Submission

One of the authors should submit manuscripts through our Open Journal Method (OJS), the manuscript submission system for our journals, and we only accept Word files (.doc,.docx, and.rtf). Special characters should not be included in the filename. The submission done by a person other than the is not allowed. Submitting the file, the author is responsible for the communication for the submission, during peer review, and until the work is published. To receive technical assistance, please email admin@penerbitgoodwood.com.

Terms of submission

The authors should ensure that manuscripts submitted have not been previously published and are being considered for publication by this journal alone. The author submitting the article is responsible for ensuring that all co-authors have accepted this publication. It is also the obligation of the author submitting the article to ensure that it has the appropriate institutional clearances. The date of receipt is established only when the editorial office issues an acknowledgment of receipt. Unless otherwise specified, additional correspondence and proofs will be supplied to the author(s) prior to publication. It is a requirement of submission that the authors permit the work to be edited for readability. To inquire about the publication of accepted papers, please contact admin@penerbitgoodwood.com. All submissions are subject to the terms of service of Penerbit Goodwood.

Peer review

All submitted articles undergo evaluation and peer review to guarantee editorial suitability and technical accuracy.

The research presented in the journal should be:

  • Scientifically valid – according to acknowledged community research criteria.
  • Methods and outcomes that are technically sound.
  • Representative of a particular development, replication, or null/negative outcome that merits publication.
  • As replicable as feasible - whenever possible, sharing underlying data, code, and supporting materials.
  • Ethically sound and transparent – following to best practice with regard to animal and human studies, consent to publish, and declaration of potential conflicts of interests.

On the basis of the reviews and editorial input of the supporting journals, editors of the Penerbit Goodwood journal will swiftly determine whether to accept, reject, or request modifications of referred manuscripts. In addition, editors will be able to request extra reviews when necessary. The authors will be notified if the editors determine that additional review is necessary. The editor will evaluate submitted articles based on the topic and writing style outlined in the standards. To satisfy academic quality requirements, all articles undergo double-blind peer review, in which the reviewer and author identities are disguised from each other during the review process. In brief, these are the steps:

  1. Document Submission (by author).
  2. Document Evaluation and Selection (by manager and editors). 
  3. Editors may immediately accept, reject, or evaluate submissions. Prior to additional processing stages, each article undergoes a Turnitin plagiarism scan.
  4. Process of Reviewing Manuscripts (by reviewers).
  5. Notification of Acceptance, Revision, or Rejection of a Manuscript (by editor to author based on reviewers comments).
  6. Paper Modification/Editing (by author)
  7. Revision Submission based on Reviewer Suggestion (by author) with the similar flow to point number 1. 
  8. If the reviewer appears satisfied with the revision, notification of acceptance is issued (by editor). 
  9. Galley proof and publishing process.

The first five steps of the peer-reviewing process are considered a single cycle (. The editor or editorial board evaluates the peer reviewers' comments and reaches a conclusion. The following are the most prevalent choices:

  1. Accepted, as it is. The manuscript will be published with the original version;
  2. Revisions Required (Minor Revisions), the journal will publish the manuscript and invite the author to make minor adjustments (within the given period);
  3. Resubmit for Review (Major Revisions), the journal is willing to examine the work in a subsequent round of deliberation if the authors make substantial revisions;
  4. Rejected (outright rejection), the journal will not publish or evaluate the work, even if the authors make substantial amendments.

In the spirit of sharing findings through our open research mission, not only novelty, interest, or perceived effect that are encouraged but also replication studies, especially of findings published in this journal.

In order for a manuscript to be approved for publication, the editor will first determine whether it meets the basic editorial standards and falls within the journal's scope. If an article is deemed eligible for the journal, the editor will preferably solicit the opinions of at least two external peer reviewers (who will remain anonymous to the authors) before confirming a decision to publish. Rejection decisions are made at the discretion of the editor.

Occasionally, our research integrity team will seek guidance outside of conventional peer review, such as for contributions having significant ethical, security, biosecurity, or societal concerns. Before deciding on suitable actions, we may consult with experts and the editor, including but not limited to: recruiting reviewers with specific knowledge, assessing the submission by additional editors, and denying further consideration of a submission.

Article processing charges

Our journals are freely available online. Some journals impose Article Processing Charges (APCs) to permit the publisher to make papers immediately accessible online for anyone to read and reuse upon publication.

Preprints

Penerbit Goodwood accepts the submission of manuscripts to preprint servers and does not believe that this compromises the originality of the results. Consideration will be given to articles based on content previously published exclusively on a preprint server, institutional repository, or in a thesis. The preprint must be referenced.

 

 

Preregistration of studies

Authors are urged to specify whether the research was preregistered in an independent, institutional registry (e.g., http://clinicaltrials.gov/https://www.socialscienceregistry.org/http://osf.io/https://egap.org/registry/http://ridie.3ieimpact.org/). ). Prior to performing research, preregistration entails registering the study's design, variables, and treatment conditions.

Preregistration of analysis plans

Authors are strongly encouraged to indicate whether the conducted research was preregistered with an analysis plan in an independent, institutional registry (e.g., http://clinicaltrials.gov/https://www.socialscienceregistry.org/http://osf.io/https://egap.org/registry/http://ridie.3ieimpact.org/). Preregistration of studies requires the registration of the study's design, variables, and treatment conditions. Inclusion of an analysis plan requires a description of the sequence of analyses or the statistical model to be supplied.

Date formatting

Penerbit Goodwood suggests writing out dates completely to avoid confusion with various all-numeral date formats. Depending on the reader, 11/10/2018 might be 10 November 2018 or 11 October 2018, therefore the date should be stated out in full. The date 1 September 2018 should be used as opposed to 01/09/2018 or 09/01/2018.

Units of measurement
