Peer Review

The rigour of a peer review system ensures the quality of a research article. Choke Journal of Science and Technology employs a rigorous peer review system. All submitted manuscripts undergo a peer review process before publication. The review process is an important aspect of the publication process of an article. It enables authors to improve their manuscripts and aids editors in making decision on manuscripts. Choke Journal of Science and Technology employs a double-blind peer review system.

A double-blind peer review system is an anonymous review system whereby the identity of the author(s) of a manuscript is concealed from the selected reviewers. All details that may enable a reviewer to identify the author(s) of a manuscript are removed from the manuscript before the manuscript is sent to the reviewer. Similarly, the reviewers’ identities are also concealed from the author(s) when sending the reviewers’ comments to the author(s).

Choke Journal of Science and Technology considers the double-blind peer review system as a more effective review system because it limits possible bias from either the selected reviewers or from authors. Choke Journal of Science and Technology employs a three-stage review process – editorial office, external review and editors decision.
