Please observe the reviewer’s obligations and ethical rules described in the tab Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement.
The reviewing of manuscripts is an essential step in the publication process, and the editors will be very grateful to you for accepting the request for reviewing the materials submitted for publication. In case you feel inadequately qualified or lack the time to fulfill the request, please return the manuscript promptly to the editor.
Manuscripts are peer-reviewed by at least one referee and will not be processed further until favorable report(s) are obtained. A single-blind peer review system is used: the reviewer knows the author’s identity, while the reviewer’s identity remains undisclosed to the author, unless the reviewer voluntarily agrees to disclose their name. The peer-review process is conducted in accordance with the principles of publication ethics, confidentiality, and impartiality, as outlined in the COPE guidelines.
