Scholarly journals are essential for disseminating research results, methodologies, and theoretical frameworks. They undergo a rigorous peer-review process involving blind reviews, where articles may be accepted, revised, or rejected based on their merit. These articles typically feature multiple authors, abstracts, and extensive technical content, often including data and references. Designed for an academic audience, they primarily cater to faculty, graduate students, and professionals in specialized fields, using technical language that reflects a deep understanding of the subject.
