Important Notice regarding the submission

2020-05-21

Due the massive spam and junk questions related to slot publication and timeframe of publication, the Editorial Team of Jurnal Studi Komunikasi remind to all our prospective author and reader.

All manuscripts are considered to be confidential and are reviewed by the editors, members of the editorial board, or qualified ad hoc reviewers.

When a manuscript is submitted to the journal, it is given a submission number (e.g., 2050) and assigned to one of the editors. (Always refer to this submission number in communications with the Principal Contact.) From there it is assigned to at least one independent experts for peer review. A double-blind review, where authors’ identities are not known to reviewers, is applied. It is the responsibility of the corresponding author to inform the coauthors of the manuscript's status throughout the submission, review, and publication processes. The reviewers operate under strict guidelines set forth in our policies and are expected to complete their reviews expeditiously.

The corresponding author is notified, generally 6 to 12 weeks after submission, of the editor's decision to accept, reject, or require modification. When modification is requested, the corresponding author must either submit the modified version within one weeks or withdraw the manuscript. A point-by-point response to the reviews must be uploaded as a separate file (identified as such), and a compare copy of the manuscript (with figures) should be included as a Marked Up Manuscript if the editor requested one.

Manuscripts that have been rejected with the option to resubmit, or withdrawn after being returned for modification, may be resubmitted to the same journal if the major criticisms have been addressed. .

For all resubmissions, the cover letter must state that the manuscript is a resubmission, and should be submit into Author version. A point-by-point response to the review(s) must be uploaded as a separate file (identified as such), and a copy of the revised manuscript tracking the changes must be included as a Marked Up Manuscript. Manuscripts resubmitted to the same journal are normally handled by the original editor. Rejected manuscripts may be resubmitted only once unless permission has been obtained from the original editor or from the editor in chief.

Jurnal Studi Komunikasi no longer answer the question regarding slot of publication and timeframe of publication. Please keep in mind the publication to journal needs enough time for Review, editing, and publication stage.
