Article Review Process (Double-Blind Peer Review)

InTraders International Trade Academic Journal
(InTraders)
Review Process


1-Editor assignment is made for the field of the article uploaded to the system.
2-Editor: checks the files—checks whether the article is within the scope of InTraders Journal. If there are missing or incomplete files, send the article to the author and request the completion of the deficiencies. After the deficiencies are completed, the editor reads the article. Decide whether the article is suitable for evaluation. If the article is unsuitable for evaluation, the reason is detailed, and the editor rejects the article. If the article is suitable for evaluation, a secretariat is assigned to check the spelling and bibliography of the article.
2-Secretariat: receives the spelling-language report of the article with the paid Grammarly Program and uploads it to the additional files section of the system. The spelling-language report is expected to be 95% and above. A bibliography check is performed. If corrections are necessary in the article, the secretariat indicates the notes on the article. Uploads the correction request file to the additional files section in the system. Completes the process by directing the article to the editor.
3-Editor: According to the secretariat's report, if the study's spelling and grammar need to be corrected, the article is sent to the author. The author makes the necessary revisions and uploads the file to the system.
4-Editor: Sends the article back to the spelling and grammar secretariat.
5-The spelling and grammar secretariat checks whether the requested revision has been made and obtains a spelling and grammar report again with the Grammarly Program. If the report is 95% and above, it is accepted. If the deficiencies are completed, the secretariat completes the process. The study takes on the role of editor. If the necessary corrections are not completed, the editor is informed, and a recommendation is made to reject the study.
6-The editor runs a "two-blind peer referee" process for articles with completed deficiencies. The article is sent to two referees related to the field. The article with incomplete deficiencies is rejected by the editor with a reason as a result of the secretariat's recommendation decision or sent back to the author for correction.
7-Referees: They choose one of four options: rejection, acceptance, major revision, or minor revision. They fill out the evaluation form, and the reasoning for the decision is stated in detail in the report.
For the study to be published, it must be accepted by both referees.
7.1 The referees' reports are examined. The referees must detail their reports. The editor sends the article to new referees when he/she decides that the decisions of both or one of the referees are insufficient, even if both give a favourable decision. Referees who do a superficial review cannot be articleed with in the following periods and are removed from the journal board.

7.2. If one of the referees accepts and the other rejects, the editor may reject the study or send it to a third referee. The decision is the editor's choice.
7.3 If the referees make major/minor revisions to the article, they send them to the author, who makes the necessary corrections and uploads them to the system.
8. A "doi" assignment is made for the article whose processes are completed positively. After the doi is obtained, it is sent to the "final reader editor." The Final Reader Editor reads the study and may request the necessary corrections. If a correction is necessary, upload the report to the system. This completes the process.
9. If there is a correction request in accordance with the final reader editor report, the editor sends the study to the author. The author completes the necessary corrections. If the editor deems it necessary, the study is sent back to the final reader for control purposes.
10. The final reader checks again and completes the process if the corrections are complete. Sends the article to the editor.
11. The editor sends the completed study to the "layout editor," who prepares the article for publication.
12. The article, which has completed all processes positively, will be included in the earliest issue to be published.
*The editor reserves the right to reject all processes. The editor rejects the article for a reason. Reasons for rejection by the editor may be the author uploading incomplete files, not responding to the necessary revision requests or not doing so within the given time, recommendations and justifications of the referees and the secretariat.


The articles submitted for publication in InTraders must have never been published before, not been accepted for publication, and not submitted for publication.

The review process includes the " At least 2 Blind; Peer Review-Scientific Board "process. The aim is to complete the entire process within five months. The ethics committee report should be provided by the writer's institution, and / sampling is necessary for studies involving humans and/or animals.
In the Pre-Exam process, the article consists of three phases; formal, academic and written. The "similarity report", the keyword, JEL code, references and author information are checked in the formal review. The preliminary examination is carried out by the secretariat board. At each stage, the writer is contacted and requested to complete the necessary transactions, and each subsequent step is passed to the next step. It is targeted to meet within ten days according to the author's speed. The acceptable "similarity rate" is a maximum of 20%. If it is below this ratio, the necessary corrections to check the text may be requested.
Scientific Control is carried out by the co-editor and/or editor with two blind referee members in the pre-process completed document. The referees will be provided with the dissemination of the article by "similarity report." It aims to meet the referee process in a total of 2 months by taking preliminary information about the judiciary evaluation process within one week. This period may vary when completing the author's revisions as necessary.
At least two scientific board members are approved to accept the journal. If one of the referees is positive and the other is negative, the article is sent to a third science board member, or the editor may end the process by rejecting the article. Publication of the referee review process is completed with the approval of the journal's editorial board.
