Articles, including references,
must be submitted electronically to the e-journal system in conformity with our
writing rules.
All manuscripts sent to Cihannuma
to be published, are checked for
plagiarism. They may be rejected or demanded revision
as a result of plagiarism detection.
The
accepted manuscripts are examined in terms of their conformity with the
principles of journal and formational features by the editorial board. The
approved manuscripts are sent to two reviewers from Turkey and abroad, who are
experts of the related subject. The identity of both reviewers and authors are
kept secret in this process.
Deadline for reviewers to
examine the manuscripts is maximum 30 days.
If reviewer reports include
some suggestions for manuscripts, they are sent to authors in 15 days after
reviewers’ submission. Authors revise their works according to the suggestions
of reviewers. Yet, if they disagree with some points of reviewers’ suggestions,
they express reasons for their disagreement.
Manuscripts receiving one positive
and one negative report are sent to third reviewer. Third reviewer’s report
determines the decision to approve or reject the publishing of manuscript.
Articles concluded with a
positive review process are published in order, according to the completion
dates of reviewers’ reports.
Authors imply to have accepted
the rights of editor, editor assistants, and English language expert in
revising their accepted manuscripts, without making a basic change in the text.
This journal keeps the right
to submit manuscripts under review to investigation of the support institutions
or other authorities if there is a possible scientific error and claim to
ethical violation in them. Cihannuma bears the responsibility of following the
case properly; yet does not exercise power of pursuing investigation and
deciding about errors.
