We extend our heartfelt appreciation for your gracious willingness to provide review services for our publishing house. As reviewers, you occupy a pivotal role within the academic publishing landscape, significantly shaping the caliber and scholarly essence of our publications with your expertise and experience. Below, we delineate the core responsibilities and commitments that characterize your role as a reviewer:
1. Uphold Objectivity and Impartiality
Reviewers are entrusted with the crucial duty of impartially evaluating manuscripts, devoid of personal biases that might impede the review process. The scrutiny of research methodologies, data analyses, and conclusions should be rooted in objectivity, relying on factual evidence and logical reasoning. Factors such as the author's identity, gender, race, religion, or nationality should never influence the assessment.
2. Protect intellectual property and confidentiality
Reviewers should respect the author's intellectual property and refrain from plagiarism, tampering, or disclosing the content of the manuscript. During the review process, it is strictly forbidden to disclose the manuscript to third parties or discuss it with others. If a reviewer needs to consult with peers to better complete the review task, prior consent from the publisher and the author must be obtained.
3. Furnish Comprehensive and Constructive Feedback
Reviewers are tasked with conducting a meticulous and comprehensive evaluation of the manuscript. This entails furnishing specific and constructive recommendations for refinement. Evaluation areas encompass research methodologies, data analyses, conclusions, innovation, as well as aspects of article structure and linguistic expression. The review commentary should be constructive in nature, aiming to bolster the overall quality of the manuscript.
4. Adhere to Review Timelines
In the interest of expediting the publishing process, reviewers are expected to fulfill their review commitments within the stipulated timeframe. In exceptional circumstances where adhering to the timeframe is unfeasible, timely communication with the publisher is imperative. This allows for the arrangement of an alternative reviewer or an extension of the review duration, as necessary.
5. Disclose Conflicts of Interest
Reviewers are required to transparently disclose any potential conflicts of interest with either the manuscript's author or its research content before accepting a review task. Instances of conflict might arise from collaborative relationships, institutional affiliations, or competitive associations. Upon discovering such conflicts, it is incumbent upon the reviewer to promptly apprise the publisher. This enables the implementation of appropriate measures.
