Editors are responsible for maintaining the scholarly quality, fairness, and integrity of the journal.

Editorial Duties

  • Assess manuscripts for scope, quality, and ethical readiness.
  • Assign qualified reviewers without conflicts of interest.
  • Make decisions based on academic merit and reviewer feedback.
  • Protect confidentiality throughout peer review.

Ethical Oversight

Editors should respond to plagiarism concerns, authorship disputes, data issues, corrections, and retraction requests according to publication ethics best practices.

Detailed Guidance

This resource explains the journal policy in practical terms so authors, reviewers, editors, and readers can understand expectations before taking action.

The guidance supports open-access publishing by emphasizing transparency, ethical conduct, accessible research outputs, and clear communication throughout the publication workflow.

Where a case needs individual review, the editorial office may request additional documents, statements, files, or clarifications before making a final decision.

Editorial Checklist

  • Confirm the article scope, author details, affiliations, and corresponding author information.
  • Provide complete ethics, consent, funding, data availability, and conflict-of-interest statements where relevant.
  • Use clear files, readable figures, complete references, and consistent formatting before submission.
  • Respond to editorial and reviewer queries with point-by-point clarification and revised files when requested.

Open Access Practice

Published content should remain easy to discover, easy to cite, and easy to reuse with attribution. Aperito Publishing encourages responsible sharing through repositories, indexing services, academic profiles, and institutional networks.
