PEER REVIEW PROCESS
Diwan: Jurnal Bahasa dan Sastra Arab is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of peer-review integrity and ensuring the quality of the review process. After the editor evaluates your work to determine if it is appropriate, it will undergo a single-blind peer review process conducted by independent and anonymous expert referees. The average duration from article submission to publication is 12 weeks.
The steps of the peer review process are as follows:
Step 1: Initial Screening and Internal Review
The process of peer review consists of multiple stages, commencing with the submission of your paper to a journal. During the desk evaluation, the Editor will assess the suitability of the submission by evaluating whether the author has adhered to the guidelines provided by the journal. Desk evaluation is conducted based on the Desk Evaluation Rubric as an objective instrument. If the editor does not reject the article outright, it will go to the next level, which involves undergoing peer review.
Step 2: Peer Review
The editor will identify and reach out to possible Reviewers who possess expertise in the topic of the manuscript. The reviewer reviews the substance of the manuscript and makes a recommendation as to whether the article is acceptable or not.
Step 3: Revise and Resubmit
Subsequently, the Author has to revise the manuscript based on the feedback provided by the Reviewers, and subsequently resubmit it with all or any alterations implemented by attaching the Revision Form. If the Editor deems the adjustments the Author has made to be insufficient, the Author may be required to make additional revisions or face the possibility of paper rejection.
