ENSURING AN ANONYMOUS REVIEW

To guarantee the integrity of the double-blind peer review process, all efforts should be made to prevent authors from knowing the reviewers’ identities and vice versa. To do this, authors, editors, and reviewers uploading documents for review must verify that the following steps related to the text and file properties have been followed:

  •  The authors have removed their names from the text and used "Author" and the publication year in references and footnotes instead of the author’s name, article title, etc.
  • The authors have removed personal information from the file properties.
