Peer Review Guidelines

In academic publishing, peer review serves as an essential quality control mechanism to ensure that published work is credible, valid, and relevant. When a researcher submits a manuscript to a peer-reviewed journal like BJSST, the paper undergoes rigorous evaluation by experts in the same field. Reviewers, often anonymous, scrutinize the paper for accuracy, originality, and significance.

1. Manuscript submission by researcher.
2. Initial assessment by the editorial team to ensure basic criteria are met.
3. If approved, the manuscript is forwarded to experts/peers for detailed review.
4. In-depth review and analysis, followed by feedback to the author.
5. Necessary revisions are made by the author.
6. Paper acceptance and publication.

Submitting a manuscript to a peer-reviewed journal is a critical step for establishing the credibility and academic value of research. Peer-reviewed journals are regarded as reliable and authoritative sources within the scholarly community, and publication in such outlets signifies a high standard of quality. This recognition enhances the professional reputation of authors and supports their academic advancement.

The peer review process plays an essential role in improving the quality and rigor of submitted work. Expert reviewers help identify methodological gaps, clarify arguments, and strengthen the overall presentation of the research, leading to a more robust and credible final publication. Moreover, articles published in peer-reviewed journals typically achieve broader visibility and greater impact worldwide.
