Manuscript Review Process
- Initial Editorial Screening (Desk Review / First Decision)
After submission through the ThaiJO online system, the Editorial Board conducts an initial editorial screening within 2 business days to determine whether the manuscript falls within the field, scope, and submission requirements of the journal.
The manuscript is also checked for formatting compliance and text similarity using CopyCatch Result (for Thai manuscripts) and Turnitin Similarity Report (for English manuscripts). The similarity index must not exceed 10%.
Manuscripts that successfully pass the initial editorial screening (First Decision) will proceed to the next stage, and the corresponding author will be notified to pay the Article Processing Charge (APC) before entering the peer review process.
- Double-Blind Peer Review
Upon confirmation of the APC payment, the manuscript will be sent for Double-Blind Peer Review by three independent external reviewers. The review process normally takes approximately 60 days.
- Editorial Decision
After all reviewer reports have been received, the Editor-in-Chief will make the editorial decision. The possible outcomes are:
- Accept
- Minor Revision
- Major Revision
- Reject
If revisions are required, authors must revise the manuscript in accordance with the reviewers' comments and resubmit the revised version within the specified timeframe.
- Acceptance and Publication
Once a manuscript has been accepted for publication, the journal will issue an Acceptance Letter within 5 business days.
Accepted manuscripts are scheduled for publication according to the journal's First In, First Out (FIFO) policy and will be published in the next available issue based on the journal's publication schedule.
