Submission FAQs for Authors
The following Frequently Asked Questions are designed to guide authors through the manuscript submission, review, and publication process across all journals published by Nexa Publications (NexaPub). Authors are encouraged to read this section carefully before preparing and submitting their manuscripts.
1. How do I submit my manuscript? +
Manuscripts must be submitted electronically through the official submission system available on the
respective journal’s website under the Nexa Publications platform. Authors are required to create an
account, complete the submission form, upload the manuscript and supplementary files, and confirm
compliance with journal policies before final submission.
2. What types of manuscripts are accepted? +
Nexa Publications accepts a wide range of manuscript types, including original research articles,
review articles, conceptual and theoretical papers, case studies, technical notes, short communications,
methodological papers, and editorials. Authors should consult the specific journal’s scope and author
guidelines before submission.
3. Can I submit the same manuscript to more than one journal? +
No. Simultaneous submission of the same manuscript to more than one journal is strictly prohibited.
Submissions must be exclusive to Nexa Publications until an editorial decision is communicated.
Violations may result in immediate rejection.
4. What is the peer review process? +
All manuscripts undergo an initial editorial screening followed by peer review. Depending on the journal,
this may involve single-blind, double-blind, or open peer review. Independent reviewers evaluate the
manuscript’s originality, methodology, clarity, ethical compliance, and contribution to the field.
5. How long does the review process take? +
Review timelines vary by journal and discipline. On average, authors can expect an initial editorial
decision within a few weeks. Nexa Publications strives to ensure timely, fair, and constructive reviews
without compromising quality.
6. Are there publication fees? +
Some journals under Nexa Publications charge article processing charges (APCs), while others operate
without publication fees. All applicable fees are clearly disclosed on the journal’s website prior
to submission.
7. How do I make payment for publication fees? +
Payment instructions are provided after manuscript acceptance. Authors may pay through approved
payment channels listed on the journal’s website. Nexa Publications does not request payment before
peer review is completed.
8. What happens if my manuscript requires revisions? +
If revisions are required, authors will receive detailed reviewer and editor comments. Revised
manuscripts must be resubmitted within the specified timeframe and should include a response-to-reviewers
document outlining how comments were addressed.
9. What licensing and copyright terms apply to my article? +
Licensing and copyright terms depend on the journal’s publication model. Open access articles are
typically published under Creative Commons licenses. Authors retain appropriate rights while granting
Nexa Publications permission to publish and distribute the work.
10. How will my article be disseminated after publication? +
Published articles are made available on the journal’s website and may be indexed in scholarly
databases and repositories. Nexa Publications promotes wide visibility and accessibility to enhance
academic impact.
11. Can I withdraw my manuscript after submission? +
Manuscript withdrawal requests must be submitted in writing to the editorial office. Withdrawal is
subject to editorial approval and may not be permitted once peer review or production has commenced.
12. How do I handle corrections or errors in a published article? +
Authors should promptly notify the editorial office if errors are identified after publication.
Corrections, expressions of concern, or retractions are handled in accordance with best publishing
practices to preserve the scholarly record.
