Peer Reviewed

Peer Review Process

Every submitted paper is independently reviewed by at least two peer-reviewers. Decision for publication, amendment, or rejection is based upon their reports/recommendation. If two or more reviewers consider a manuscript unsuitable for publication in this journal, a statement explaining the basis for the decision will be sent to the authors within six months of the submission date.

The suggested decision will be evaluated in an editorial board meeting. Afterwards, the editor will send the final decision to the corresponding author. Utilizing feedback from the peer review process, the Editor will make a final publication decision. The review process will take approximately 4 to 12 weeks. Decisions categories include:

Reject - Rejected manuscripts will not be published and authors will not have the opportunity to resubmit a revised version of the manuscript to Journal of JERS.
Resubmit for Review– The submission needs to be re-worked, but with significant changes, may be accepted. However, It will require a second round of review.
Accept wtih Revisions - Manuscripts receiving an accept-pending-revisions decision will be published in Journal of JERS under the condition that minor/major modifications are made. Revisions will be reviewed by an editor to ensure necessary updates are made prior to publication.
Accept - Accepted manuscripts will be published in the current form with no further modifications required.

Publication Ethic

Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement

Duties of Authors

Reporting Standards: Authors should present an accurate account of the original research performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. Researchers should present their results honestly and without fabrication, falsification or inappropriate data manipulation. A manuscript should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Manuscripts should follow the submission guidelines of the journal.
Originality and Plagiarism: Authors must ensure that they have written entirely original work. The manuscript should not be submitted concurrently to more than one publication unless the editors have agreed to co-publication. Relevant previous work and publications, both by other researchers and the authors’ own, should be properly acknowledged and referenced. The primary literature should be cited where possible. Original wording taken directly from publications by other researchers should appear in quotation marks with the appropriate citations.
Multiple, Redundant, or Concurrent Publications: Author should not in general submit the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently. It is also expected that the author will not publish redundant manuscripts or manuscripts describing same research in more than one journal. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Multiple publications arising from a single research project should be clearly identified as such and the primary publication should be referenced
Acknowledgement of Sources: Authors should acknowledge all sources of data used in the research and cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work. Proper acknowledgment of the work of others must always be given.
Authorship of the Paper: The authorship of research publications should accurately reflect individuals’ contributions to the work and its reporting. Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to conception, design, execution or interpretation of the reported study. Others who have made significant contribution must be listed as co-authors. In cases where major contributors are listed as authors while those who made less substantial, or purely technical, contributions to the research or to the publication are listed in an acknowledgement section. Authors also ensure that all the authors have seen and agreed to the submitted version of the manuscript and their inclusion of names as co-authors.
Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest: All authors should clearly disclose in their manuscript any financial or other substantive conflict of interest that might be construed to influence the results or interpretation of their manuscript. All sources of financial support for the project should be disclosed.
Fundamental Errors in Published Works: If the author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in the submitted manuscript, then the author should promptly notify the journal editor or publisher and cooperate with the editor to retract or correct the paper.
Hazards and Human or Animal Subjects: The author should clearly identify in the manuscript if the work involves chemicals, procedures or equipment that have any unusual hazards inherent in their use.

