Peer Review System

Peer review, also known as refereeing, is a critical process in which you, as an author, play a vital role. Your scholarly work and research ideas are subjected to evaluation by experts in the same field, ensuring impartial and rigorous scrutiny and fostering adherence to the highest academic standards. The SPAMAST Research Journal engages a community of qualified specialists, including you, to evaluate manuscripts for originality, relevance, technical quality, and contribution to the field.

Peer review is conducted in a double-masked format, where both authors and reviewers remain anonymous to ensure objectivity and impartiality. This evaluative step, happening during manuscript screening, is a crucial part of the process that prevents the dissemination of unfounded claims, biased interpretations, or incomplete analyses. Through constructive feedback and advice, peer review enhances the quality and credibility of publications, providing a reassurance of the process's integrity.

For publication and grant funding alike, research must demonstrate novelty and substantive merit. The peer review system at SPAMAST plays a crucial role in this, increasing the likelihood that research weaknesses are identified and addressed. This process ultimately contributes to the advancement of knowledge in agriculture, marine sciences, business, education, engineering, and related disciplines, inspiring and motivating all involved.
