Transparent Review Process: In alignment with COPE Ethical Guidelines for Peer Reviewers
In light of promoting transparency, accountability, and fostering a more open scientific discourse, we have adopted a transparent review process. This approach ensures that peer review reports are openly published alongside the article, granting readers access to reviewers’ comments and feedback. This initiative aims to enhance understanding of the research evaluation process and uphold ethical standards in scholarly publishing.
IDENTIFIABILITY – While reviewer comments are published, reviewers' identities will remain confidential unless they explicitly request to be named. This balance supports transparency while respecting reviewer privacy.
