The Journal of Society And Social Work Evaluation Process 
Works submitted to the journal are initially reviewed by the Responsible Editor and/or the Editorial Secretariat. Works that do not pass this initial review will be rejected. Reasons for rejection at this stage may include, but are not limited to: non-compliance with the journal’s writing guidelines, a similarity score above 10% in the iThenticate plagiarism report, or failure to align with the journal’s publication principles.
Works that pass the initial review are forwarded to the Editorial Board for further assessment. Reasons for rejection at this stage may include, but are not limited to: falling outside the scope of the journal, non-compliance with the journal’s publication ethics and/or principles, or failure to meet the qualifications for peer review.
Works that pass the Editorial Board review are sent for peer evaluation. Expert reviewers are selected based on their specialization, with input from the Editorial Board. Each work is sent to at least two reviewers under the double-blind peer review system, and additional reviewers may be consulted if the initial reports conflict or are deemed insufficient.
Works requiring revisions based on reviewer feedback will be reviewed again after the authors make the necessary changes. If the revisions are found insufficient, the work will be rejected.
The final publication decision for articles that pass the peer review process is made by the Editorial Board. Positive reviewer reports are considered influential, but not binding, in the decision-making process.
Works deemed suitable for publication by the Editorial Board undergo final review and editing by the Responsible Editor. Articles written in English, as well as all articles with English abstracts, undergo a review by the English Editor at this stage.
