JDRR has designed an intuitive submission workflow to minimize administrative burden while maintaining rigorous quality standards. Authors can choose from multiple submission pathways and receive clear communication at every stage.
Prepare your manuscript according to JDRR's author guidelines, including formatting requirements, reference style, figure specifications, and ethical documentation. Use our templates to ensure compliance.
Submit via our online portal, Manuscript Zone, or directly by email. Upload your manuscript file, figures, supplementary materials, and required documentation.
Your submission undergoes initial screening by the editorial team to assess scope alignment, scientific merit, and technical completeness before assignment to expert reviewers.
Independent experts evaluate your manuscript for originality, methodological rigor, data quality, and contribution to the field. Expect constructive, timely feedback through our rigorous peer review process.
Based on reviewer recommendations, you will receive a decision: acceptance, minor revisions, major revisions, or rejection. Detailed feedback guides any necessary revisions.
Accepted manuscripts undergo professional copyediting and formatting to ensure clarity, consistency, and adherence to journal style while preserving your scientific content.
Your article is published online with immediate open access, assigned a permanent DOI for citation, and submitted to indexing services for maximum discoverability.
JDRR articles are strategically indexed and archived to ensure long-term accessibility and citation visibility. Our content appears in major academic databases, search engines, and institutional repositories, connecting your research with relevant audiences.
Each published article receives a unique DOI through Crossref, facilitating accurate citation tracking and integration with reference management systems. JDRR also supports author self-archiving and institutional repository deposit to maximize research impact.
JDRR upholds the highest standards of publication ethics, guided by COPE principles and international best practices. We are committed to:
- Research Integrity: Originality verification, plagiarism screening, and data validation ensure authentic, trustworthy science.
- Ethical Compliance: All research involving human subjects, animals, or biohazards must document appropriate approvals and ethical oversight.
- Conflict of Interest Disclosure: Authors, reviewers, and editors must declare any potential conflicts that could influence objectivity.
- Authorship Transparency: Contributor roles must be clearly defined, and all listed authors must approve the final manuscript.
- Data Availability: We encourage data sharing and transparency to facilitate reproducibility and validation of published findings.
