Peer Review Process

Peer Review Policy

Journal of Isra Hikmat uses double-blind peer review to review manuscripts, so the reviewers do not know the author's identity or vice versa.

 

 


Peer Review Process

A- The initial review stage (7-10 Days)

At this stage, the articles are checked in terms of format and compliance with the structure of the journal, and the articles that are consistent with the structure of the journal are sent to the editor for initial evaluation. If they match the topic of the publication, they will be initially approved and go to the judging stage. At this stage, two suitable referees will be selected for these articles. This step usually takes between 7 and 10 working days.

 

B- The Review stage (1-3 Months)

At this stage, the articles will be sent to at least two reviewers who are experts in the subject of the article. After the review, a decision will be made for them based on the result. Articles that need corrections and revisions are sent to the authors. Articles that are not qualified for publication, in the opinion of the reviewers, will be rejected at this stage, and the responsible author will be informed.

 

C- The Revision stage (15-20 Days)

At this stage, the author or authors of the article must make revisions based on the reviews within a maximum of 15 days from the date of receiving the article or explain their reasons for not needing revisions through the journal website. An article may need to be revised two or three times before its content is deemed acceptable by the journal editors.

 
D- The final acceptance stage

After revising the article based on the reviewer's comments or providing sufficient reasons for not needing revisions, the article will be put in the publication queue, and a written letter about the final acceptance and publication of the article will be sent to the author.
