Publication Evaluation Process and Results
Applications for articles to be sent to the journal for publication are made through the DergiPark system by becoming a member at https://dergipark.org.tr/gaziturkiyat, and then the work is processed for evaluation. Applications not made through the system are not taken into consideration.

Referees can decide on the appropriateness of a study by examining the corrections, and if necessary, they can request corrections more than once.
If one of the referee reports is positive and the other is negative, the article is sent to a third referee. Authors review their articles by taking into account the criticisms and suggestions of the Editorial Board and the referees. Authors who have objections on this issue can prepare a report with their reasons and submit it to the Editorial Board. A copy of the articles that are not deemed suitable for publication can be returned to the authors upon request.
The opinions received from the referees are reviewed by the editors within 2 weeks at the latest. As a result of this review, the editorship makes its final decision to present to the editorial board. The work that receives two positive reports is put in the publication queue. The Editorial Board has the right to make corrections to the submitted articles, to publish or not to publish the articles.

Objection Process
At Gazi Türkiyat, author(s) have the right to object to the results of the publication evaluations and the opinions of the editor and editorial board conveyed to the author(s). Author(s) can send their objection reasons regarding the opinions and comments made as a result of the evaluation of their work, in scientific language and by referencing their basis, by e-mail to gaziturkiyat@gmail.com. During these objections, author(s) cannot send their revised articles. The objections made are reviewed by the editor and editorial board within one month at the latest and a positive or negative response is provided to the author(s). If the objections of the author(s) are found positive as a result of the evaluation, the editorial board reassigns a referee appropriate to the subject area of the study and restarts the evaluation process.
Conflicts of Interest
Gazi Türkiyat has a process for article submissions from editors or editorial board members to ensure impartial review. Such submissions are first directed to other journals, and if this is not possible, the submission owner's position in the journal is suspended. These article submissions are again evaluated through a double-blind peer review process.
