Scope

 JASA is published "online" twice a year, in “July” and “December”.

 The JASA uses a double-blind, peer-reviewed process. All articles are evaluated by internal reviewers (Editors and Editorial Board Members) for preliminary review and external reviewers (international editorial advisory board and experts in the field) for content.

 JASA's editorial policy is based on quality and transparency.

 JASA has strongly adopted the Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing set by DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals).

 All studies published in the JASA comply with the “YÖK Scientific Research and Publication Ethics Directive” provisions and the relevant legislation and ethical principles issued by the Publication Ethics Committee (COPE). Ethics Committee Permission is mandatory for articles to be published in the journal, for publications starting in 2020. https://dergipark.org.tr/tr/pub/mbud/policy and https://publicationethics.org/node/39386

 JASA is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non-Commercial-Share-Alike 4.0 International License.

 The Turnitin Similarity rate is less than 18% in JASA.

 A “DOI number” is assigned for each article published in the JASA

 JASA publishes "original research articles" written in English on theoretical and practical topics related to spatial planning and design, conservation, restoration, management, and economic aspects within the scope of Architectural Sciences. In addition, if deemed appropriate by the JASA Editor, a limited number of invited review articles, letters to the editor, project competition criticism, etc. can be published.

 Subjects and research studies of interdisciplinary architectural sciences (e.g., building architecture, landscape architecture, city and regional planning, interior architecture, industrial product design, fine arts, civil engineering, etc.) have been primarily published in JASA.

 In addition, issues related to other multidisciplinary fields (e.g., forest engineering, agricultural engineering, biology, geography, mining engineering, sociology, archaeology, nature protection, tourism, recreation, cultural heritage, environment, business administration, etc.) are also published.

 If the Editorial Board deems it appropriate, a 'Special Issue' may be published once a year on the symposium, congress, workshop, and special-themed topics. The same research article publication processes and policies apply to articles in Special Issues. A Guest Editor is not appointed for the publication process of special issues. The process is managed by the JASA Editorial Board.
