Peer Review Process

The Journal of Electrical Engineering and Informatics (JEEI) applies a double-blind peer review process to ensure the quality, originality, and scientific integrity of all manuscripts submitted to the journal.

Review Process

  1. Initial Screening
    The Editor-in-Chief or Managing Editor conducts an initial evaluation to assess the manuscript’s suitability in terms of scope, originality, completeness, and compliance with the author guidelines. Manuscripts that do not meet the journal’s requirements may be rejected without external review (desk rejection).

  2. Plagiarism Check
    Manuscripts that pass the initial screening are checked for plagiarism using plagiarism detection software. Manuscripts with a similarity index exceeding the acceptable threshold will be returned to the authors or rejected.

  3. Reviewer Assignment
    Each manuscript is assigned to at least two independent reviewers who have expertise relevant to the manuscript’s subject area. Reviewers are selected from different institutions to ensure objectivity.

  4. Peer Review
    Reviewers evaluate the manuscript based on originality, methodology, significance, clarity, and relevance to the journal’s scope. The review is conducted anonymously to maintain a double-blind process.

  5. Editorial Decision
    Based on the reviewers’ comments and recommendations, the editorial team makes one of the following decisions:

    • Accept

    • Minor Revision

    • Major Revision

    • Reject

  6. Revision Process
    Authors are required to revise their manuscripts in accordance with the reviewers’ comments and submit a revised version within the specified time frame.

  7. Final Decision
    The Editor-in-Chief makes the final decision regarding the acceptance of the manuscript for publication.

Review Time

The average review time for submitted manuscripts is approximately 4–6 weeks, depending on the availability of reviewers and the quality of the submitted manuscript.

Confidentiality

All manuscripts and review reports are treated as confidential documents. Reviewers are required to maintain the confidentiality of the manuscripts and not to use the information for personal advantage.