Duties of Editor

Publication Decisions: Based on the review report of the editorial board, the editor can accept, reject, or request modifications to the manuscript. The validation of the work in question and its importance to researchers and readers must always drive such decisions. The editors may be guided by the policies of the journal's editorial board and constrained by such legal requirements as shall then be in force regarding libel, copyright infringement and plagiarism. The editors may confer with other editors or reviewers in making this decision. Editors have to take responsibility for everything they publish and should have procedures and policies in place to ensure the quality of the material they publish and maintain the integrity of the published record.
Review of Manuscripts: Editor must ensure that each manuscript is initially evaluated by the editor for originality. The editor should organize and use peer review fairly and wisely. Editors should explain their peer review processes in the information for authors and also indicate which parts of the journal are peer reviewed. Editor should use appropriate peer reviewers for papers that are considered for publication by selecting people with sufficient expertise and avoiding those with conflicts of interest.
Fair Play: The editor must ensure that each manuscript received by the journal is reviewed for its intellectual content without regard to sex, gender, race, religion, citizenship, etc. of the authors. An important part of the responsibility to make fair and unbiased decisions is the upholding of the principle of editorial independence and integrity. Editors are in a powerful position by making decisions on publications, which makes it very important that this process is as fair and unbiased as possible.
Confidentiality: The editor must ensure that information regarding manuscripts submitted by the authors is kept confidential. Editors should critically assess any potential breaches of data protection and patient confidentiality. This includes requiring properly informed consent for the actual research presented, consent for publication where applicable.
Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest: The editor of the Journal will not use unpublished materials disclosed in a submitted manuscript for his own research without written consent of the author. Editors should not be involved in decisions about papers in which they have a conflict of interest

Duties of Reviewers

Confidentiality: Information regarding manuscripts submitted by authors should be kept confidential and be treated as privileged information. They must not be shown to or discussed with others except as authorized by the editor.
Acknowledgement of Sources: Reviewers must ensure that authors have acknowledged all sources of data used in the research. Reviewers should identify relevant published work that has not been cited by the authors. Any statement that an observation, derivation, or argument had been previously reported should be accompanied by the relevant citation. The reviewers should notify the journal immediately if they come across any irregularities, have concerns about ethical aspects of the work, are aware of substantial similarity between the manuscript and a concurrent submission to another journal or a published article, or suspect that misconduct may have occurred during either the research or the writing and submission of the manuscript; reviewers should, however, keep their concerns confidential and not personally investigate further unless the journal asks for further information or advice.
Standards of Objectivity: Review of submitted manuscripts must be done objectively and the reviewers should express their views clearly with supporting arguments. The reviewers should follow journals’ instructions on the specific feedback that is required of them and, unless there are good reasons not to. The reviewers should be constructive in their reviews and provide feedback that will help the authors to improve their manuscript. The reviewer should make clear which suggested additional investigations are essential to support claims made in the manuscript under consideration and which will just strengthen or extend the work
Disclosure and Conflict of Interest: Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers. In the case of double-blind review, if they suspect the identity of the author(s) notify the journal if this knowledge raises any potential conflict of interest.
Promptness: The reviewers should respond in a reasonable time-frame. The reviewers only agree to review a manuscript if they are fairly confident they can return a review within the proposed or mutually agreed time-frame, informing the journal promptly if they require an extension. In the event that a reviewer feels it is not possible for him/her to complete review of manuscript within stipulated time then this information must be communicated to the editor, so that the manuscript could be sent to another reviewer.

Anti-plagiarism policy

All articles sent to JERS must be the original work of the author or be free of plagiarism. Articles sent to JERS have never been and have not been posted in any media. The author is responsible for the authenticity of the manuscript sent. All incoming manuscripts will be authenticated to prevent plagiarism by using Turnitin or anti-plagiarism software up to 25%.

Generative AI

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Guidance for Authors

These guidelines are designed to help you use AI (Artificial Intelligence) tools responsibly while ensuring that your work meets academic, ethical, and professional standards. As an author, you are always responsible for the originality, accuracy, and integrity of your work. Any use of Generative AI (GenAI) and/or AI-assisted technologies should be acknowledged explicitly and documented appropriately in a Disclosure section of the manuscript.

What is Generative AI (GenAI)?

Generative AI (GenAI) refers to tools that can create or produce content, such as text, images, or data, based on input you give them. Examples of GenAI include language tools like ChatGPT (which can write or suggest text) or tools that generate images like DALL-E. It's important to be careful with how you use these tools to make sure the work stays original and reflects your own ideas and research.

