The similarity rate (excluding references) in the submitted articles must be below 25%. Manuscripts with excessive spelling mistakes and high similarity will be rejected without being evaluated.
The articles that are pre-evaluated by our Editor and Editorial Board will enter the referee evaluation process.
Manuscripts that pass the initial evaluation are sent to at least two referees who are experts in the relevant field. After a rigorous peer-review, a decision will be made to request accept or reject the article. In case a correction is requested from the author, the correction must be made and delivered to our journal “within the period to be determined by the editorial office”. Otherwise, it is accepted that the authors have withdrawn the article.
Statements or opinions expressed in published articles belong to the authors. Editors, editorial board and publisher do not accept any responsibility for these articles.

Authors who submit articles for publication to the journal are deemed to have known and accepted the above clauses. Our journal is published twice a year, in December and June.
