Peer Review Process

Puteri Hijau aims to publish academic articles that uncover new depths in historical studies and history education. To ensure this, we employ a double-blind peer review, which means that both the reviewers and authors identities are concealed from each other throughout the review process.

More specifically, our editorial process is as follows:

1. Initial screening. All submissions are initially screened by the Editor in Chief for their conformity to Puteri Hijau’s scope and basic submission requirements and checked for plagiarism. Manuscripts that fail to abide by our ethical standards are immediately rejected, as are manuscripts that do not fit within the journal’s scope.

1. Reviewer assignment. Manuscripts that pass the initial screening are then handed over to a section editor, who will select at least two relevant reviewers and initiate the peer-review process.
2. Peer-review. During this stage, a reviewer will assess the content of the manuscript and provide their recommendation to the Editor in Chief. The review is done for 4-8 weeks.
3. First decision. Once both (or more) reviewers have submitted their recommendations, the manuscript is either rejected, asked for revisions (minor or major), or accepted as is. If it is accepted, the manuscript is returned to the submitting author for proofreading. The final decision to accept the manuscript is made by the Editor in Chief based on the recommendation of the section editor and following approval by the editorial board.
4. Revision. A manuscript that requires revisions is returned to the submitting author, who will have up to four weeks to revise the manuscript. Once the revision is submitted, it is once again assessed by the section editor to determine whether the changes are adequate and appropriate, as well as whether the author(s) sufficiently responded to the reviewer’s comments and suggestions. If the revisions are deemed to be inadequate, this step is repeated (the manuscript is returned to the submitting author once more for further revision).
5. Final decision. Finally, the revised manuscript is either accepted or rejected, depending on whether the section editor and editor in chief have found the manuscript to have been improved to a level worthy of publication. If the author(s) are unable to make the required changes or have done so to a degree below Puteri Hijau’s standards, the manuscript is rejected.
6. Language editing. Once the manuscript is accepted, it is returned to the submitting author for the final editing of its language and content; these are changes that improve the readability of the article without changing the substance of the content. Puteri Hijau requires authors to return the manuscript with proof that changes have been made, which the editorial board will review before ultimately green-lighting the manuscript for publication.
7. Typesetting. Once green-light, the manuscript is handed over to the journal’s typesetter. The final version of the article, as it will appear in Puteri Hijau, is returned to the submitting author for proofreading and final approval.
8. Publication. Congratulations! The published article will appear in the latest issue of Puteri Hijau.

Publication Ethics

It is strictly against the ethics of academic article publication for duplication of publication. It is mandatory that contributors (authors) provide a written declaration that a manuscript submitted to Puteri Hijau has not been previously published and is not being considered for other publications. In addition, we have a commitment to ensure that all submissions are original. Therefore, the editorial office of our journal is responsible to cross-check to ensure that submitted manuscripts have not been published prior to their submission to Puteri Hijau.

There is a limit to the extent that Puteri Hijau can examine submitted works. As such, we call upon external reviewers and the academic community to report any misconduct to our help desk officer via puterihijau@unimed.ac.id for prompt action to be taken.

Puteri Hijau may initiate a retraction if work is proven to be fraudulent or an expression of concern if our editors have well-founded suspicion of misconduct. In addition, Puteri Hijau can facilitate a replacement. In this case, the author(s)'s of the original article may wish to retract the flawed original article and replace it with a revised version.

Neither peer-reviewer comments nor correspondence should contain personal attacks on authors. Editors and peer-reviewers should only criticize the work, not the researcher and should edit (or reject) letter containing personal or offensive statements.

Authors of Puteri Hijau must adhere to the following guidelines:

• The authorship should balance intellectual contributions to the conception, design, analysis, and writing of the manuscript against other work in relation to the research. If there is no task that can reasonably be attributed to a particular individual, this individual should not be credited with the authorship.

• Authors must declare that the work reported is their own and that they are the copyright owner (or else have obtained the copyright owner's permission).

• Authors must declare that the submitted article and its essential content have not previously been published and are not being considered for publication elsewhere.

• The author should avoid disputes over attribution of academic credit. Therefore, it is helpful to decide early on who will be credited as the corresponding author, contributors, and who will be acknowledged.

