For the first time since 2017, we are updating our pricing structure to adapt to rising operational costs. Despite our efforts to keep prices stable, this modest change is essential to allow us to uphold the journal’s high standards and ensure a smooth process for authors and referees. We thank authors, referees and readers for your ongoing support and understanding.
The following pricing structure will apply from 1 January 2024:
| Submission Type | Submission fee | Refund for desk rejection | Refund for decision over 14 days | Refund for decision over 100 days |
