Peer Review Process

TurkBilim is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal. Every paper submitted to the journal is assigned at least two independent peer reviewers. The review model adopted by TurkBilim is the Double Blind method. The decision for publication, amendment, or rejection is based upon the reports/recommendations of the Reviewers.  After being reviewed, there will be four kinds of editor decision based on reviewers’ recommendation:

Accept Submission: The submission will be accepted without revisions.
Revisions Required: The submission will be accepted after minor changes have been made.
Resubmit for Review: The submission needs to be re-worked, but with significant changes, may be accepted. It will require a second round of review, however.
Decline Submission: The submission will not be published in the journal.
