          Review Article: Open submissions, indexed, peer reviewed


Language
          All manuscripts must be submitted in English.


Peer Review Process
          All submitted manuscripts are screened for similarity using CopyCatch. Manuscripts with a similarity index exceeding 25% (excluding references) will be returned to the authors for revision, and manuscripts found to contain plagiarism will be rejected.
          Manuscripts that pass the initial screening undergo double-blind peer review by at least two experts in the relevant field. Under this process, the identities of both the authors and the reviewers are concealed from each other throughout the review.
          Based on the reviewers' reports, the section editor makes a recommendation, and the editor-in-chief makes the decision:
          Accept: The manuscript is accepted for publication without further revision.
          Revision Required: The author revises the manuscript in response to the reviewers' comments. If a reviewer has requested to see the revised manuscript, it is returned to that reviewer for re-evaluation. The revisions are then verified by the section editor.
          Reject: The manuscript is not accepted for publication.
          The entire process from submission to acceptance typically takes approximately 16–20 weeks. For more information, please see the Peer Review Process page.
