Review Process

1. Review Process of the Journal

Double-Blind Peer Review

It is a process of reviewing the research work of our peer researchers and providing an unbiased opinion to assess, evaluate, and improve the research quality. In addition, independent researchers study the research work from various angles, including significance, validity, originality, and scope, to help the journal's editorial board decide to accept or reject a research paper for publication. There are different types of peer-reviewing. The commonly used are Blind Peer Review and Double-Blind Peer Review. The Wrights follows the process of Double-Blind Peer Review. In this process, the authors do not know the reviewer, and the reviewer does not know the authors whose work is reviewed. This provides transparency, unbiasedness, and fairness.
