About the Journal

Peer Review Process

The Journal subjects all papers to double-blind peer review policy. Process of review consists of following steps:

 

  1. Secretary of Editorial Board checks if a given paper is written in accordance with Author Guidelines (technical requirements). If yes, then paper goes to the second stage of the process. If not, paper is rejected.

     
  2. Secretary of Editorial Board removes author's personal information from the paper and sends it to Features Editors.

     
  3. Features Editors initially scrutinise papers eliminating these which contain factual mistakes, are not original scientific articles, or are not within the Journal's subject-matter etc. Accepted papers are sent to experts in a given field (professors from the outside of the Journal and Nicolaus Copernicus University) and undergo the process of proper peer review.

     
  4. Employing standard form, peer review is double-blind which means that the identity of authors is concealed from reviewers and vice versa. As the upshot of the process a given paper can be accepted for publication, accepted after author's revision, or rejected.
