Peer Review Process
All manuscripts submitted to the Journal of Al-Akbar Pearl of Education (JMPA) will undergo a single-blind peer review process. In this process:
-
Each manuscript is initially evaluated by the editor to ensure it meets the journal’s scope and formatting guidelines.
-
Manuscripts that pass the initial screening will be sent to at least two reviewers who are experts in the relevant field.
-
The identities of the reviewers are kept anonymous to the authors (single-blind), but the reviewers are aware of the authors' identity.
-
Reviewers will evaluate the manuscript based on originality, methodology, relevance, clarity, and contribution to the field.
-
The editorial decision (accept, minor revision, major revision, or reject) will be based on the reviewers’ recommendations.
-
Authors will receive feedback and may be required to revise the manuscript before a final decision is made.
The review process takes approximately 4–8 weeks, depending on the availability of reviewers.
