Review Team
Members
Roles and Responsibilities
To enhance the manuscript quality, NJMRA uses double-blind review (i.e. both the reviewer and author identities are concealed from the reviewers, and vice versa, throughout the review process). The panel of reviewers comprises of experienced academicians associated with varied national and international Institutes of repute with doctorates in varied disciplines. The reviewer’s responsibility is to check whether the study possesses novelty and presents the results of original research. It is required that the reported results are not published elsewhere. To enhance the manuscript quality, the manuscript should meet the publication standards, and for the possible significance of the work concerning the present and hereafter. The Reviewer’s assignments during the peer review process include-
- Present your perspective regarding the quality of the article and provide the area of the article to be upgraded.
- Outline the strengths and weaknesses of the manuscript.
- Put forth your valuable suggestions to the author on how to improve the article.
- If the article is worthy of rejection in your horizon, please explain the grounds on which the conclusion is posed.
- Reviewers are requested to avoid any personalized statements that may be considered biased.
- The reviewers need to maintain confidentiality throughout the peer review process.
- Reviewers are not allowed to make use of any confidential information from the paper before publication.
- Even after publication, reviewers are allowed to use only the published data but not the content that they have gained from previous drafts during the peer review process.
- Information apart from the published content can be used only after acquiring permission from the author.
- Reviewers are requested to perform the peer review with ensured uniformity and impartiality. Reviewers need to complete the peer review analysis within the stipulated period.
