Peer Review Process

  • The papers (manuscripts) are collected after giving notice publicly.
  • The papers are screened to see the general format, whether the length is appropriate, the citations and referencing is proper or not, and how appropriate the writing seems to be, etc.
  • The papers that are screened out are coded – whereby the writer of manuscript is omitted, then the manuscript is identified only by code (but the title of the paper is kept as it is)
  • The papers are sent to the expert for peer review – where the reviewer is made anonymous to the author of manuscript, and even to the anybody else in the office (except for the Chief Editor authorized by the Publication Committee of CERID). Peer review form is provided to the reviewer and the reviewer gives judgement and feedback in the form (the form is as attached). Till now one expert has thoroughly reviewed the manuscript but we are planning to get the review done by double reviewers.
  • When the peer reviewer sends their judgement and feedback on the paper, the Editorial Board decides whether the paper is acceptable or not. If it is acceptable and publishable as it is (with no need for rewriting), it is sent to language editor for finalization. But if there are suggestions for improvement given by reviewer, the Chief Editor (or editor, as authorized by Publication Committee) sits with the author and presents the feedbacks/comments and remarks given by the reviewer. The manuscript is improvised in this way.
  • Finally, the language of all the papers processed through the steps mentioned above is edited thoroughly, thus the paper is ready for printing.
