Peer Review
EBNR published by EEP employed a double-blind peer review process for all submissions preceded by editorial review and followed by an editorial prefinal copy revision for the reviewers' comment to warrant that all comments are completed. All manuscripts are peer-reviewed following the procedure outlined below. The editor initially evaluates all manuscripts. Manuscripts that are rejected at this point are either insufficiently original, contain significant scientific errors, have weak grammar, or English language, or fall beyond the journal's aims and scope. Those that meet the minimum requirements are usually sent to at least two experts for evaluation. Manuscripts authored by editors or editorial board members are also subject to a double-blind peer review like all manuscripts. The journal employs double-blind reviewing, where both the referee and author remain anonymous throughout the process. Referees are matched to the paper according to their expertise, and our database is constantly being updated. Referees are asked to assess whether the manuscript is original, methodologically sound, and adheres to relevant ethical guidelines, findings are presented and interpreted, and endorsed the assumptions, previous related work is correctly referenced. Language correction is not part of the peer-review process, but the journal provides proofreading services for free for all the manuscripts accepted for publication. The time required for the review process is dependent on the response of the referees. It usually takes one to two months. Should the referee's reports contradict one another or a report is unnecessarily delayed, a further expert opinion will be sought. In case of manuscript rejection, the editor's decision will be sent to the author with reasons of rejection. The recommendations made by the referees, which usually includes verbatim comments by the referees are recorded in a journal reviewing checklist that include all the manuscript sections. Revised manuscripts might be returned to the initial referees, who may request another manuscript revision. A final revision of the manuscript will be done by a journal editor to secure that all the modifications recommended has been done. Referees advise the editor, who is responsible for the final decision, to accept or reject the article.
