Peer-Review Process

Articles can be submitted to the SAUHSD by registering in the "Article Management System" on https://dergipark.org.tr/en/pub/jobs web. Articles sent by e-mail will not be taken into consideration.

Pre-Review and Plagiarism Checking

The journal's compliance with the writing rules is examined, and a similarity check is made to prevent plagiarism. Similarity software is used in the checking process. The overall similarity rate should be less than 20%, If the similarity rate is more than 20%, the study is either rejected or sent back to the author to reduce the similarity rate. The pre-review is completed within a maximum of 5 days.

Editor Review
After the study passes the stages of pre-review and similarity checking, it is reviewed by the editor or assoc. editors in terms of subject, scope, language use, and academic competence. This review is completed within a maximum of 5 days.

Peer Review Process (Double-Blind Peer Review)
Studies that pass the pre-review and editorial review undergo a confidential double-blind peer review process. Within the double-blind strategy, the identity of the peer reviewer is concealed from the author submitting publications to the journal. Similarly, the peer reviewers do not know who wrote the article they are reviewing. In other words, the peer review process is conducted by keeping both authors and peer reviewers anonymous to each other. Articles are sent to at least two referees for evaluation. The reports are also stored in the Article Management System. For detailed information please click here.

Author's Revision
Authors take into account the feedback, criticisms, and recommendations of the reviewer and the Editorial Board. In case of any disagreement, they have the right to appeal with their justifications. Authors edit the article as per the reports and upload the final version of the article to the system.

Turkish Language Checks
Studies that pass the peer-review process are examined by the Turkish Language Editor, and if necessary, corrections are requested from the author. The checking process is completed within a maximum of 15 days.
