Peer Review Process

Each work sent to the journal is given a code and all work reaches the editor through the system. The work prepared in accordance with journal writing rules is subject to preliminary evaluations by the journal editors. In terms of the purpose, scope and conformity of the journal, the studies that are deemed appropriate in the preliminary evaluation by the journal editors are sent to at least two referees (with a double-blind review system) to be examined and evaluated in terms of scientific form. The author(s) may report the names of the referees that they do not want their studies to be examined by or can make referee recommendations. Studies that do not receive positive reports from the referees are not published and are not given back to the author(s). Administrative and judicial responsibility are not accepted in this regard. The works requested correction by the referees are sent to the author (s) for the necessary changes. The authors consider the requests, suggestions and warnings of the referees and editors. However, they can appeal against the issues they disagree with and referee decisions, provided that they give reasons. It is the author's responsibility to submit all these corrections and objections (in a detailed response to each referee) in a Word format report file and to submit the corrected work (text) to the journal within the specified time. The Editor/Editors have the authority to make minor, non-essential corrections to the articles to be published in accordance with the indexing criteria. The referees' opinions are recommendations only for the editors to make the final decision. The final decision belongs to the editors. As a result of the referee evaluation, the studies decided to be published by the journal editor and the editorial board are published in the journal. After the typesetting that can be published in the journal is made, it is sent to the responsible author and asked to review it before printing. The responsibility of the errors that appear in the article as printed in the journal belongs to their authors. All kinds of responsibility (scientific, professional, legal, ethical, etc.) of the articles published in our journal belong to the authors. The published articles are copyrighted and cannot be transferred without reference.
