Review Process
The author(s) may recommend a list of potential reviewers (title, name, institution, postage address, and email address) maximum 10 reviewers to review their paper. Authors can also propose that someone does not review (maximum 5 researchers) with a reasonable explanation. Reviewers must have the Scopus-ID or Researcher-ID (Thomson Reuters) or recorded as a first author in this journal with (minimum has) a doctoral degree.
Reviewers may also be invited from journals published by major publishers such as Elsevier or Springer. They must come from different institutions with the authors; preferably originating from different countries. Reviewers must not be subject to a conflict of interest involving the author(s) or manuscript(s). Nevertheless, the editor is not obliged to use any reviewers proposed by the author(s).
All articles submitted to JIPP will be read and reviewed blindly (double blind peer review) by (minimum) 2 Peer-reviewers who are expert in their field. The Editor may assign the Reviewer(s) from JIPP's Peer-reviewers, Author(s)' suggestions, other researchers, and/or other JIPP Editorial Members. The acceptance of an article by Editor depends on the novelty of the results of the research, significance of the article, truth of the content, the degree of originality, the clarity of description, and the conformity with the objective of the journal.
Articles may be accepted without revision, minor revisions, major revision, or rejected. The results of reviewed articles by reviewers will be notified to the author via email. The author is given an opportunity to revise his article based on the reviewers' recommendations (and editor) no later than 8 weeks after the email notification.
All incoming articles will be checked for authenticity to prevent plagiarism by using anti-plagiarism software. All articles published on JIPP are open access by following the Creative Commons Atribusi-BerbagiSerupa 4.0 Internasional license
