Reviewer Guideline

KOSALB employs a double-blind peer review process to ensure objective and independent evaluations. Reviewers are expected to:

• Accept reviews only within their expertise.
• Maintain confidentiality and impartiality.
• Avoid conflicts of interest; if present, they must decline the review.
• Provide constructive, respectful feedback without personal bias.
• Refrain from using content from unpublished manuscripts.
• Suggest citations only if they genuinely enhance the manuscript.
• Clearly articulate reasons for rejection when applicable.
• Do not access or use information about the identity of the author(s); if such information is obtained, the review process must be terminated.
• Be aware of and account for personal biases during the review process.
