For reviewers
The reviewers should adhere to the following rules:
- Judgments should be objective.
- Reviewers may point out relevant published work which is not yet cited.
- Reviewed articles should be treated confidentially.
- Reviewers should have no conflicts of interest.
Reviewers should strive to provide accurate, detailed, and constructive criticism, and the review should be supported by appropriate references, especially if unfavorable. The reviewer should also note whether the work of others is properly cited.
The time from acceptance to publication is approx. 4 weeks to 4 months. The current acceptance rate is approx. 60%. About 10-20% of the articles are rejected upon submission and do not reach peer-review, due to lack of compliance with the Journal’s Instructions to Authors or English language issues.
