Peer Review Process
SUJSB adheres to rigorous procedures for evaluating the manuscripts it receives. Central to this process is the implementation of a double-blind peer review for every research publication. In this review system, both reviewers and authors remain anonymized to ensure impartiality and fairness, preventing any bias stemming from recognition or personal connections.
Once feedback is received from at least two reviewers, the managing editor notifies the authors, prompting them to make the necessary revisions. The Editorial Team then evaluates how well the authors have incorporated the feedback into the revised manuscripts. If the revisions are deemed unsatisfactory, the authors are asked to make further changes and resubmit their work until all reviewers are satisfied. The Editor-in-Chief makes the final decision.
Publication
The time from manuscript submission to acceptance for publication in SUJSB typically ranges from 8 to 12 weeks. However, this timeframe can vary based on factors such as the author's responsiveness, reviewer availability, and the number of review rounds required. Accepted papers usually undergo an average of two revisions. Authors are notified when the digital versions of their approved papers are published on the journal's website. Each edition of SUJSB is initially released online and is freely accessible to all.
