Reviewing and Indexing
Reviewing
Each manuscript is reviewed by two anonymous, independent reviewers.
The main evaluation criteria are: quality, impact, originality,
innovativeness and internationally competitive potential.
Reviewers guarantee that the published manuscripts are of high
quality and that the information they contain is correct and
up-to-date.
Reviewers recommend that the submitted manuscript is published,
rejected or sent back for revision.
The Board of Editors deals with manuscripts only after they have
been reviewed.
Editors guarantee that reviewing is complete and the Publisher’s
rules are observed.
Indexing
All International Scientific Publications journals are indexed by
EBSCO Publishing (www.ebscohost.com).
Reviewing: language, formatting, citation and references
Each
manuscript is reviewed by a language editor with regards to:
- correct
language use;
-
conformity with the formatting requirements;
-
conformity with the required citing and referencing style.
Formatting.
All manuscripts have to be formatted according to the Publisher’s
requirements. Please refer to ScienceBg Style for guidance. You can
ask the Publisher to email you the formatting requirements in a
separate file or view them on the journal web site.
References.
All manuscripts have to use the citing and referencing style adopted
in the journals. Please refer to the Harvard Style for guidance. You
can ask the Publisher to email you a copy of the Harvard Style
guidelines in a separate file or view them on the journal web site.
Spelling and punctuation.
Authors can use either the US or UK variety of English spelling and
punctuation. The chosen variety has to be used consistently
throughout the manuscript. It is unacceptable to mix different
styles, spelling and punctuation.
Revision.
When advised by the language editor, the Publisher has the right to
send back manuscripts to their authors for correction. The Publisher
may also reject manuscripts for publication if the suggested
corrections are not implemented.
