Peer Review Process

Upon submission of a manuscript to the Journal of Accounting, Management, Economic Development, the Editor-in-Chief will assess its suitability for publication. Manuscripts that do not align with the journal's focus and scope will be rejected outright without any external review.

Potential manuscripts will be reviewed by experts, and the Editor-in-Chief will make a decision based on their recommendations from among several possibilities: rejected, require major revision, need minor revision, or accepted. The final decision on publication will be made following a double-blind peer review, which considers the articles' relevance and contribution to both theory and practical development. Both editors and reviewers will provide feedback to authors regarding evaluation results. Ultimately, the Editor-in-Chief has the final decision on which manuscripts will be published in the journal.

The process for reviewing a manuscript typically takes 4 to 12 weeks on average, depending on the time taken by editors and reviewers to complete their assessments. Only manuscripts submitted through the online journal system (OJS) on the journal's website at http://www.journal.abhinaya.co.id will be processed.

  1. The manuscripts will undergo a thorough evaluation to ensure compliance with the journal's author guidelines and submission template. Additionally, they will be assessed to determine alignment with the journal's focus and scope. If deemed appropriate, the next steps in the process will be initiated. If unsuitable, authors will be advised to submit their work to an alternative journal. Editors will promptly notify authors of the status via OJS and email.

  2. All manuscripts will go through a similarity check using Turnitin to ensure originality. If the similarity level exceeds 25%, the manuscript will be rejected during the desk evaluation stage. The Editor-in-Chief's decision is final and cannot be disputed.

  3. An assigned editor will review manuscripts to determine if they make a significant contribution to the advancement of business and management in science and practice. If they meet the criteria, two peer reviewers will conduct an independent review using the journal's review form.

  4. If a manuscript is accepted with revisions (minor or major), it will come with comments from peer reviewers and need to be revised by the author. Reviewers only provide suggestions for acceptance or rejection. Ultimately, the editor and Editor-in-Chief make the final decision.

  5. Authors are given one month to revise their manuscripts. If additional time is required, they may request an extension by emailing the editor at jamed@abhinaya.co.id. If no response is received within the specified time, it will be assumed that the author has withdrawn their manuscript.

  6. After completing final revisions, manuscripts accepted by the editor will be published in the Journal of Accounting, Management, Economic Development. The Editor-in-Chief will determine the edition for publication. Authors may request a specific volume or issue via email to the Editor-in-Chief at jamed@abhinaya.co.id.
