Sendikraf utilizes a double-blind peer review. The identities of reviewers and authors are concealed from each other throughout the review process. A detailed summary of our full editorial process, including peer review, is as follows. 

1. All submissions are initially screened by the Chief Editor for their conformity to our scope and basic submission requirements, and checked for plagiarism. Manuscripts that fail to abide by our ethical standards are immediately rejected, as are those that do not fit within the journal's scope.
2. Manuscripts that pass the initial screening are then handed over to a section editor, who will select at least two relevant reviewers and initiate the peer review process.
3. Once a reviewer has agreed to review the manuscript, they will assess the content of the manuscript and provide their recommendation to the Chief Editor.
4. After every reviewer has submitted their recommendations, the manuscript is either rejected or revisions are requested.
5. A manuscript that requires revisions is returned to the submitting author, who will have up to four weeks to revise it. Once the revision is submitted, it is once again assessed by the section editor to determine whether the changes are adequate and appropriate, as well as whether the author(s) sufficiently responded to the reviewers' comments and suggestions. If the revisions are deemed to be inadequate, this step is repeated (the manuscript is returned to the submitting author once more for further revision).
6. Finally, the revised manuscript is either accepted or rejected, depending on whether the section editor has found the manuscript to have been improved to a level worthy of publication. If an author is unable to make the requested changes, the manuscript is rejected. The final decision to accept the manuscript is made by the Chief Editor based on the recommendation of the section editor and following approval by the editorial board.
7. An accepted manuscript is returned to the submitting author for final editing of its language and content; these are changes that improve the readability of the article without changing the substance of the content. Sendikraf requires authors to return the manuscript with proof that changes have been made, following which it will also be checked by an in-house copyeditor and reviewed by the editorial board before it is ultimately greenlit for publication.

Once greenlit, the manuscript is handed over to the journal’s typesetter. The final version of the article, as it will appear in Sendikraf, is returned to the submitting author for proofreading and final approval.
