Guidelines for Reviewers
IJHMS ensures that an effective peer review process is in place when authors opt to entrust IJHMS with their manuscripts. We make a decent attempt to build up and support peer-review integrity on our journal and a crucial piece of this implies guaranteeing that reviewers have the suitable assets to do their work as productively and adequately as could reasonably be expected.
Potential reviewers ought to give personal and professional information that is exact and a reasonable portrayal of their mastery, including irrefutable and precise contact data.
Following is the step-wise guide for reviewers while composing review reports:
1. Search the journal
Visit the journal home page to get an idea of the material our journal deals in, its scope, and style. This will enable you to choose whether the paper you’re looking into is appropriate for the journal or not.
Consider the Instructions for Authors to check if the paper meets the submission criteria of the journal (for example length, scope, and presentation).
2. Write your review report
The three principle factors you ought to give guidance on are:
- The innovation, introduction, and significance of the manuscript’s topic to the readership of the journal.
- The exactness of the methodology.
- Contribution to the body of knowledge and practice.
Here are some questions to consider when reading the manuscript:
- Is the submission unique?
- Is the paper fit according to the scope of the journal as recommended in the aims and objectives?
- Would the paper hold any importance with the international readership of the journal?
- Does the paper help to extend or further research in this branch of knowledge?
- Does it essentially expand (the author’s) past work?
- Do you feel that the importance and potential effect of a paper are high or low?
- Has the paper been done properly? Does it have an abstract or summary of the work undertaken as well as a conclusion?
- Are the methodology and analysis given in the manuscript both precise and appropriately done?
- Are all relevant accompanying data, citations, or references delivered by the author?
- Does it need shortening and changed to another structure?
- Would you prescribe that the author reevaluate the paper for an alternate journal?
- Is the submission in Standard English to help the comprehension of the reader?
3. Provide detailed comments
- These ought to be appropriate for sending to the author. Utilize these remarks to make helpful recommendations, look for an explanation on any indistinct focuses, and request further elaboration.
- Make proposals on how the author can improve clearness, brevity, and the nature of presentation.
- Confirm whether you feel the subject of the paper is adequately fascinating to legitimize its length. In the event that you suggest shortening, show explicit zones where you believe it’s required.
- It’s not the reviewer’s job to edit the paper for English, yet it is useful in the event that you mark the errors in English where the technical meaning is hazy.
- A referee may differ with the auhtor’s suppositions, however ought to enable them to stand, if their evidence backs it up.
- Remember that authors will invite positive input just as valuable analysis.
Being critical while staying sensitive to the author isn’t in every case simple. Remarks ought to be painstakingly worded so the author comprehends what moves they have to make to improve their paper. Refrain from summed up or ambiguous explanations just like any negative remarks which aren’t important or useful. Additionally, try to avoid any sexist comments or utilization of biased language.
4. Make a recommendation
When you’ve perused the paper and have evaluated its quality, you have to make a suggestion to the editor about publication. The particular decision types utilized by a journal will differ, yet the key choices are:
- Accept with routine editing. The paper is reasonable for publication in its present structure.
- Minor revision. The paper will be prepared for publication after light modifications. List the corrections you would prescribe the author makes.
- Major revision. The paper needs significant changes, for example, extended data analysis, augmenting of the literature review, or revamping segments of the content.
- Reject. The paper isn’t reasonable for publication with this journal, or the amendments are unreasonably crucial for the submission to keep being considered in its present structure.
Revisions
At the point when writers make modifications to their article, they’re solicited to present a rundown from changes and any remarks for the reviewers. The reexamined version is generally sent back to the original reviewer if possible. The reviewer is then approached to affirm whether the corrections are satisfactory.
What are the ethical guidelines for peer reviewers?
All peer reviewers must pursue these ethical guidelines for IJHMS articles in review:
- Reviewers must give unprejudiced thought to every original manuscript submitted. They should pass judgment on each of its benefits, regardless of race, religion, nationality, sex, status, or institutional alliance of the author(s).
- Reviewers must proclaim any conflict of interest before consenting to review a manuscript. This incorporates any association with the author that may affect their review.
- Reviewers must keep the peer-review process classified. They should not share data or correspondence about a manuscript with anybody outside of the peer-review process.
- Reviewers ought to give a helpful, thorough, evidenced, and properly considerable peer-review report.
- Reviewers must abstain from making articulations in their report which may be understood as reprimanding any individual’s reputation.
- Reviewers should try to present their report and proposal on schedule. They ought to illuminate the editor if this is not possible.
- Reviewers should call to the journal editor’s consideration any critical likeness between the paper under consideration and any published paper or submitted original copies of which they know.
