The editorial staff provides reviewing of all scientific articles accepted to consideration. Peer review is carried out by invited reviewers. The whole process of peer review proceeds through the E-submission system. Reviewing in the journal is single-blind review, i.e. authors declare their names and affiliations in the manuscript for the reviewers to see, but reviewers do not know each other's identities, nor do the authors receive information about who has reviewed their manuscript.
The standard period for the preparation of one review is 1 month. Please, remember that the work of reviewers is carried out on a voluntary basis, therefore the review period depends on their availability and may be increased.
Based on the review, the reviewer chooses one of the possible conclusions:
- accept;
- send for revision - after the author completes the article, it is sent for re-review;
- reject.
Usually, the editor appoints 2 scientific reviewers per article. But if the opinions of the reviewers are different, the editor may attract additional reviewers.
When sending an article after revision, the author should either correct the suggested by reviewer moments or explain the inability to do so. For discussion with reviewer and editor use the field “Discussion” on the article page. The standard deadline for the revision of the article is 2 weeks. If you need more time for correction, please, inform the editorial staff on the article page.
