The Journal of Contemporary Perspectives in Management and Social Sciences (JCP) relies on a rigorous peer review process to ensure the quality, originality, and relevance of published work. Reviewers play a critical role in maintaining these standards. The following guidelines outline expectations for reviewers.

General Guidelines

Before You Begin

• Ensure the manuscript matches your area of expertise.
• Disclose any potential conflicts of interest.
• Confirm your ability to meet the review deadline.

Invitation to Review

• All manuscripts submitted to JCP undergo peer review by at least two experts (volunteer reviewers, members of the Reviewer Board, or experts recommended by the academic editor).
• Reviewers are expected to:
  • Promptly accept or decline invitations.
  • Suggest alternative reviewers if unavailable.
  • Request deadline extensions if additional time is needed.

Conflicts of Interest

• Disclose any conflicts such as:
  • Recent co-authorship, institutional affiliations, personal relationships, or financial interests.
• Contact the Editorial Office if uncertain.
• Reviewing a manuscript previously assessed for another journal is not considered a conflict of interest.
• Reviewers must consult the Ethical Guidelines for Peer Reviewers.

Confidentiality

• All manuscript content (including the abstract) must remain confidential until publication.
• Reviewers must not reveal their identity in comments or file metadata.
