Peer Review Process

IRDH International Journal of Social Sciences & Humanities (IRDH IJSCH) Double-blind Peer Review Process. All submitted manuscripts are read by Editor in Chief of IRDH initially for desk evaluation. Unsuitable submitted manuscripts in terms of focus and scope would be rejected promptly without external review. Manuscripts evaluated to be of potential interest to our readership would be assigned to a corresponding section editor for further handling. The section editor will request at least two scientists to review the manuscript. Based on the comments from the reviewers, Section Editor, and Editor in Chief will make the decision on the manuscript.

The duration of the review process in IRDH IJSCH is 4 to 8 weeks. This review period depends on the board of reviewers. The stages of the review process applied at IRDH IJSCH are as follows:

  1. Submission of manuscripts is only processed via online i.e OJS of JIWP, website: https://irdhjournals. com /index.php/IJMB/index
  2. The incoming manuscripts will be checked whether it matches the focus and scope of IRDH IJMB. The editor will inform whether the manuscripts are in accordance with IRDH IJMB's focus and scope. If appropriate, the next process will be carried out. If not, we will recommend the manuscript to be submitted to another journal. Editor of IRDH IJSCH will notify immediately via email.
  3. Furthermore, the manuscripts will be checked with Turnitin (similarity check). If more than 15% level of similarity, the manuscripts will be asked to be repaired or rejected by IRDH IJSCH editor in chief. This decision is entirely the prerogative right of the IRDH IJSCH editor in chief and cannot be contested.
  4. Then, the manuscripts will be reviewed at the editorial level to find out whether it contributes sufficiently to the development of science and practice in the field of pharmacurtical science. The editor will inform the authors of the results of this review. Manuscripts that qualify at this stage will proceed to the review stage by peer reviewer.
  5. For manuscript that is accepted with revisions (minor or major), it will contain comments from peer reviewers and be returned to the author to be revised. Referring to the policy in IRDH International Journal of Social Sciences & Humanities (IRDH IJSCH), reviewers only give suggestions on whether the manuscript is accepted or rejected. Meanwhile, the final decision regarding the acceptance or rejection of the manuscript is in the hand of the editor and editor-in-chief.
