Peer Review Process

  • ALIVE uses a double-blind peer review system.
  • Every submitted manuscript will be screened by the editorial team to ensure relevance, originality, and adherence to the journal guidelines.
  • Manuscripts passing initial screening will be reviewed by at least two reviewers.

Reviewers evaluate:

  • Originality
  • Clarity of analysis
  • Methodology
  • Theoretical contribution
  • Relevance to vocational English, applied linguistics and education
  • The review process typically takes 4-8 weeks.
  • Authors may be asked to revise their manuscripts before final acceptance.
  • Final decisions are made by the editor in chief based on reviewer recommendations.
