Peer Review Process
IJIBS uses Plagiarism Detection Software – Turnitin® to screen for plagiarism before publication. This journal operates a conventional double-blind reviewing policy in which the author and reviewer's name is always concealed from both parties. Authors should present their papers honestly without fabrication, falsification, plagiarism or inappropriate data manipulation.
Submitted papers are evaluated by anonymous referees based on knowledge contribution, originality, relevance and presentation. Papers will be sent for anonymous review by at least two (2) reviewers who will either be members of the Editorial Board or others of similar standing in the field.
In order to shorten the review process and respond quickly to authors, the Editors may triage a submission and come to a decision without sending the paper for external review.
The Editor shall inform the authors of the results of the review in less than 10 weeks. The Editors’ decision is final and no correspondence can be entered into concerning manuscripts considered unsuitable for publication in this journal. All correspondence, including notification of the Editors’ decision and requests for revisions, will be sent by email.
