Peer Review Process

Submitted manuscripts will be sent to peer reviewers, unless they are either out of scope or below threshold for the journal, or the presentation or written English is of an unacceptably low standard. Editors send four reviewers the request to review with the submission attached to the email. Reviewers email editors their assent (or regrets), as well as the review and recommendation. In order to facilitate the editing process and to improve the efficiency of JGHR, all peer reviewers are requested to return their comments within two weeks. All reviewers must keep the manuscripts confidential. They must not give the manuscript to any third party, or discuss the contents of the articles with the authors of the manuscript or other persons. If the reviewers feel that there is an interest conflict with the authors, personally, academically or economically, then the reviewer must inform the Editorial Office immediately.
