1. Editorial Board: The Editorial Board is the supreme advisory and supervisory body that determines the scientific quality, ethical standards, and academic strategies of the journal.

  • Members are selected from among academics holding a doctoral degree in disciplines relevant to the scope of the journal, taking into account institutional diversity and distribution of expertise.
  • The development of the journal's publication policy and the maintenance of ethical standards are the responsibility of the Editorial Board.
  • It has the authority to issue ‘Corrections’ for minor errors in published works and ‘Retractions’ for violations that undermine scientific validity. The COPE guidelines are followed in these processes.

  • The Board meets at least twice a year to evaluate the journal's performance.

2. Editorial Team: This is the operational team responsible for the preliminary review, evaluation and preparation of articles for publication. 

  • Editor-in-Chief and Editor: Manages the journal's academic vision. Conducts preliminary reviews of articles (ethics and scope), assigns work to relevant Field Editors, and gives final approval for publication of the issue's content.
  • Copy Editor: Prepares the plagiarism report for articles and checks their compliance with writing rules. Submissions that do not comply with the template, writing rules or ethical standards are returned to the author for correction before being accepted into the process.
  • Field Editors: Assign independent referees for articles within their area of expertise. Make the final decision on the article (Accept, Revise or Reject) based entirely on the referee reports; they cannot make a decision that contradicts the reports. In case of disagreement, the matter is referred to a third referee.
  • Publication Editor: Checks the grammar and academic style of accepted articles; prepares the work for typesetting according to the journal's visual template and processes the DOI information.
  • Proofreader: Reviews the final layout of the work to correct any typographical or typesetting errors and obtains final approval from the author prior to printing.
