II. REVIEW PROCESS

After initial review by the editorial office suitable manuscripts will undergo a process of double-anonymous peer review. Decisions thereafter to accept or reject papers are based on the recommendations received during peer review . The evaluation process generally takes eight to ten weeks. Out of respect for peer reviewers, the editors do not consider articles already under consideration by other journals.
