All articles published in the Jurnal IPTEK bagi Masyarakat undergo a comprehensive peer review process, with the following key characteristics:
-
Review Process
Submitted manuscripts are evaluated by at least two anonymous reviewers to assess their scientific contribution, originality, relevance to the journal's focus and scope, and presentation quality. This journal implements a double-blind review system, in which the identities of both authors and reviewers are concealed to maintain objectivity. The final publication decision is made by the Editor-in-Chief based on reviewers' recommendations. Authors will be informed of the review results as promptly as possible, with an average review time of 10 to 60 days from the date of submission. -
Editorial Process and Technical Support
Members of the Editorial Board provide input, guidance, and support to the Editor-in-Chief, both in general journal management and in making decisions on specific manuscripts. The managing editor and editorial assistants are responsible for providing administrative support, ensuring the review and publication processes run efficiently, promptly, and with scientific integrity. -
Plagiarism Detection
Every submitted manuscript is checked for similarity using Turnitin software to detect potential plagiarism. Only manuscripts free from plagiarism will proceed to the publication stage.
