The Need for Registration Before Submitting Articles
Registration before submitting articles is necessary for several reasons, primarily involving organization, security, and the quality of the peer review process.
Registration ensures that authors are properly identified and linked to their articles. This is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the submission and review process. By registering, authors provide up-to-date contact information, facilitating communication with the editorial team and reviewers. Additionally, registration helps journals track and prevent duplicate or multiple submissions by the same author.
Registration also ensures that only legitimate authors submit articles, preventing anonymous or fraudulent submissions. It helps avoid conflicts of interest during peer review. Journals can better manage submission workflows and plan reviews based on their editorial capacities and available resources. Furthermore, it allows journals to collect data about authors, such as institutional affiliation, publication history, and other relevant metrics.
In line with academic best practices, submitting research requires agreeing to terms and conditions, including those related to research ethics and integrity. Registration not only provides the opportunity to accept the journal's terms but also allows authors to track the status of their submissions and receive notifications about the editorial process.
