All manuscripts are subject to preliminary assessment according to their conformity with the guidelines and scientific character by journal Editors. Every paper receives a specific number which allows for recognizing it during the whole process of peer-review. Manuscripts are sent to two competent reviewers representing an eligible field of science who come from neither the Field Editors nor the Editorial Scientific Board. At least one reviewer comes from the other country than the authors of the manuscript. The Editors guarantees that no paper is evaluated by a reviewer from the same university as its author and that reviewers have no conflicts of interest along with their papers. The process of peer-review is double-blind.
The results of this process are confidential excluding the persons directly involved (reviewer, author, editors engaged in the process of peer-review). All manuscripts which contain an empirical part are revised by a statistical editor according to the eligibility of the methods employed and verification of the results obtained. The list of all reviewers – from last two years – is published annually within the last number of the journal (in alphabetical order). All manuscripts are checked by the Cross Check service – the world premier plagiarism detection tool.
