Peer Review

Journals may operate single-blind, double-blind, open review, or editorial-review-only workflows depending on their mission and policy configuration.

The platform applies reviewer visibility rules so that author identity, title pages, and confidential notes are only shown where policy permits.

Reviewers are invited based on subject fit, availability, and conflicts of interest, and they are expected to provide constructive, timely, evidence-based feedback.

Comments to authors and confidential comments to editors are stored separately to support fair communication boundaries.

Editorial decisions are made by authorized editorial roles and recorded as permanent history linked to the manuscript version reviewed.

Where revision is requested, authors respond through controlled revision submission flows rather than by editing the original submission in place.
