Peer Review Policy

The Altiora applies the following rigorous peer review policy to maintain the highest academic standards.

1

The submitted manuscript will be reviewed and checked for plagiarism by the Editor. It will be examined and checked for compatibility with the scope of the journal and conformity with the journal template. During this stage, the editor communicates with the author(s) and decides whether the work is eligible for review or not.

2

Manuscripts that have passed the initial step will be sent to two reviewers to review the content using the double-blind review method. This means both the reviewer and author identities are concealed from each other throughout the review process. Referees are assigned based on their area of expertise.

3

The review process will evaluate the manuscript considering its novelty, objectivity, methods, scientific impact, conclusions, and references.

4

Reviewers will suggest improvements and provide recommendations to either accept, accept with changes, or reject the articles to the editor.

5

The editor will carefully evaluate whether the paper completely fits the Journal’s publication requirements after considering the reviewer comments.

6

The editor’s decision is final about the acceptance or rejection of the submitted manuscript. The Editor reserves the right to make a final decision on publication as well as the right to make alterations.

Turnaround & Review Time

The submitted manuscript is assigned to a reviewer within seven days of its submission. Peer review of the submitted article is generally completed within two weeks.

Overall, 15-30 days are required to complete the entire peer review process, after which the decision of acceptance, rejection, or comments is conveyed to the authors. In case the peer review takes more than 30 days, authors should compulsorily enquire about the status of their research article by email.

* The accepted article is published in the issue for which the author has submitted it.
