Peer Review Process

Only research content manuscripts inline with research contents that are in line with the focus and scope of the Journal Segara will be selected for further reviews. All selected manuscripts are then verified by the journal’s editors for writing format based on the journal guidelines and checked for potential plagiarism using plagiarism detection software (Ithenticate and Google Scholar). To comply with the Journal Segara standard on plagiarism, the authors must include the signed Authorship Statement when submitting the manuscript.

After meeting the writing format requirements and succeeding plagiarism checks, the Editor in Chief will assign a manuscript to a member of the editorial Board to determine whether the manuscript is accepted for publication or not. A regular (semester) editorial board meeting is held to formally accept or reject manuscripts. The rejected manuscripts will be returned to the authors.

The accepted manuscripts will be sent to reviewers following a double-blind peer-review policy. The reviewed manuscripts are sent back to the authors for the necessary revision, and the revised version will be rechecked for plagiarism to maintain high publication quality, post-revision process.

The journal’s editors will carry out a final proofreading in consultation with the authors to improve the readability of the revised manuscripts for final publication.  All review and publication processes within the Journal Segara are through the journal online system.

This journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge.
