Review Process
SPRJB’s Reviewer policy
This is an objective based process and is carried out on all reputable scientific journals globally. Our referees therefore play a vital role in maintaining the high standards of journal articles and all manuscripts are peer reviewed following our procedure below.
Initial Evaluation
Editors evaluates all manuscripts. It is rare, but it is entirely feasible for an exceptional manuscript to be accepted at this stage. Those that meet the minimum criteria are passed on to other experts(2 or more) for review. Authors of manuscripts rejected at this stage will be informed by email.
Type of Peer Review
SPRJB employs single blind review, where the reviewer remains anonymous throughout the process/ double blind reviewing, where both the reviewer and author remain anonymous throughout the process/open reviewing were both the reviewer and author are known to one another.
How the reviewer is selected
Reviewers are matched to the paper according to their expertise and field of study.
Review Reports
Reviewers are asked to evaluate whether the manuscript :
- Is original
- Is practically sound
- Follows appropriate ethical guidelines
- Has results which are clearly presented and support the conclusions
