The journal editorial office reviews the files uploaded to the system. If the submission contains any of the following technical or ethical errors, the author is asked to correct them or the article is rejected:
i. Incomplete file upload,
ii. The article's analysis with similarity programs reveals more than 20% similarity with other sources,
iii. The article has significant formal deficiencies.

Articles deemed suitable for the pre-flight phase are sent to the reviewers by the editor, and the evaluation process begins.

Reviewer Evaluation

When the reviewer receives an email inviting them to review, they click the "Accept" link. After logging in to the Dergipark system, the reviewer sees the article information they will be reviewing under the "Articles in Progress" tab on the journal page, along with the "Accept Review" and "Reject Review" buttons. By clicking the "Accept Review" button, they accept the review.

The reviewer window displays the article file they will be reviewing and the "Article Review Form." The reviewer can download the article file to their computer and evaluate it by making markings and annotations. You can upload an article file, which includes any comments, corrections, suggestions, and other markings and explanations related to the article, to the journal through the "Process Files" section. Then, you complete the "Article Review Form" and complete the article evaluation by clicking the "Sent Review" button on the right side of the page.

The editor then takes the reviewers' comments into consideration and decides whether to Accept, Correct, or Reject the article.
