Reviewer Guideline

Responsibilities of a Peer Reviewer

The primary duty of a peer reviewer is to provide constructive criticism by reading and evaluating the manuscript within their expertise. Subsequently, the peer reviewer is responsible for offering constructive suggestions and honest feedback to the submitting article's author. Discussing the strengths and weaknesses of the article, suggesting ways to enhance the paper's quality, and evaluating the manuscript's relevance and originality are all part of the reviewer's responsibilities.

Before commencing the review process, several points should be noted:

  1. Does the requested article align with your expertise? If not, please inform the editor and recommend an alternative reviewer.
  2. Do you have sufficient time to review this paper? The review process should be completed within two weeks. If more time is needed, inform the editor or suggest an alternative reviewer.
