CIJFMR follows a strict double blind peer review system. Throughout the review cycle, the identities of both authors and reviewers remain completely confidential. This approach ensures fairness, objectivity, and unbiased evaluation of every manuscript received by the journal.
Once a manuscript is submitted, the Editorial Team conducts an initial check that includes plagiarism screening through licensed plagiarism detection software. After the manuscript passes the preliminary assessment, it is assigned to two independent reviewers who evaluate the paper without knowing the identity of the author. The reviewers’ recommendations play a central role in determining the suitability of the manuscript for publication.
If both reviewers recommend rejection, the Editor in Chief reviews the feedback and makes the final decision. This decision is based on the reviewers’ observations, the overall academic value of the work, its relevance to the journal’s multidisciplinary audience, and adherence to ethical and legal standards, including copyright and plagiarism guidelines. CIJFMR don’t charge any publication fee.
Authors are expected to follow all peer review protocols. They must respond to queries raised during the review process and provide clarifications or additional information whenever required. If revisions are requested, authors must address each point carefully and submit an updated version of the manuscript. Final publication occurs only after all revisions have been accepted and the manuscript meets the quality standards of CIJFMR.
