If there is information provided by third parties in the study data, the authors are warned by the Editorial Secretariat at the pre-control stage to anonymize this data and necessary actions are taken. In the preflight phase, the work and author information can be viewed by the Editorial Secretariat, Editor and Assistant Editors. Referee processes are carried out only on the relevant article file in the anonymous stream, without author information. Likewise, the author can view the referee reports anonymously during the process. When it comes to the publishing stage, the layout editor can also access the article files. During the publication process, all journal board members are sensitive about the protection of personal data.
Ethics committee decision is required for Field and Experimental Studies. In cases where the personal information of the participants is required to be published, studies that do not have an ethics committee approval form are returned at the pre-control stage. Studies involving the disadvantaged social segment are included in the evaluation process in line with the decision of the editorial board and the opinion of the Ethics Editor, as well as the decision of the ethics committee. In this process, the anonymization policy regarding the identities of the research participants is carefully followed by the journal boards.
