The blind peer-reviewing process is operated in our journal. In order for an article to be published, it is necessary to have the opinion of the referee that it can be published by at least two referees. Each anonymous article without author information is directed to 2 referees after editorial review. If two referees give a positive opinion, the article is accepted for publication. If one of the referees gives a positive opinion and the other a negative opinion about the article, the article is directed to the third referee. The process related to the article is completed with the opinion of the third referee. Referee evaluations are shared with the author. The author should make corrections on the article according to the evaluations of the referees and upload the corrected version of the article to the system. In studies that require the permission of the ethics committee, it should be stated that the ethical rules are followed by specifying the date and number of the ethics committee document in the method section of the article. After the evaluation process is completed, the articles accepted for publication should be finalized by the author(s) and uploaded to the journal site by adding the author's information.

In studies that require ethics committee approval, it should be written that ethical rules are followed with the expression "Ethics Statement" (given the date and number of the ethics committee document), which you can see in detail in the article template after the bibliography at the end of the article. If your study is not included in the study group that requires the permission of the ethics committee, you must sign the declaration form stating this situation and specify the relevant situation in the “Ethical Declaration” text. Studies submitted to the journal must not have been previously published in another journal or sent to another journal for publication. Candidate articles sent to ÇYBD are scanned with the plagiarism program. The upper limit of the similarity rate was determined as 20% by the decision of the Editorial Board. Candidate articles with a similarity rate above this value are directly rejected. A candidate article may be rejected by the decision of the Editorial Board or the Field Editor before the referee review process begins or without being evaluated if it does not comply with the article template and writing rules of the ÇYBD. Authors have to fill in the "Copyright Transfer Form" for their articles, scan the signed version and upload it to the system. With this form, the publishing rights of the articles, sent to ÇYBD are transferred to EYUDER. In the evaluation process, it is adopted with the principle of blind refereeing (double-blinding method) and the candidate articles are sent to at least two referees and, if deemed necessary, to a third referee. The editor, field editor, author and referees are obliged to comply with the principles of scientific publication ethics. According to the TÜBITAK Research and Publication Ethics Committee Regulation (TÜBITAK, 2018), behaviours contrary to ethical rules are explained.
