Reviewers Guideline

Before accepting a review, ensure the article matches your expertise, that you have no conflicts of interest, and that you have enough time to complete it. Once accepted, treat the manuscript and your review as confidential, and provide feedback that is clear, constructive, and respectful. A good review includes a brief summary to show understanding, overall impressions on novelty and contribution, and detailed comments on aspects such as title, abstract, introduction, methods, results, discussion, conclusion, references, and language. Suggestions for additional citations must be scientifically justified, not personal. Reviewers should also inform the editor of any suspected plagiarism, fraud, or ethical concerns. The editor will make the final decision based on reviewers’ recommendations and may seek further opinions if needed. Reviewers are encouraged to claim their review history through the Web of Science Researcher Profiles via the automated “Send your review to Publons” feature supported by Seraung: International Journal of Social Sciences and Humanities.
