🔍 Review Process

At Neurogrammind Journal, we are committed to ensuring a fair, rigorous, and transparent peer review process. All submitted manuscripts undergo the following steps:

1. Initial Editorial Screening

Once a manuscript is submitted, it is first evaluated by the editorial team to ensure:

  • Compliance with submission guidelines

  • Relevance to the journal’s scope

  • Absence of plagiarism or unethical content
    If the manuscript passes this stage, it proceeds to peer review.

2. Peer Review Assignment

  • Each manuscript is reviewed by at least two independent experts in the relevant field.

  • The review is conducted under a double-blind system: reviewers and authors remain anonymous to each other.

3. Review Evaluation

Reviewers are asked to evaluate:

  • Scientific validity and originality

  • Clarity of methodology and results

  • Relevance to the field of neuropsychology, linguistics, or brain sciences

  • Ethical considerations
    They may recommend one of the following:

  • Accept as is

  • Minor Revision

  • Major Revision

  • Reject

4. Editorial Decision

Based on the reviewers’ feedback, the editorial board will:

  • Communicate the decision to the author

  • Provide reviewer comments and guidance for revisions if needed

5. Revisions (if applicable)

  • Authors are given a timeline to submit the revised manuscript.

  • Revisions may be re-evaluated by the same reviewers.

6. Final Decision and Acceptance

  • After satisfactory revision, the manuscript is accepted for publication.

  • Authors will be notified and will proceed to the production phase (copyediting and layout).