When You Can Use AI Tools (With Permission and Citation)

What You’re Doing	When It’s Okay to Use AI (with Permission and Citation)	When It’s Not Okay to Use AI
Proofreading and Editing	AI can help with checking spelling, grammar, or suggesting improvements in writing style. For example, using tools like Grammarly or Hemingway Editor.	AI cannot be used to rewrite important sections of your manuscript, such as the introduction or argument. The core academic work should be your own.
Organizing References and Citations	You can use AI tools for organizing references, creating citations, or formatting your bibliography (e.g., Zotero, EndNote).	AI should not be used to decide which sources to include or to assess the quality of references. You are responsible for ensuring your references are relevant and accurate.
Generating Ideas and Inspiration	AI can help you brainstorm ideas or give prompts to start a paragraph or section (e.g., ChatGPT, Jasper). Remember to disclose: If you use AI for ideas or prompts, make sure to explain which tool you used and how you used it.	AI should not be used to create the main ideas, arguments, or analysis in your manuscript. Those should be based on your own research and thinking.
Creating Visuals and Graphics	AI can help you create visuals like charts, diagrams, or illustrations if they are supplementary to your work (e.g., Canva, DALL-E). Remember to disclose: Clearly state if AI was used to generate visuals, and describe what it contributed.	AI cannot be used to generate or interpret data or research findings. Visuals should not replace the essential work of the research or analysis you have done.
Data Collection and Analysis	AI tools can help you with organizing or automating basic tasks in data collection or sorting through large amounts of data (e.g., AI data mining tools). Remember to disclose: You must explain how the AI helped you collect or analyze data.	AI cannot interpret your research findings or replace your role in analyzing or making sense of the data. You are responsible for making conclusions from your research.
Writing the Content	Not Allowed: AI cannot be used to write substantial parts of your manuscript, such as the introduction, research argument, or conclusions.	Do not use AI to write or generate important sections of your academic manuscript. You must provide the core content, analysis, and ideas.

General Guidelines for Using AI Tools

Be Transparent: Always tell readers what AI tools you used and how they helped you. If you used an AI tool for generating ideas, creating visuals, or anything else, it must be clearly stated in the Disclosure section of your manuscript.
Disclosure Section: When you use AI tools, you need to explain:

Which AI tools you used (e.g., ChatGPT, DALL-E).
What you used them for (e.g., "AI helped with organizing references" or "AI provided writing suggestions").
Make it clear that AI did not create the core content or research in your manuscript.

Academic Integrity: AI tools cannot replace your responsibility to produce original academic content. If you use an AI tool, make sure that the main arguments, research, and conclusions come from your own work and are not generated by AI.
AI and Authorship: AI cannot be listed as an author on your manuscript. AI tools do not have the ability to take responsibility for the content or its academic rigor. Only humans who contributed directly to the manuscript’s intellectual work can be listed as authors.
Ethical Use of AI: Make sure that you use AI tools ethically. This means not using AI to create fake or misleading content, plagiarize, or misrepresent data. AI should only assist you with tasks that enhance the research or manuscript development process, not replace your own intellectual contributions.

Author Responsibility

You, as the author, are responsible for ensuring that all work submitted is original, accurate, and free from ethical issues. This means you must:

Be transparent about how AI was used in the creation of your manuscript.
Make sure the AI did not generate the core academic work (e.g., arguments, research, analysis).
Follow these guidelines to ensure your work meets the highest standards of academic integrity.

For More Information: You may refer to the COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) guidelines for more details on the use of AI tools in research publications.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Guidance for Reviewers

While Gen AI has potential benefits, Journal of Education and Religious Studies expects that reviewers will offer their own (human) feedback on manuscripts and protect the intellectual property of authors by not uploading manuscripts into AI tools. We value the perspectives and experiences our reviewers bring to the peer review process.

