3. Review/Referees
Scientific contributions will be double blind peer-reviewed on the criteria of originality and quality. To aid in the peer review, authors can provide the names, addresses and e-mail addresses of up to 3 potential referees, although the editor will not necessarily contact them.
4. Revised Manuscripts
In revised manuscripts, the areas containing the major required changes should be marked and the script color changed.

When submitting a revised/revised version of an article, the author should specify on the article file how each question/suggestion brought by the referees is handled and where it can be found. The revised articles should be restored to the system within 20 days from the end of the referee evaluation process. If the revised version of the study is not delivered within the specified period, the article can be rejected by canceling the revision option. If the sending author(s) believes additional time is required, they must request this extension before the first 20 days. The last copy of the accepted works is sent to the responsible author before printing. Publication confirmation is requested within 3 days after the receipt of these documents.
