Author Guidelines

Peer-review Policy

JIDM operates a single-blind peer-review system, where the reviewers are aware of the names and affiliations of the authors, but the reviewer reports provided to authors are anonymous Publication of research articles by JIDM is dependent primarily on their scientific validity and coherence as judged by our external expert editors and/or peer reviewers, who will also assess whether the writing is comprehensible and whether the work represents a useful contribution to the field.

Submitted manuscripts will generally be reviewed by three experts who will be asked to evaluate whether the manuscript is scientifically sound and coherent and to ensure that the work is original and sufficiently clear for publication. Reviewers will also be asked to indicate how interesting and significant the research is. The Editors will make a decision based on these reports and, when necessary, will consult with the members of the Editorial Board.
