Article Evaluation Process

The evaluation stages for the articles you upload to our journal are as follows;
1. First, the article undergoes a preliminary review process.
- The writing format of the article is examined, and a similarity check is conducted using the i-Thenticate program.
- The article's compliance with the sample article template is checked.
- Articles that do not comply with the template are reported to the author, and corrections are requested for the article.

2. The article moves to the Evaluation stage.
Our journal uses the double-blind peer review principle in the article evaluation process. Accordingly, reviewers and authors cannot see each other's information during the evaluation process. Therefore, the authors’ name, address, and affiliations are not included in the uploaded preload format.
The steps in the article evaluation process are as follows;
-At least two reviewers are invited to evaluate the article. Twenty-one days are given for evaluation. If the evaluation process is not completed, an additional seven days will be provided.
-As a result of the evaluations, the article may be rejected, revised, or accepted. Depending on the result, the following item(s) are applied:
a) If the article is rejected in line with the majority of the reviewer's opinions, the process is terminated, and the article is rejected.
b) If revisions are requested for the article, the author must make the necessary revisions within an appropriate time that is in line with the opinions of the reviewers.
c) If the article is accepted, it proceeds to the editing stage.

3. If a correction arises or is overlooked during the article editing stage, it is requested from the author.
4. The process is finalized.
-An information message is sent to the author.
(For manuscripts sent to be published in our journal, the signed copyright transfer form and cover letter form are requested to be added to the system during the initial submission. If the article is accepted, the information is re-checked.)
