Peer Review Proces

Peer Review Proces

JCoos: Journal of Community Outreach in Science & Society applies a double-blind peer-review policy. All editorial decisions and updates are communicated to authors.

Policy Statement
All submissions undergo an Initial Check by the Editorial Board to assess focus–scope fit, completeness, and basic formatting. Manuscripts that pass this check are screened for plagiarism before external review. The journal uses a double-blind process in which at least two independent reviewers evaluate each manuscript; additional reviewers may be invited at the editor’s discretion. Reviewer comments are sent anonymously to authors for necessary actions and responses. Based on reviewer recommendations, editors may issue Accept, Minor Revisions, Major Revisions, or Reject decisions. The Editor-in-Chief retains the final decision on publication.
