Review Process

JKTSS PUO adheres to a double-blind peer review process to ensure academic integrity and high-quality scholarly contributions.

• All submitted manuscripts are first reviewed by the editorial board for relevance, structure, and compliance with journal guidelines.

• Suitable manuscripts are then sent to one or more subject-matter experts for double-blind peer review, where both authors and reviewers remain anonymous to each other.

• Reviewers will evaluate the manuscript based on originality, significance, methodology, clarity, and relevance.

Following the review, the editor will notify authors of one of the following decisions:

• Accepted for publication as is

• Accepted with minor revisions

• Accepted with major revisions

• Rejected

Reviewer comments will be forwarded to the authors to guide manuscript revision. When submitting a revised version, authors must include a detailed response to each comment, explaining the changes made or justifying why certain suggestions were not implemented.

The editorial board is committed to a fair, transparent, and timely review process. While we aim to complete initial reviews within two weeks, maintaining the quality and rigor of the process remains our highest priority.
