Editorial Independence

Every article published by 'CrossLink Studies' undergoes a peer review process, with evaluations conducted by autonomous Editorial Boards. The involvement of 'CrossLink Studies' personnel in manuscript approval processes is explicitly excluded. The criteria for an academic editor's decision include:

• The appropriateness of reviewers chosen for the evaluation;
• The comprehensiveness and relevance of feedback provided by the reviewers, alongside the author's reactions to such feedback;
• The manuscript's overall contribution to scientific knowledge. 

 'CrossLink Studies' is committed across its portfolio and operational activities to a core objective: enhancing the openness and availability of scientific discoveries and research insights for the broadest possible audience in a timely manner.
