Double-Blind Peer Review
The review process is an important aspect of the publication process of an article. It helps an editor in making decision on an article and also enables the author to improve the manuscript. AJES operates a double blind review process.
Author(s) identity is removed from the manuscript and shielded from the reviewers during the review process. The reviewer is left with only the manuscript without any information that might enable him/her uncovers the identity of the author(s). Information removed includes the author(s) name, address/affiliation, country, phone/fax and email. Any information in the Acknowledgement and Declaration of Conflict of Interest that may lead to the uncovering of the identity of the author is also removed from the manuscript prior to sending it to reviewers.
Manuscripts are assigned to members of the editorial board of the journal or other qualified reviewers. Reviewers make one of the following recommendations:
- Accepted as it is.
- Requires Minor Corrections.
- Requires Major Revision.
- Rejected.
The review reports are sent to the authors. However, reviewers’ identity is removed from the review reports. The author(s) is left with only the review reports/recommendation without any information that might enable him/her uncovers the identity of the reviewers. A minimum of two review reports are required per manuscript.
On receipt of the author(s) revised manuscript, the original manuscript, the revised manuscript and the review reports are sent to the editor. The editor makes one of the following decisions:
- Accept
- The Manuscript Requires Improvement
- Reject
Only an editor has the authority to “Accept” or “Reject” a manuscript. If a manuscript is “Accepted”, the manuscript is processed for publication. If a manuscript is rejected, the authors are informed of the decision and no further processing is done on the manuscript.
Submission, Novelty, and Copyright
Manuscripts are accepted for publication subject to the understanding that AJES has the right of first publication. Submission of a manuscript to AJES is taken to indicate the author’s commitment to publish in this Publication. No paper known to be under consideration by another journal will be reviewed by AJES. In addition, AJES is not a suitable vehicle for materials published elsewhere, in whole or in part. Authors may be asked to make a statement of novelty regarding their AJES submission and other published work. Upon publication, all rights, including subsidiary rights, are owned by AJES. The author retains the right to use his or her article without charge in any book of which he or she is the author or editor after it has appeared in the journal and after obtaining permission.
