Reviewers

Guidelines for Reviewers

  • Reviewers should not share any information from an assigned manuscript with outsiders without prior permission from the Editor.
  • Reviewers with fair expertise should complete the review. Assigned Reviewers with inadequate expertise should feel responsible and may decline the review.
  • A reviewer should explain and support his or her judgment clearly enough that Editors and Authors can understand the basis of the comments. A reviewer should not use any kind of abusive language while commenting on an article. Judgment of each article should be done without any bias and personal interest by the assigned reviewer.
  • The Reviewer’s decision should solely depend on scientific merit, relevance to the subject, and scope of the journal rather than financial, racial, ethnic origin, etc., of the authors.
  • Reviewers should morally abide to provide the review comments within the stipulated time and be active enough in responding to the queries raised by the editor, if any.
