Peer-Review Process
Before entering the peer-review stage, all manuscripts submitted to DIGLOSIA will undergo a pre-evaluation process. Submitted manuscripts must adhere to the journal's focus and scope, author guidelines, and the template provided by the editorial board. Manuscripts must demonstrate scientific merit or novelty consistent with the journal's scope. A manuscript may be returned to the author without review if it fails to meet submission requirements, does not follow the required format, cannot be downloaded correctly, exceeds the word count, lacks substantive quality, or is poorly and unclearly presented. This pre-evaluation stage also includes plagiarism screening using Turnitin, in accordance with the journal's plagiarism policy.
Manuscripts that pass the pre-evaluation will be assigned by the Editor-in-Chief (or by the Managing Editor or another Editor appointed by the Editor-in-Chief) to proceed to the peer-review stage. A double-blind peer review process is implemented, meaning the identities of both authors and reviewers are concealed from each other. Reviewer comments are confidential and will not be disclosed to authors in any manner that could reveal the reviewer's identity.
All manuscripts must undergo the peer-review process. If revisions are required, authors must submit the revised manuscript within the timeframe specified in the editorial correspondence. The peer-review process for regular article submissions consists of at least two rounds, with each round taking approximately 4–8 weeks. The first round is calculated from the date the manuscript enters the review stage following pre-evaluation; subsequent rounds are calculated from the date the revised manuscript is received by the editor.
We guarantee that all reviewed manuscripts are treated confidentially prior to publication, in accordance with the journal's publication ethics. The Editor will make the final decision to accept or decline the manuscript based on the reviewers' comments. Upon completion of the review process, the corresponding author will be notified via email. The Editor will determine whether the manuscript is suitable for publication, resulting in one of the following decisions: resubmission for review, revision required (minor or major), declined, or accepted without revision. These decision types are outlined in the Author Guidelines.
