The Peer Review system is an important component of maintaining the quality of academic publications in mathematics and statistics.

For IJFRMS, there is a double-blind peer review system, where both the author's name and the reviewer’s name are hidden in the review process.

Reviewers Should Consider

Reviewers are encouraged to evaluate:

• Originality of the research.
• Relevance to mathematics or statistics.
• Clarity of the research problem.
• Soundness of mathematical reasoning.
• Appropriateness of methodology.
• Correctness of calculations and analysis.
• Quality of statistical methods, where applicable.
• Validity of results.
• Strength of conclusions.
• Relevance and quality of references.
• Overall clarity and organization.

In mathematical papers, reviewers should focus on definitions, assumptions, propositions, theorems, proofs, calculations, and logical soundness.

In statistical papers, the following issues are of additional importance for reviewers: the suitability of the datasets, statistical methods, assumptions, and results interpretation.

Reviewer’s Responsibilities

Reviewers should:

• Maintain confidentiality.
• Be constructive in their comments.
• Avoid personal criticism.
• Identify important academic or methodological concerns.
• Declare conflicts of interest.
• Avoid using unpublished information for personal benefit.
• Complete reviews within the agreed timeframe.

Possible Recommendations

Reviewers may recommend:

• Accept
• Minor Revision
• Major Revision
• Reject

The reviewer provides an academic recommendation, but the final decision remains with the editor.

The journal's current website includes Review Guidelines as a dedicated section under For Authors.
