All manuscripts are considered confidential and are reviewed by at least two reviewers. The journal uses a single-blind peer-review process (the authors do not know the identity of the referees). Before reviewing, all submitted manuscripts are inspected by Similarity Check, a plagiarism-screening tool. Reviewers are selected according to their expertise in their particular field of research, identified as specialists in their respective academic areas. Submitted manuscripts should be prepared according to the Instructions for Authors. Each reviewer makes a specific recommendation to the Editor-in-chief for the manuscript, and his decision includes one of the three recommendations as follows:

  • Acceptance in the initial form
  • Conditional acceptance (minor/major changes in form, style, and/or content)
  • Rejection

The evaluation decision is communicated to the author(s). When a manuscript is returned to the corresponding author for revision, it should be sent to the Editor within three months. Author(s) are guided through every step.
