EDITORIAL REVIEW and ACCEPTANCE
The acceptance criteria for all papers are the quality and originality of the research and its significance to our readership. Except where otherwise stated, manuscripts are single-blind peer reviewed by two anonymous reviewers,
the Referee selected by Executive Editors, and the Editor.
Final acceptance or rejection rests with the Editor-in-Chief, who reserves the right to refuse any material for publication.
Authors may present names of potential reviewers and of reviewers whom they would prefer not to review the manuscript. The choice of reviewers remains the Editor’s prerogative. A manuscript requiring revision will be returned to the author by email, along with specific suggestions for revision. Authors should follow the instructions below to submit revised manuscripts:
• The author should reply to the suggestions clearly in the “Author’s Response” section by indicating places where revisions have been made, and/or by stating reasons for disregarding other suggestions if they are thought to be unacceptable.
• Modified parts should be highlighted using underline or colored font.
Manuscripts should be written so that they are intelligible to the professional reader who is not a specialist in the particular field. They should be written in a clear, concise, direct style. Where contributions are judged as acceptable for publication on the basis of scientific content, the Editor and the Publisher reserve the right to modify typescripts to eliminate ambiguity and repetition and to improve communication between author and reader. If extensive alterations are required, the manuscript will be returned to the author for revision.
