide constructive feedback to help authors improve their work, regardless of the decision outcome. For more information on the review guidelines, click
