Papers must be submitted on the understanding that they have not been published elsewhere and are not currently under consideration by another journal. The submitting author is responsible for ensuring that the article’s publication has been approved by all the other coauthors. When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his/her own published work, it is the author's obligation to notify the publisher and cooperate with the editor to retract or correct the paper. It is also the authors’ responsibility to ensure that the articles emanating from a particular institution are submitted with the approval of the necessary institution. Only an acknowledgment from the editorial office officially establishes the date of receipt. Further correspondence and proofs will be sent to the author(s) before publication unless otherwise indicated. It is a condition of submission of a paper that the authors permit editing of the paper for readability.

Reviewer Process Information

BAJECE employs a single-blind peer review process to ensure scientific quality, fairness, and transparency. In this review model, reviewers are able to see the authors’ names and affiliations, while authors do not have access to the reviewers’ identities. This approach allows reviewers to provide objective, detailed, and constructive feedback while maintaining their anonymity.

All submitted manuscripts are first evaluated by the Editorial Board for relevance, structure, and adherence to journal guidelines. Papers that meet the initial criteria are then assigned to at least two independent reviewers who are experts in the related research area. Reviewers assess manuscripts based on originality, technical accuracy, clarity, methodology, and scientific contribution.

Authors are required to revise their papers according to reviewers’ comments and suggestions within the given time frame. The final publication decision—acceptance, revision, or rejection—is made by the Editor-in-Chief after considering the reviewers’ recommendations and the scientific merit of the manuscript.

This single-blind review process ensures impartial evaluation, promotes academic integrity, and supports high-quality scientific publication standards in BAJECE.
