The peer-review process is summarized as follows:

1. After a manuscript is submitted to the journal, an Editor is assigned to process it.

2. Editor produces a similarity report of the submission, which excludes Sources less than 1% and Bibliography, on iThenticate and uploads this report to the system for Reviewers to consider the report during the review.
a. The manuscript is rejected if the similarity rate (SR) is greater than 50%.
b. If 40% < SR < 50%, Editor checks the manuscript for plagiarism and whether it complies with the JNRS’s style guide and the required sections Abstract, Introduction, and Conclusion are included in the paper. Editor then requests Author to resubmit it as SR reduced to 40% or less. If either or both of the above cases exist(s), then Author is required to reformat the paper following the style guide and/or to include the missing section(s).
c. If SR ≤ 40%, Editor checks the manuscript for plagiarism and whether it complies with the JNRS’s style guide and the required sections Abstract, Introduction, and Conclusion are included in the paper. If Editor detects a likely case of plagiarism or realizes incongruence with the style guide and/or an absent/incomplete section, then Author is required to revise the manuscript before resubmission.

3. If required, Editor corresponds with Author until the article is ready for review.
If Author does not accept to resubmit the manuscript, the manuscript is rejected.
If Author has failed to duly satisfy the listed requests, the manuscript is rejected.

4. If Editor assigns an Area Editor,

c. When the Minor Revision is completed, Area Editor reviews the revised paper and the accompanying response letter. Area Editor then notifies Editor of the decision.
d. When the Major Revision is completed, Area Editor forwards the revised paper and the accompanying response letter to Reviewers. Area Editor notifies Editor of the decision made based on the reviewers’ comments.

If Editor does not assign an Area Editor,
