Our Editorial Commitment
Presser Review operates under a single-blind peer review model managed by the editorial team. All Flagship Articles undergo review by at least two independent experts. Advisory Board members may serve as reviewers, but final publication decisions rest solely with the Editor-in-Chief.
We adhere to the **Core Practices of the Committee on Publication Ethics **(COPE) and welcome contributions that center knowledge beyond dominant Western paradigms.
