Chapter 4. Manuscript for Publication
Article 12. Pursuant to Article 10 as aforementioned, only the manuscript shall be published that has been rated as ‘Published’ (or ‘Published Only After Revisions’) by two referees or more, followed by the Editor-in-chief’s confirmation. As its final decision, the refereed manuscript shall be categorized into one of the following four:
1. Published: The Editor-in-chief shall assume the responsibility of publishing the manuscript after having notified the author that the manuscript is to be published based on this final decision. The author shall be allowed to make minimal corrections only in the area of editing such as typos, wording, and etc.
2. Published Only After Revisions: The Editor-in-chief shall assume the responsibility not only of notifying the author of the recommended revisions to be made based on this final decision, but of publishing the revised manuscript only after the author addressed each of the revisions raised by the referees in an appropriate way.
3. Re-Reviewed After Revisions: This decision shall correspond to a category other than ‘Published,’ ‘Published Only After Revisions,’ or ‘Rejected.’ The Editor-in-chief shall notify the author of the revisions required by the decision from the referees, and request the identical referees to re-review the revised manuscript. During the re-refereeing process, however, the Editor-in-chief may ask different reviewers to referee the revised manuscript circumstantially. The ensuing publication of the revised manuscript is contingent upon the decision from the referees.
4. Rejected: When the manuscript has been rated as ‘Rejected,’ based on the decision from two referees or more, the Editor-in-chief shall assume the responsibility of notifying the author that such a decision was reached.
Article 13. When the contributor raises a question against the decision of ‘Rejected,’ he or she shall be granted only one opportunity to have the manuscript reviewed again. Such an additional re-review is not subject to Article 2 of the regulations. Consequently, the subsequent rating of the manuscript as ‘Published’ as a result of the second review―requested by the contributor―may lead to the postponement of the publication to the next issue of the journal.
Article 14. When the decision to publish the article is made, the author shall send the final article via JAMS system. Hereafter, the author shall not exert any influence over the editorial process. The author is at this point obligated to pay the publication fee set by the Editorial Board.
Article 15. The Editorial Board shall notify the contributor whether or not the manuscript was accepted for publication within 50 days from the deadline for manuscript submission on. The submitted manuscript shall not be returned to the contributor.
Article 16. Only for the article which has been accepted for publication and upon the author’s request, the Editor-in-chief’s written statement may be issued that confirms its planned publication date in the journal.
Article 17. If a necessity arises that involves types of speciality printing regarding photographs, color photographs, plate printing, and etc., the author of the article shall cover actual expenses incurred as a consequence.
Chapter 5. Others
Article 18. The copyright of the article published in the journal shall be given to the author, but the author shall submit a consent form for copyright transfer when he or she submits the article via JAMS system, in which case the copyright shall belong to the Institute for Human Studies of Kyungnam University.