Retraction and Corrections Policies

Journal of Education and Religious Studies is committed to upholding the highest standards of academic integrity, ensuring that all published articles are reliable, accurate, and free from misconduct. In cases where errors, ethical violations, or other issues are identified in a published article, the journal will follow a comprehensive retraction, withdrawal, and correction process under the guidelines established by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

Retraction Policy

Journal of Education and Religious Studies will consider retracting an article under the following circumstances:

Fabrication, Falsification, or Misleading Data: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data or contains errors that cannot be corrected through a simple correction, a retraction will be initiated.
Plagiarism: If an article is discovered to have plagiarised content, whether from other sources or within the same manuscript.
Duplicate Publication: If the article has been published elsewhere without proper disclosure or permission.
Unethical Research: If the research reported violates ethical standards, such as the use of data without consent or research conducted without appropriate ethical approval.
Conflicts of Interest: If the author(s) failed to disclose a major competing interest that, in the editor's view, could have unduly influenced the interpretation of the findings.

In the case of retraction, the following steps will be taken:

A retraction notice will be published on the article’s page, clearly identifying the article as retracted and stating the reason(s) for retraction.
A retraction watermark will be added to the article PDF, indicating that it has been retracted.
The HTML version of the article will be removed or replaced with a retraction notice.
The retraction notice will be linked to the original article wherever possible.
Retraction notices will be published promptly and made freely available to all readers.

Article Withdrawal Policy

An article may be withdrawn before publication if any of the following issues arise:

Author's Request: Authors may request the withdrawal of their article at any stage of the process. However, if the manuscript has already undergone significant editorial or peer review work, the author will be required to pay a fee of IDR 500,000 to cover the journal's costs.
Scientific Misconduct or Errors: If it becomes evident that the article contains significant errors or is a result of unethical research practices (e.g., self-plagiarism, fraudulent data), the article may be withdrawn by the editorial board.
Infringement of Ethical Guidelines: Articles may be withdrawn due to violations such as double submissions, false claims of authorship, or plagiarism.

Withdrawn articles will be flagged as such, with a note explaining the reason for withdrawal, and included in the journal's records.

Correction Policy

Journal of Education and Religious Studies will issue a correction if:

Minor Errors: If a published article contains minor errors that do not affect the overall findings but may mislead the reader (e.g., typographical errors, incorrect references).
Authorship Issues: If there is a mistake in the authorship list, such as omitting a deserving author or incorrectly including someone who did not meet authorship criteria.
Data or Methodology Updates: If there is a need to update data, methodology, or any other part of the article to reflect a more accurate account.

Corrections will be published as an erratum, and the corrected version of the article will be updated in both the HTML and PDF formats. The correction notice will clearly indicate the part of the article that has been corrected.

Post-Publication Ethics and Dispute Resolution

Suppose an author, reviewer, or any party involved in the publication process has concerns regarding an article’s retraction, withdrawal, or correction. In that case, they may submit a formal appeal to the editorial board. All appeals will be reviewed based on the evidence provided and in line with Journal of Education and Religious Studies’s publication ethics policies.

The editorial board will cooperate with the author(s) to resolve disputes promptly and fairly, in accordance with COPE guidelines. If necessary, an investigation will be conducted to ensure that the publication process adhered to ethical standards.

Legal and Ethical Considerations

In cases of retraction or removal due to legal issues, such as copyright infringement, defamation, or privacy violations, the article will be removed from the online platform, but metadata such as the title and authors will be retained. In such cases, a screen will appear on the article's page, notifying readers that the article has been removed for legal reasons.

This policy is designed to uphold the integrity of the scholarly work published in Journal of Education and Religious Studies, ensuring that any errors, misconduct, or violations are addressed in a transparent and ethical manner, while maintaining the trust of the research community.

Electronic Archiving and Digital Preservation

The Journal of Education and Religious Studies (JERS) does not yet use the Public Knowledge Project Preservation Network (PKP PN) as an external digital archiving service; archiving is currently done internally. An external archiving service will be implemented in 2027 on a regular basis through the PKP PN.
