An editorial service fee of 500 TL is charged from the authors who want to submit an article to the Journal of Young Thinkers. Whether the article is published or not, this fee is non-refundable. If the article is not accepted for publication, the author can submit a second article to the journal without paying an additional service fee. Based on the decision taken by the Council of Higher Education on March 7, 2019:

"Journals that charge a fee or additional fee from the author for publication after the acceptance of the article (Predatory/Questionable Journals) cannot be used in the application conditions (declaration) for associate professorship, as this relationship involves a conflict of interest. However, it should be added to the resume and the list of works.

In this context, the following journals can be used in the associate professorship application requirements (declaration):

- Journals that receive a fee during article submission - regardless of acceptance/rejection,

- Journals that charge a fee to make the relevant article open access, although they work on a subscription basis,

- Journals that do not charge any fees from the authors during the article printing process


It receives the editorial service fee for the Journal of Young Thinkers at the time of application. For this reason, you can easily use our journal in Associate Professor applications. Respectfully announced to our authors.
