Review Process

At POLYSCHOLARS JOURNAL, we uphold a rigorous and transparent peer review process to ensure the quality and integrity of the scholarly works we publish. Our peer review process is designed to provide constructive feedback, maintain academic standards, and support authors in enhancing their research contributions. Below is an outline of our peer review process:

1. Manuscript Preparation:

  • Prepare your manuscript in the language of your choice, ensuring it adheres to the specific formatting guidelines of our journal. Use clear and concise language, maintaining appropriate academic writing conventions and style throughout.

2. Editorial Review:

  • Upon submission, the editorial team conducts an initial review to assess whether the manuscript aligns with the journal's scope and follows the prescribed formatting guidelines.
  • Manuscripts that do not meet the journal's criteria or are outside the scope are promptly declined, and the authors are notified.

3. Peer Review Assignment:

  • Suitable manuscripts are assigned to experts in the relevant field for peer review.
  • Reviewers are selected based on their expertise, experience, and absence of any potential conflicts of interest with the authors or the manuscript.

4. Double-Blind Review:

  • Polyscholars Journal offers the option of double-blind review, ensuring that the identities of both the authors and reviewers remain anonymous during the review process.

5. Peer Review Process:

  • Reviewers thoroughly evaluate the manuscript's originality, methodology, significance, and adherence to ethical standards.
  • Reviewers provide constructive feedback on the strengths and weaknesses of the work, offering suggestions for improvement.

6. Editorial Decision:

  • Based on the reviews, the editorial decision may include:
    • Acceptance without revisions.
    • Acceptance with minor revisions.
    • Acceptance with major revisions.
    • Rejection (with clear justification).

7. Author Revision:

  • If revisions are required, authors are given adequate time to address the reviewers' comments and improve their manuscript accordingly.

8. Re-Review (If Applicable):

  • In cases where major revisions are requested, the revised manuscript may be re-evaluated by the original reviewers or additional reviewers.

9. Final Decision:
