Review process
This journal uses a single-anonymous peer review model. This means that the identity of the authors is known to the peer reviewers, but the identity of the peer reviewers is not known to the authors. Please check the full details of this journal's peer review process for more information.
For any questions about the peer review process, please see our review process page or email the Managing Editor at [email protected].
Appeals
To appeal an editorial decision, contact the journal editorial office and specify the reason for your appeal. Appeals should refer to a specific manuscript in question, and should be based upon rational argument. Your appeal will be reviewed by the Editor in Chief and other members of the editorial board, and the final decision regarding your appeal will rest with the Editor in Chief. If you have submitted an appeal and are awaiting an outcome, you should not submit your manuscript for publication elsewhere until you have notified this journal that you wish to withdraw your manuscript from consideration.
