Peer Review Process

This journal operates a conventional double-blind reviewing policy in which the reviewer's name is always concealed from the submitting author.

Authors should present their papers honestly without fabrication, falsification, plagiarism or inappropriate data manipulation. Submitted papers are evaluated by anonymous referees for contribution, originality, relevance, and presentation.

Papers will be sent for anonymous review who will either be members of the Editorial Board or others of similar standing in the field.

In order to shorten the review process and respond quickly to authors, the Editors may triage a submission and come to a decision without sending the paper for external review.

The Editor shall inform you of the results of the review as soon as possible, hopefully in 8-12 weeks.

The Editors’ decision is final and no correspondence can be entered into concerning manuscripts considered unsuitable for publication in this journal.

All correspondence, including notification of the Editors’ decision and requests for revisions, will be sent by email.
