Peer review
International Journal of Sub-Saharan African Research (IJSSAR) employs a rigorous double-blind peer review process. Manuscripts are first assessed internally by the Editorial Board for originality and adherence to scope, style and guidelines. Manuscripts that do not meet the criteria are returned to the author(s) while successful ones are assigned two external peer reviewers on blind basis. The reviewers, who are selected for their expertise, are provided with review guidelines and given a time limit of 21 working days within which to review and return the manuscript with their comments to the journal Editor. Reviewers can recommend publication with varying levels of revision or rejection. Authors are given 14 working days to revise and resubmit, with possible extensions. The process typically takes 8-10 weeks, after which the Editorial team reserves the right to make final adjustments.
