Referee Process

All manuscripts submitted to the journal are first evaluated by the editors. Manuscripts that do not fall within the scope of the journal or that do not comply with a scientific writing format in terms of content and form requirements are rejected or some changes may be requested before the peer review process is initiated. The journal uses a double-blind referee system, where the names of the referees and authors are kept confidential at every stage of the process. The final evaluation is made by the editor for all articles that come to the publication stage with a positive opinion by the referees. Articles that are decided to be "published" by the editor are put in the order of publication.

Ethics and Plagiarism

Authors must comply with scientific ethical rules. Articles with a plagiarism rate above 20% cannot be published.
