Peer Review Process

CPC Journal follows a double-blind peer review process.

An e-mail message or letter will acknowledge manuscript receipt. If accepted for the blind review, the manuscript will be sent to, at least, two reviewers:

Typically, one has broad general knowledge of the field, and one has expertise in a particular topic or methodology. Within six months, authors can expect to receive one of four decisions:

(a) manuscript acceptance;
(b) acceptance with revision;
(c) nonacceptance with an invitation for revision and resubmission for another round of review; or,
(d) nonacceptance and recommendation for submission to a different publication.

Reviewers aim to provide authors with helpful feedback for manuscript revision and future manuscript preparation. Manuscripts that fail to follow submission guidelines will not be reviewed and will be rejected.
