2. Journal Management Structure

The management structure of SCIENTIA: Journal of Multi-Disciplinary Science distinguishes publishing and operational responsibilities from scholarly editorial responsibilities. This structure is intended to support effective journal administration, rigorous manuscript evaluation, and independent editorial decision-making.

01 Publisher

PT Sangadji Media Publishing is responsible for the journal's publishing infrastructure, administrative coordination, platform support, and overall organizational framework. The publisher supports the continuity and sustainability of the journal while respecting the editorial team's responsibility for scholarly content and editorial decisions.

02 Editor-in-Chief and Editorial Board

The Editor-in-Chief and Editorial Board oversee the journal's editorial policies, academic direction, manuscript evaluation, reviewer selection, editorial decisions, and overall scholarly quality. They are responsible for ensuring that editorial decisions are made fairly and consistently in accordance with the journal's scope, publication standards, and ethical policies.

03 Section Editors

Section Editors, where appointed, manage manuscripts within their assigned subject areas. Their responsibilities may include coordinating the review process, identifying suitable reviewers, monitoring reviewer reports, and providing editorial recommendations to the Editor-in-Chief or other authorized editors.

04 Reviewers

Reviewers provide independent scholarly assessments of submitted manuscripts within their areas of expertise. Their evaluations help the editorial team assess originality, academic contribution, methodological quality, clarity, and ethical compliance. Reviewers provide recommendations, while final editorial decisions remain the responsibility of the authorized editors.

3. Editorial Independence and Decision-Making

Editorial independence is a fundamental principle of SCIENTIA: Journal of Multi-Disciplinary Science. Decisions concerning the evaluation, revision, acceptance, or rejection of manuscripts are based on their academic merit, originality, relevance to the journal's scope, methodological rigor, contribution to knowledge, and compliance with research and publication ethics.

The Editor-in-Chief and authorized editors are responsible for making editorial decisions, taking into account peer-review reports, the quality of the manuscript, and the journal's editorial policies. The publisher does not determine the acceptance or rejection of individual manuscripts solely on the basis of commercial interests, personal relationships, institutional affiliations, or other considerations unrelated to scholarly merit.

Ownership of the journal does not, in itself, determine editorial outcomes. The publisher supports the journal's operational needs while respecting the editorial team's authority over scholarly evaluation and publication decisions. Editors and reviewers are expected to disclose relevant conflicts of interest and to withdraw from assignments when their impartiality may reasonably be compromised.

4. Transparency and Accountability

SCIENTIA: Journal of Multi-Disciplinary Science is committed to providing clear and accessible information about its ownership, publishing organization, editorial structure, editorial policies, peer-review procedures, and publication ethics. This information enables authors, reviewers, readers, and other stakeholders to understand the journal's governance and the responsibilities of the parties involved in its publishing activities.

The publisher and editorial team are expected to act within their respective responsibilities, maintain appropriate accountability, and address concerns in accordance with the journal's policies. These arrangements are intended to support editorial continuity, responsible publishing practices, and confidence in the integrity of the scholarly record.

Commitment to Responsible Publishing

SCIENTIA: Journal of Multi-Disciplinary Science strives to maintain transparent ownership, accountable management, and independent scholarly editorial decision-making. Through a clear division of responsibilities between the publisher and the editorial team, the journal seeks to uphold academic integrity, promote responsible publishing, and maintain public trust in scholarly communication.
