For the publication of the study, the overall similarity index should not exceed 20% and should not exceed 3% for a single publication. In the case of articles derived from postgraduate theses, the overall similarity index should not exceed 20%, 10% in the primary source, and 3% in a single publication. The similarity index of submitted articles is also checked by our journal using the iThenticate program both in the initial stage and after the completion of the peer review process, before entering the acceptance phase.

Article Evaluation Process:

The articles submitted for publication undergo the following stages: INITIAL SCREENING, PLAGIARISM CHECK, HANDLING EDITOR REVIEW, PEER REVIEW, LANGUAGE AND EDITING CHECK. If a manuscript fails to pass the Initial Screening stage after being reviewed twice, it is returned to the author and not reconsidered for the same publication period. Manuscripts that pass the Initial Screening stage are subjected to the evaluation process, which follows the principle of double-blind peer review involving at least two referees. MANUSCRIPTS THAT RECEIVE POSITIVE EVALUATIONS AND WHOSE SIMILARITY REPORTS, IF REQUESTED, ARE DEEMED APPROPRIATE ARE ACCEPTED AND PROCEED TO THE PUBLICATION PROCESS FOR INCLUSION IN THE RELEVANT ISSUE OF THE JOURNAL. AT THIS STAGE, IF THE AUTHOR WISHES, AN ACCEPTANCE LETTER CAN BE SENT.

Note: In each issue of our journal, one-third of the content is allocated, without considering authorship, to faculty members of Ordu University and our editorial team, provided they submit one article per year.
