Ongoing Training
Editors receive periodic updates on ethics guidance and peer review best practices to maintain high quality decisions.
Training materials include short checklists and examples that help editors handle complex cases with consistency and confidence quickly.
Decision Templates
Standardized decision templates help editors deliver clear, consistent feedback. Templates include sections for summary assessment, major revisions, minor revisions, and required ethical clarifications.
Using templates reduces variability in author experience and ensures key points are communicated efficiently.
Templates also include prompts for data availability statements, conflicts of interest, and reporting guideline checks to support compliance.
Ethics and Integrity Support
Editors can access guidance on plagiarism checks, image integrity, and conflict of interest handling. The editorial office can assist with complex cases that require additional review.
When concerns arise, editors may request supporting documentation or consult the ethics panel to ensure fair resolution. Editors can also request advice on image manipulation or duplicate submission concerns through the editorial office when issues arise during review and resolution for cases promptly.
Editorial Metrics
Editors can request basic metrics such as review turnaround times, acceptance rates, and decision timelines to monitor performance and identify workflow improvements.
These insights support efficient management and help the journal maintain consistent service standards for authors and reviewers.
Metrics are used for internal improvement and are not published as performance rankings. The goal is to strengthen editorial support and ensure a reliable experience for authors across all regions.
