Peer review, formal requirements
The journal is published following an expert peer review process. Manuscripts intended for the STUDIES section are reviewed in anonymized form by two reviewers who are experts in the field and hold at least a PhD degree (double-blind peer review) according to a predetermined set of criteria. Manuscripts by members of the editorial board are anonymized and sent for review according to the same procedure as for external authors. (The review form template can be downloaded here.) If the two reviewers disagree, the editorial board will ask a third reviewer. The Editorial Board reserves the right to conduct a preliminary text consistency check (plagiarism check) on submitted manuscripts. In case of suspected plagiarism, we will refrain from publishing the manuscript.
The members of the editorial board are recognized professionals with PhD degrees in the fields of pedagogy, catechesis, and religious education. From 2026, our journal's citation and publication style will follow the international style of the APA (American Psychological Association, 1984/2019). Detailed formatting requirements can be downloaded by clicking on the STYLE SHEET button.
