3. Guidelines for the author:

- Authors are invited to read these recommendations and apply them carefully.
- The editor-in-chief has the right to return the articles that do not respect these rules.4. Article Evaluation Procedures:

In the first step, the article is examined anonymously (after deleting the name (s) of the author(s)) at the level of the internal secretariat of the Journal, that meets regularly to check the authors' compliance with the publication rules, and the appropriateness of their articles to the Journal's field of specialty before sending them to the editors. If the article does not receive a positive response from the editors, it will be returned to the author with comments and suggestions. The author can re-submit it after taking into account the recommendations made.

In the second step, if the article complies with the rules of publication and its relevance to the subject, the article will be eligible for the evaluation process (correct writing style, correctness of the problem, the hypothesis of research, an explicit methodology for addressing the problem, etc.). The anonymous article is then double blind peer reviewed by the editors, and each one of them will send the article to two reviewers under his network, according to a unified evaluation network they must fill out. The co-editor can also review the article himself if s/he wants to do this. The secretariat of the Journal maintains liaison and coordination between the authors and the associated editors.

When the article receives a positive evaluation and a negative one, it will be presented again to a third evaluator from within or outside the country; the article’s evaluation is determined by the final outcome of reviewing. If the article is accepted after modification, the author has to make the required corrections in a period of time that does not exceed one month.

If the article is accepted, the material submitted for publication should be attached to the "Copyright Transfer", which can be downloaded from the Journal space on the platform. This acknowledgment is included in a compressed file under the "Author's Instructions" Section.

5. Article Evaluation Period:

The article is evaluated in a minimum of 45 days, but the evaluation can take a longer period of two to three months on average.
