Reviewer Guideline

Ethical Responsibilities of Referees
The evaluation of all studies by "Double Blind Review" directly affects the quality of the publication. This process provides confidence through objective and independent evaluation of the publication. In our journal, the evaluation process is carried out with the principle of double blind refereeing. Reviewers cannot communicate directly with the authors, and evaluations and comments are communicated through the journal management system. In this process, reviewer comments on the evaluation forms and full texts are communicated to the author(s) through the editor. In this context, referees who evaluate studies for our journal are expected to have the following ethical responsibilities:
- Accept to evaluate only studies related to their field of expertise.
- They should evaluate with impartiality and confidentiality.
- If they think that they are faced with a conflict of interest during the evaluation process, they should refuse to review the study and inform the journal editor.
- In accordance with the principle of confidentiality, they should destroy the studies they have reviewed after the evaluation process. They can only use the final versions of the studies they have reviewed only after publication.
- Evaluate objectively only with regard to the content of the study. They should not allow nationality, gender, religious beliefs, political beliefs and commercial concerns to influence the evaluation.
- Conduct the evaluation in a constructive and courteous manner. They should not make derogatory personal comments containing hostility, slander and insult.
- They should carry out the work they accept for evaluation on time and with the above ethical responsibilities.