• Authors must take public responsibility for the content of their paper. It is unethical to submit a manuscript to more than one journal concurrently.

• Any conflict of interest must be clearly stated.

• Authors must acknowledge the data sources of their research and should acknowledge financial support sources to the research if any.

• All errors discovered in the manuscript after submission must be quickly communicated to the Editor.

• Authors should state that the papers they submit have been approved by the relevant research ethics committee or institutional review board. If human participants were involved, manuscripts must be accompanied by a statement that the participants had signed informed consent forms.

• Authors should submit a short description of all contributions to their manuscript. Each author's contribution should be described in brief. Authors of research papers should state whether they had complete access to the study data that support the publication. Contributors who do not qualify as authors should also be listed and their particular contribution described. This information should appear as an acknowledgement.

• Authors should include information about their research funding in their manuscripts.

• Authors have a right to appeal to editorial decisions.

• All manuscripts are reviewed in fairness based on the intellectual content of the paper regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, religion, citizenry nor political values of the authors.

• Any observed conflict of interest during the review process must be communicated to the editor.

• All information pertaining to the manuscript is kept confidential.

• Any information that may be the reason for a publication rejection must be communicated to the Editor.

• The duty of confidentiality in the assessment of a manuscript must be maintained by expert reviewers, and this extends to reviewers colleagues who may be asked (with the editor’s permission) to give opinions on specific sections.

• The submitted manuscript should not be retained or copied.

• Reviewers and editors should not make any use of the data, arguments, or interpretations unless they have the author permission.

• Reviewers should provide speedy, accurate, courteous, unbiased, and justifiable reports.

• Reviewers assigned to an article will comment on the following items:

1. The importance, originality, and timeliness of the study.
2. Strengths and weaknesses of the study design and data analysis for research papers or the analysis and commentary for essays.
3. Writing, organization, and presentation
4. The degree to which the findings justify the conclusion.
5. The relevance, usefulness, and comprehensibility of the article for the Journal’s target audience.

• Editors’ decisions to accept or reject a paper for publication should be based only on the paper’s importance, originality, and clarity, and the study’s relevance to the remit of the journal.

• Editors must treat all submitted papers as confidential.

• Editors should inform peer reviewers about this Misconduct.

• Editors should encourage peer-reviewers to consider the ethical issues raised by the research they are reviewing.

• Editors should request additional information from authors if they feel this is required.

• Editors should exercise sensitivity when publishing images of objects that might have cultural significance or cause offence.

• Editors should inform readers if ethical breaches have occurred.

• Editors should encourage peer-reviewers to decline peer-review request if they identify a conflict of interest with the manuscript.

• Editors may assign peer-reviewers suggested by authors but should not consider suggestions made by authors as binding.

• Editors should mediate all exchanges between authors and peer reviewers during the peer-review process (i.e. prior to publication). If an agreement cannot be reached, editors should consider inviting comments from additional peer reviewer(s) if the editor feels that this would be helpful.

• Decisions by editors about whether or not to publish submitted manuscripts must not be influenced by pressure from the editor's employer, the journal owner, or the publisher.

• Editors should publish corrections for discovered errors that could affect the interpretation of data or information presented in a manuscript.

• Editors should expect allegations of theft or plagiarism to be substantiated and should treat allegations of theft or plagiarism seriously.

• Editors should keep peer-reviewers’ identities from authors. If peer-reviewers’ identities are revealed, editors should discourage authors from contacting peer-reviewer directly, especially when misconduct is suspected.

• Editors should reserve the right to reject manuscripts if there is a doubt whether appropriate procedures have been followed. If a paper has been submitted from a country where there is no ethics committee or institutional review board, editors should use their own experience to judge whether or not the paper can be published. If the decision is made to publish a paper under this circumstance, a short statement should be included to explain this situation.

• Editors should ensure timely peer-review and publication for manuscripts they receive, especially where findings may have important implications.

• The Editorial Board is responsible for making publication decisions based on the reviewer’s evaluation, policies of the journal editorial board and legal restrain acting against plagiarism, libel, and copyright infringement
