Edunomia: Jurnal Ilmiah Pendidikan Ekonomi is committed to upholding the highest standards of publication ethics and takes all necessary steps to prevent and address any form of publication malpractice. The editorial team holds primary responsibility for ensuring the integrity, transparency, and quality of the publication process. Any form of unethical behavior, including plagiarism and other types of academic misconduct, is strictly prohibited.

By submitting a manuscript to Edunomia, authors confirm that their work is original and has not been previously published, either in whole or in part, in any language. Authors also declare that the manuscript is not currently under consideration by any other journal.

All parties involved in the publication process—editors, authors, and reviewers—are expected to adhere to established ethical standards in scholarly publishing, as guided by the principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics Code of Conduct and Core Practices.

1. Reviewing Procedure

1.1 Peer Reviewers

Edunomia: Jurnal Ilmiah Pendidikan Ekonomi implements a double-blind peer review system for all submitted manuscripts. Each manuscript is typically reviewed by at least one or two reviewers who have relevant expertise in the field. Reviewers work independently and are not aware of each other’s identities, nor the identity of the authors.

Reviewers are selected based on their academic competence and must not have any conflict of interest with the authors, including being from the same institution or having recent research collaborations. The journal does not accept reviewer suggestions from authors.

The main purpose of the peer review process is to support the Editorial Board in making publication decisions, while also helping authors improve the quality and clarity of their manuscripts.

1.2 Peer Review Process

All submitted manuscripts undergo an initial screening by the editorial team to assess their compliance with the journal’s scope and formatting guidelines. Only manuscripts that pass this stage will be sent for peer review.

Under normal circumstances, the review process takes approximately 4–8 weeks. The total time from submission to publication may vary depending on the revision process and editorial decisions.

During the review process, the Editor-in-Chief may request additional data or supporting materials from the authors if needed. All such materials will be treated confidentially and used solely for evaluation purposes.

1.3 Resolving Review Discrepancies

If authors raise well-founded concerns regarding the review results, the Editorial Board will evaluate the objectivity and quality of the review. If necessary, additional reviewers may be assigned.

Additional reviewers may also be involved if there are significantly conflicting recommendations between reviewers. The final decision regarding manuscript acceptance rests solely with the Editor-in-Chief.
