Review Guidelines

PEER REVIEW SYSTEM

PGJSRT strictly observes the double-blind peer review process to ensure the anonymity of the reviewer and the author/s to avoid impartiality during the review process. The standard Peer Review Evaluation Form and the article should be sent by the PGJSRT technical team to the respective peer reviewer who is considered expert in the field for review.

It is the responsibility of the peer reviewer to provide substantial comments and suggestions for the improvement of the paper to maintain the quality of the research article to be published by the PGJSRT. The reviewer shall take the evaluation of the general content in terms of the academic significance of the research paper, its contribution to the community, technical novelty, quality of information, and language usage. In terms of specific content, the reviewer provides an evaluation in terms of the accuracy and unity of information in the abstract, the relevance of introduction, literature, and studies to the topic as well as the coherence of the objectives; preciseness of methods used, completeness of the result and discussion, and the comprehensiveness of the conclusion and the thoroughness of the reference list. The research article sent to a peer review who is considered an expert in the field should decide either to publish without revision, accept after revision, or reject. If one of them decides to reject the paper and the other one decides to accept, this is the only time the paper should undergo another review and should be sent to the third reviewer.
