Peer Review Process

Peer Review Policy: 

The Journal of Mental Health and Substance Abuse follows a single-blind peer-review process with a minimum of two reviews for each article type. All articles will undergo single-blind peer review by two subject experts. Final publication decisions are made by the editorial team based on scientific quality, ethical standards, originality, and clinical relevance.

Note: Single-blind peer review is a conventional method where the authors do not know who the reviewers are, but the reviewers know who the authors are.
