Peer Review Process

The Ecovisi Journal of Economics, Business and Finance (EJEBF) applies a double-blind peer review process to maintain the quality, originality, and academic integrity of all manuscripts.

Initial Screening

All submissions are reviewed by the Editorial Team to ensure alignment with the journal’s scope, formatting requirements, and ethical standards. Manuscripts failing to meet these criteria may be returned without external review.

Plagiarism Check

All manuscripts are screened using plagiarism detection software. Submissions with a similarity index above the acceptable threshold will be rejected.

Reviewer Assignment

Manuscripts passing the initial checks are assigned to at least two independent reviewers with relevant expertise. Both author and reviewer identities remain anonymous.

Review Criteria

Reviewers evaluate manuscripts based on:

  • Originality and significance of contribution
  • Theoretical framework and literature support
  • Research methodology and data validity
  • Clarity of presentation
  • Relevance to the journal’s focus and scope

Review Timeline

Reviewers are given 2–4 weeks to complete the review. Authors may be asked to revise manuscripts based on reviewer feedback.

Decision Process

The Editorial Board considers reviewer recommendations before making a decision:

  • Accept without changes
  • Accept with minor revisions
  • Revise and resubmit (major revisions)
  • Reject

Revision and Resubmission

Authors must submit revisions within the given deadline and provide a detailed response to reviewer comments.

Final Decision & Proofreading

The Editor-in-Chief makes the final acceptance decision. Accepted manuscripts undergo copyediting and proofreading.

Publication

The final version is published online in the scheduled issue and assigned a DOI (Digital Object Identifier).
