Review process

Each manuscript undergoes peer review according to the following procedures:

Initial manuscript assessment. The editors first assess all manuscripts. In many cases, at this stage, editors return the manuscript to the authors if it does not meet the interests of the journal and the expected level of quality. Manuscripts that meet the minimum criteria are typically forwarded to at least two reviewers.

Types of professional review. Osijek Mathematical Gazette conducts single-blind peer review, where the reviewer is unknown to the author, but the author’s identity is known to the reviewer.

Final report. The reviewers advise the editors. The editorial decision to accept or reject the manuscript will be promptly communicated to the author, along with appropriately detailed explanations.

The editorial decision is final. The editors are responsible for the final decision to accept or reject the manuscript; in that case, the process concludes.
