Peer Review Process
CAIRE Business and Economic Review (CBER) aims to uphold high standards of academic rigor with fair, objective and transparent double blind peer-review process. Manuscripts submitted are assessed by the editorial team and, if appropriate, by external reviewers for originality, relevance, research methods and impact.
The first thing each manuscript is evaluated against is whether it is within the scope of the journal, whether it meets the submission criteria, and whether it meets the basic academic levels. Those manuscripts that satisfy the initial criteria can then be passed to a qualified and competent reviewer who has a related field of specialization.
Objectives of Peer Review
The purpose of the peer review is to:
● Have high expectations for academic achievement.
● Encourage the integrity of research and publication.
● Discuss the originality and importance of the research.
● Evaluate research methodology and its appropriateness.
● Enhance the clarity and presentation of manuscripts.
● Give constructive criticism of work to writers.
● Help make decisions on editorial issues in a fair and objective manner.
● Promote ongoing learning and development.
Review Criteria
Manuscripts are judged by reviewers on:
● Originality and novelty of the research.
● Significance of the study in relation to journal's aims and scope.
● Quality of the literature review and critical analysis.
● Clarity of research objectives and arguments.
● Appropriateness of the research method.
● Accuracy of data analysis and interpretation.
● The validity and significance of the results.
● Organisation and quality of writing.
● Ethical compliance.
● Overall contribution to innovation, research and related discipline.
Editorial Decisions
The Editor, following the suggestions of the reviewers, reserves the right to make one of the following decisions:
● Accept without revision.
● Accept with minor revisions.
● Revise and resubmit after major revisions.
● Reject the manuscript.
Authors should think carefully of the comments from the reviewers and submit a revised manuscript and response to reviewers within the specified time frame when they get a revision request.
A manuscript's scholarly value, originality, relevance, methodological soundness, and overall contribution, in addition to the reviewers' recommendations, are used to make the final publication decision. During the review process, CBER strives to maintain confidentiality, fairness, editorial independence, transparency and scholarly excellence.
