Peer Review Policy

Asian Journal of Public Health (AJPH)

The Asian Journal of Public Health follows a rigorous and transparent peer review process to ensure the quality, accuracy, and integrity of all published research. All submitted manuscripts are initially screened by the editorial office for relevance, originality, and compliance with submission guidelines. Suitable manuscripts are then sent to independent expert reviewers with relevant expertise in the subject area. AJPH primarily employs a double-blind peer review system, where both authors and reviewers remain anonymous to ensure impartial evaluation. Reviewers assess manuscripts for scientific validity, methodological rigor, ethical compliance, and clarity of presentation, providing constructive feedback to improve the work. The editorial board considers reviewer recommendations carefully in making final publication decisions. AJPH is committed to maintaining confidentiality, fairness, and timeliness throughout the peer review process, and any conflicts of interest must be disclosed by both reviewers and editors.
