Peer Review Process
JITP journal conducts double-blind peer review, meaning that the identity of the author and that of the reviewer are both kept anonymous, hence an objective evaluation of the paper.
Before external review, editors check that a manuscript:
- In line with the goals and scope of JITP
- Demonstrates originality and relevance
- Complies with our submission guidelines
- Fulfills accepted standards of language and presentation
- Abides by ethics in research and publishing
Manuscripts which do not meet this standard are sent back for revisions or rejected before being forwarded to external reviewers – better to let you know early on than waste your time.
Possible Outcomes
| Decision | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Accept without revision | Ready for production as-is |
| Accept with minor revisions | Small fixes needed, no further review round |
| Major revisions required | Substantial rework needed; may go through another review round |
| Resubmission for further review | Treated as a fresh submission after significant changes |
| Reject | Doesn't move forward |
Conflicts of interest will always be disclosed and reviewed by independent reviewers. You will receive comments from the reviewers along with the editorial decision, where applicable.
