1. Duties of Editors
Publication Decisions: The editor of the journal is responsible for deciding which of the articles submitted to the journal will be published. The validity of the study in question and its importance to researchers and readers are always the basis for such decisions. The editor may meet with other editors or referees while making these decisions.
Peer review: The editor ensures that the peer review process is fair, impartial and timely. Research articles are typically reviewed by at least two external and independent reviewers, and the editor may seek additional comments as needed. The editor selects reviewers with appropriate expertise in the relevant field and avoids selection of fraudulent and biased reviewers.
Impartiality: The editor evaluates articles for their intellectual content, regardless of the authors' race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnicity, nationality, or political philosophy.
Confidentiality: The editor will maintain the confidentiality of all materials submitted to the journal and all communications with the referees, unless otherwise agreed with the respective authors and referees.

Conflicts of Interest: Editors should avoid evaluating articles with conflicts of interest arising from relationships.

2. Responsibilities of the Referees
Contribution to the Editorial Process: Peer review helps the editor make editorial decisions and can assist the author in improving the manuscript through editorial communications with the author. Peer review is central to the scientific method. Reviewers are often asked to treat authors and their work as they would like to be treated, and to follow good review etiquette. Any selected reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in the article or knows that it is impossible to review immediately should notify the editor and decline to participate in the review process.
Confidentiality: All manuscripts received for review should be treated as confidential documents. Reviewers should not share reviews or information about the article with anyone or communicate directly with the authors without the permission of the editor.

Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review should be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage.
Sensitivity to Ethical Issues: The reviewing reviewer should be alert to potential ethical issues in the article and bring them to the editor's attention, including any significant similarities or overlaps between the article under review and other published articles of which the reviewer has personal knowledge.
Objectivity: Reviews of submitted articles should be done impartially. Referees should clearly express their views with supporting arguments.
