Article Evaluation Process

The double blind review process takes place in nine steps.

1- Authors upload their articles via Dergipark system.

2- The article is checked for compliance with the purpose and scope of the journal.

3- Similarity Report is prepared and uploaded to the system. Articles with a similarity rate above 20 per cent are returned to the author.

4- If the similarity rate is below 20 per cent, a report is prepared and uploaded to the system by checking compliance with the writing template.

5- Articles prepared in accordance with the template are directed to the field editor.

6- At least two (2) referees related to the subject of the article are appointed by hiding the names of the authors.

7- Authors re-upload the corrections specified in the reports by the referees through the DergiPark system. The revisions and additions made are indicated in the text with a different colour and the ‘response to reviewer’ file is created and uploaded to the system by the author.

8- If the reviewers want to see it again, the revised manuscript is redirected to the relevant reviewer.

9- With the approval of at least 2 (two) reviewers, the decision stage of the Editorial Board is passed.
