Author Guidelines
Submission, Initial Assessment, and Peer Review
Pinisi Physics Journal (PPJ) has a fully web-based system for the submission and review of manuscripts. Submissions should be prepared according to the Author Guidelines and uploaded to Link Manuscripts may be returned to authors without a scientific assessment if they do not meet all submission requirements, if they are not in the correct format, or cannot be downloaded reliably.
Submitted manuscripts must be the original and independent work of the authors. Each submitted manuscript will be reviewed by one or more editors to determine whether it falls within the scope of PPJ. We will reject a manuscript without review if it contains inadequate content; has no clear application; is primarily concerned with the development of science and technology; has substantive problems with design, methodology, or data quality; exceeds our prescribed word limit or is incorrectly formatted; is poorly presented and unclear.
Manuscripts that pass the initial review will be assigned to a subject matter expert within our team of Associate Editors to oversee the review process. All manuscripts are subject to peer review and authors can expect a decision, or an explanation for the delay, within one month of receipt. In case of revisions, the corresponding author should submit the revised manuscript within 2 weeks. The final decision is taken by one of the senior editors based on the information obtained through the peer review process.
Types of decisions: Decline, Resubmit, Revision, Accept
Decline
Following peer review, the paper is judged not to be acceptable for publication in Cakrawala Pendidikan and resubmission is not possible.
Resubmit
The submitted version of the paper is not acceptable and requires major revision but there is clear potential in the work and Cakrawala Pendidikan is prepared to consider a new version. Authors are offered the opportunity to resubmit their paper as a new submission. Concerns will remain regarding the suitability of the paper for publication until the editors are convinced by the authors that their paper fits the scope and standards of Cakrawala Pendidikan. The resubmitted manuscript will be returned to the original associate editor if at all possible.
Revision
The paper requires changes before a final decision can be made. Authors are asked to modify their manuscript in light of comments received from referees and editors and to submit a new version for consideration within 2 weeks of receiving the decision letter. A point-by-point explanation of how comments have been addressed must be supplied with the revised version of the paper. Revisions may undergo further peer review and papers may undergo more than one round of revision. If the authors do not revise their papers to the satisfaction of the editors, the paper can still be declined from publication in Cakrawala Pendidikan.
Final acceptance
The paper is acceptable for publication, subject to conditions that need to be addressed in producing a final version of the manuscript. These may include sub-editing changes and minor amendments to ensure the paper fully matches our criteria. After final checking in the editorial office, acceptance is confirmed and the paper is forwarded to the publishers for publication.
