Article Evaluation Process

Each article is reviewed by the editor and if it is determined to be suitable for publication, it is sent to two independent referees for double-blind peer review. Based on their recommendations and consultations among the relevant Editorial Board members, the editor then decides whether to accept the article as is, revise it or reject it.

Duties of Editors

Editors' Statement of Opinion
Cihansumul Academy Journal of Social Sciences asks its editors to write a short statement about their views that may be seen as having the potential to influence their unbiased evaluations. Such transparency is an ethical duty owed to authors and readers, and is an equal counterpart to the expression of opinion expected from authors, referees and book reviewers. Editorial staff are expected to distance themselves from decision-making arrangements that could potentially create disagreement.


Selection and Duties of Persons to Make the Evaluation

The staff who evaluate the works of Cihansumul Academy Social Sciences Journal are selected from among the experts on the subjects mentioned in the articles. The reasons for their selection are due to their objectivity and scientific knowledge. All people who will make the evaluations are informed about what Cihansumul Academy Journal of Social Sciences expects from them. Each person is asked to fill out an evaluation form and, if necessary, prepare a separate report. Individuals who disagree on the subject of any article are not eligible to review that article (e.g., those who contributed to or collaborated with one of the authors, or are unable to provide an objective opinion on the work; are also employees of, or competitors of, the institution whose work is being reviewed. , people with particular political and ideological views). These people must contact the editorial board and state any possible disagreement/conflict of interest before the article is submitted to the referee committee.

- Evaluations are expected to be professional, honest, tactful, timely and constructive. The essential elements required for a high-quality evaluation are:
- Those who make the evaluation should identify the weak and strong aspects of the working order and methodology and express their comments on them.
- Evaluators should accurately and constructively criticize the author's skill in data processing (taking into account that the data may be limited).
- Evaluators should identify the strengths and weaknesses of the study as a written communication tool, regardless of its design, methodology, results and treatment.
- Evaluators should explain their opinions about whether the study has content that may raise ethical concerns or low scientific standards.
- Reviewers should make useful recommendations to the authors so that the study can be improved.
- Reviewers' criticisms should be constructive and professional towards the author.
- The review should provide the editor with an accurate perspective and context so that he can decide on the acceptance (and/or review) of the work.
- Evaluators are expected to identify studies that do not use citations and to use citations to indicate which elements of the work have been cited previously. Reviewers should also report any striking similarities between the text reviewed and any work published in another journal or referenced in the Cihansumul Academy Journal of Social Sciences.
- Reviewers are strictly expected not to contact the author directly. In many cases, the opinion of two experts will be sought; But the opinions of these experts may not be the same as the editor's final decision on the article in question. Seeking advice, even partial, from a referee may give authors the wrong impression of the review process.
