PEER-REVIEW PROCESS

In general, the peer review process includes the following steps:

  1. First, the author submits the manuscript to the editor.
  2. The editor can either:
    • Reject the manuscript and send it back to the author, or
    • Send it onward to the selected peer reviewer(s)
  3. Next, the peer review process occurs. The reviewer provides feedback, addressing any major or minor issues with the manuscript, and gives their advice regarding what edits should be made.
  4. Lastly, the edited manuscript is sent back to the author. They input the edits and resubmit it to the editor for publication.
