Peer Review Process

All submissions to JoLSIC undergo a double-blind peer review process. Neither authors nor reviewers are informed of each other’s identities.

Each manuscript is initially screened by the editorial team for relevance to the journal’s scope and compliance with submission guidelines. Suitable manuscripts are then sent to at least two independent reviewers with expertise in the relevant field.

Reviewers evaluate manuscripts based on originality, theoretical grounding, methodological rigor, analytical depth, clarity of argumentation, and contribution to knowledge.

The editorial decision may result in:

• Accept without revision

• Minor revision

• Major revision

• Reject

The average review process is approximately 4–8 weeks.
