Peer Review Policy

The Cosmic Journal of Arts and Humanities uses a double-blind peer review process to ensure the quality and originality of published manuscripts. All manuscripts submitted to the journal are reviewed by two independent experts, who are selected based on their expertise in the relevant field.

Peer Review Process

The peer review process begins with the submission of a manuscript to the journal. The manuscript is then assigned to a handling editor, who is responsible for overseeing the peer review process. The handling editor selects two reviewers based on their expertise in the relevant field. The reviewers are provided with a copy of the manuscript and asked to provide their feedback on the following criteria:

• Originality
• Quality of research
• Clarity of writing
• Significance of contribution

The reviewers provide their feedback to the handling editor, who then makes a decision based on the reviewer reports. The handling editor may accept the manuscript for publication, reject it, or request revisions. If revisions are requested, the author(s) are given the opportunity to revise their manuscript and resubmit it for review.

Double-Blind Review

The Cosmic Journal of Arts and Humanities uses a double-blind peer review process, which means that the reviewers do not know the identity of the author(s) and the author(s) do not know the identity of the reviewers. This helps to ensure that the peer review process is fair and objective.

Confidentiality

All reviewers are required to keep the identity of the author(s) confidential and to refrain from sharing the manuscript with anyone else. The journal also takes steps to protect the confidentiality of the peer review process.

Timeline

The peer review process typically takes 4-6 weeks to complete. However, the timeline may vary depending on the availability of reviewers and the complexity of the manuscript.

• Quality of research: Is the research well-designed and executed?
• Clarity of writing: Is the manuscript well-written and easy to understand?
• Significance of contribution: Is the manuscript significant and will it be of interest to readers of the journal?

Reviewing Process

Reviewers are asked to provide a detailed and constructive review of the manuscript. The review should include a summary of the manuscript, a discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of the manuscript, and specific recommendations for revision.

Decision-Making

The handling editor makes a decision based on the reviewer reports. The handling editor may accept the manuscript for publication, reject it, or request revisions. If revisions are requested, the author(s) are given the opportunity to revise their manuscript and resubmit it for review.
