Duration of manuscript handling phases
Duration first review round, tot. handling time acc. manuscripts, decision time immediate rejection, average number of review rounds, difficulty of reviewer comments, average number of review reports, characteristics of peer review process, quality of review reports, overall rating manuscript handling, latest review.
Outcome: Drawn back.
Motivation: I am writing my personal experience with this journal. This journal kept your article in coma for at least one year (on the name of ‘under review “). This journal never replies to author queries. The editor does not cross check to whom he is sending reviewer request (They sent reviewer request to me to review my own paper!!!). Even after clarifying that I am the corresponding author for the manuscript, the editor did not reply to my mail. After waiting for one year 3 months, finally I wrote a mail to editor that I am withdrawing my manuscript due to inordinate delay in processing the manuscript. Again no reply from editor !!! The editorial staff of this journal does not reply to author queries.
Excellent process

I was very happy with the prompt and clear communication with Kathryn and her team at LetPub. We needed to get a journal cover published on a quick turnaround and they offered the best price point and clearest communication of turnaround times I could find. The journal cover itself was FANTASTIC! I’m happy to recommend them (and use them!) for future journal covers.

Viktor Kukhar Ural State Agrarian University
We prepared a scientific publication and sent it to a scientific journal, but there were problems with the English language. The editors of this journal recommended LetPub’s services, so we decided to give LetPub a try. Office Coordinator Marise Facher was very responsive and answered all questions. The specialists at LetPub performed very good work on our article. They amended the text and provided explanations. Very good service. Many thanks!
Qiang Jiang Australian National University
I am an economist and wrote an article about health policies for COVID-19. Life under the virus has been very difficult. The help from LetPub made me feel there was a silver lining. Actually, I was very emotional when I received the file from LetPub! I take pride in my articles and I've never used LetPub's services before, so it was an opportunity and an uncertain risk for me as well, which paid off. LetPub's work is excellent and you can trust their services.
Jeff Sugarman Ural State Agrarian University
Manuscript title:Neoliberalism and the Ethics of Psychology I required a document reformatted to conform with the publisher’s specifications and contracted with LetPub for the job. I was absolutely delighted with the service provided. Marise was thorough and detailed and, as exacting as I am, she even managed to find a couple of things I had overlooked. I would most certainly hire Marise should I require any editing services in the future and strongly recommend her to others. Thanks for your superb work!
Dr. Lai Wei Capital Normal University
LetPub is very responsible. The entire process was pleasant, and the business manager’s attitude was very good. If there was any problem, the manager would provide feedback and help with the consultation. The service was also highly efficient: From sending the manuscript through editing to sending it back, the whole process took less than a week. The modification process is also very serious. Small articles, singular and plural nouns, punctuation, and sentence structure were all edited very carefully…
