The Journal Prevenire conducting Peer Review Policies, including:
Objectivity and Impartiality
Reviews must be conducted objectively, free from personal bias or conflicts of interest. Evaluate submissions based solely on their academic merit, methodological rigor, and adherence to ethical standards. Disclose any potential conflicts of interest to the editorial team immediately.
Confidentiality
All materials submitted for review are confidential. Do not share, discuss, or use the content for personal or professional gain without explicit permission from the journal or author(s).
Constructive Feedback
Provide clear, constructive, and evidence-based feedback to authors. Highlight strengths, identify weaknesses, and suggest improvements to enhance the manuscript's quality. Avoid derogatory or dismissive language.
Timeliness
Adhere to the agreed-upon review timeline. If delays are unavoidable, notify the editorial team promptly to ensure minimal disruption to the publication process.
Ethical Standards
Ensure the manuscript complies with ethical guidelines, including proper attribution of sources, avoidance of plagiarism, and transparency in research methods. Report any suspected ethical violations (e.g., data fabrication, duplicate submission) to the editorial team.
Transparency
DOAJ encourages journals to disclose their peer review processes (e.g., single-blind, double-blind, open). As a reviewer, respect the journal's chosen model and maintain anonymity if required.
Scope and Relevance
Assess whether the submission aligns with the journal's scope and contributes meaningfully to the field. Recommend rejection if the content is unsuitable, but provide a rationale for the decision.
