Peer Review Process
All manuscripts are treated as confidential. They are peer-reviewed by two or three anonymous reviewers selected by the Editor and Associate Editors. The (Associate) Editor selects two or three reviewers who have expertise in the area associated with the submitted manuscript. If the review results from the reviewers are in conflict, the manuscript will be sent to the third reviewer. The final recommendation on the manuscript is made by the editorial board. Letters to the Editor are reviewed and published on the decision of the editor. The corresponding author is notified as soon as possible of the editor's decision to accept, reject, or request revision of manuscripts. When the final revised manuscript is completely acceptable according to the JDAAT format and criteria, it is scheduled for publication in the next available issue.
