Peer Review Process

Peer-review process

All submissions to Vantage: International Journal of Management Insight must adhere to the journal's Focus, Scope, and Author Guidelines. The submitted manuscripts must meet the criteria for scientific merit, novelty, or new knowledge contribution according to the journal's focus and scope.

The article submitted to this online journal will be double-blind review and reviewed by at least 2 (two) reviewers. The accepted articles will be available online following the journal peer-reviewing process.

All submissions for this publication must be in excellent English. It is recommended that authors who do not speak English as their first language have their papers proofread for grammar and clarity before submission. International Science Editing and Asia Science Editing both offer English language and copyediting services. The work cannot have previously been released or submitted for publication.

All manuscripts that are submitted must be original works. It is advised that all authors perform similarity checks using software that detects plagiarism (please use Turnitin or iThenticate to check the similarity). The similarity of the manuscripts submitted to this journal will also be checked by the editors using the Turnitin or iThenticate tools.

The Editor in Chief alone has the authority to approve or reject a manuscript. Only the Editor's final assessment, which takes into account the remarks of the peer reviewers, determines whether or not to accept the submission (but not solely by the Reviewer).

The Editor-in-Chief will decide whether to publish accepted papers and will allocate them to published issues while taking the order of accepted dates, the authors' geographic distribution, and a thematic issue into account.
