After successful peer review and acceptance, articles undergo professional editing and are published promptly in the current issue. Published articles are provided with a DOI and are immediately accessible to the global community.

Peer Review

This journal uses a double-blind peer review process. The identities of authors and reviewers remain concealed from each other throughout the review stage. The editorial team ensures that submitted manuscripts are anonymized before they are sent to reviewers. Authors are not required to anonymize their submissions themselves.

Authors may suggest potential reviewers when submitting their manuscript. These suggestions are taken into consideration but are not binding. Reviewers are selected based on their academic or professional qualifications relevant to the topic of the manuscript and must not have a conflict of interest. Reviewers are expected to evaluate the manuscript’s quality, originality, clarity, and contribution, maintain confidentiality, and provide constructive and objective feedback. Reviewers must not attempt to identify the authors.

Manuscripts are generally reviewed by two or more independent reviewers. Editorial decisions are based on the reviewer reports and the journal’s academic standards.

Conflicts of interest must be disclosed by authors, reviewers, and editors. If a manuscript is submitted by a member of the Editorial Board, the selection of reviewers and the editorial decision are handled by another member of the Editorial Board in order to ensure impartiality. Otherwise, submissions by Editorial Board members are treated the same as any other submission.

Authors are responsible for the accuracy and integrity of the data and arguments presented in their manuscript and must comply with relevant ethical standards. Research involving human or animal subjects must show evidence of appropriate ethical approval where required.

Authors may appeal editorial decisions by submitting a reasoned request. Appeals are reviewed by an editor who was not involved in the original decision. Complaints or concerns regarding ethical or procedural issues are handled in line with established academic publishing standards.

The journal is committed to fairness, academic integrity, and transparency in its review process.

Open Access, Copyright, Licensing

This journal operates on an Open Access basis. All articles are made available immediately upon publication in PDF format, free of charge and without subscription barriers. Users are permitted to download, print, copy, and otherwise use the articles for any lawful purpose, provided that the terms of the license are followed.

Authors retain full copyright and publishing rights for their articles without any restrictions. The submitting author confirms that the manuscript is original and authored by them and any listed co-authors. Where the manuscript includes text, figures, data, or other material from third-party sources, the submitting author affirms that all necessary permissions have been obtained.

All articles in this journal are published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0). This license allows users to share and adapt the material in a reasonable manner, provided that appropriate credit is given to the original author(s) and that any changes are clearly indicated. Users may not impose additional legal or technological restrictions and must make the work available under the same license (CC BY 4.0).

Plagiarism Screening

All manuscripts submitted to IJADA are checked for plagiarism using advanced detection tools. Any form of academic dishonesty, including duplication, unattributed copying, or falsification, is grounds for rejection. Confirmed cases of plagiarism lead to exclusion from future submissions, and in severe cases, to public disclosure of the misconduct. This strict approach ensures the integrity of the publication process and protects the value of original scholarship.

Publication Frequency

IJADA is published twice a year and operates a continuous publication model. Once articles are accepted and finalised, they are immediately placed in the current issue, ensuring timely and efficient dissemination of research findings.
