Peer-Review
Review Policy adopted by the chief editor: 26.01.2024.
The editorial board of the journal The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal follows COPE recommendations when working with manuscripts, reviewers, and organizing the review process.
Type of review
All manuscripts submitted to the editorial board of the journal The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal undergo mandatory double-blind peer review. This means that neither the author nor the reviewer knows each other's names and affiliations, and all correspondence is conducted through the editor of the journal The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal. Each manuscript is sent to one or, if necessary two experts.
Review timeline
The review process in the journal The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal takes on average from 2 to 6 months. Within this period, the editorial board includes time for the initial consideration of the manuscript, selection of reviewers, time for preparing the review, time for the author to revise the article and re-review, and involvement of additional experts.
Review Process
The decision to select a reviewer for the journal The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal is made by the editor.
A minimum of two reviewers are assigned to each manuscript. If these two reviewers disagree on the manuscript, the editorial staff may consult a third reviewer.
The Editor of the journal The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal can give the author one of the following decisions on the manuscript:
Acceptance for publication
In this case, the manuscript will proceed to the editing stage and will be published in a future issue of The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal. The author will be informed of the publication date.
Acceptance for publication after revision according to the reviewers’ comments
In this case, the author will be advised to revise the manuscript according to the reviewers’ comments. If the author makes changes according to the reviewers’ comments or presents a reasoned refusal to change the manuscript, the manuscript will be accepted for publication.
Acceptance for publication after revision according to the reviewers’ comments and another round of peer review
In this case, the author will be recommended to revise the manuscript according to the reviewers’ comments. The manuscript will then be sent for a second round of peer review. The author will be informed of the final decision on the manuscript within 30 days.
Rejection
In this case, the manuscript will be rejected, and the author will be informed of the reasons for rejection. Generally, a rejection does not bar authors from submitting other manuscripts to The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal. However, if the rejection is due to serious misconduct, the editor-in-chief may choose to blacklist the authors. As a result, the editorial staff will not consider any further submissions by them.
At The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal, the peer-review process involves three rounds of review. Therefore, if recommended to revise the manuscript according to the reviewers’ comments, the author has two attempts to revise the manuscript or to present a reasoned refusal to change it. If a reviewer is not satisfied after the third round of review, the author will be suggested to consider submitting the manuscript to another journal or resubmitting a revised version in 6 months.
The editorial staff should be informed if the author is unwilling or unable to revise the manuscript.
If the author has a conflicting interest with a potential reviewer, the author should disclose this to the editor. If necessary, the journal’s editorial staff will appoint another peer reviewer.
A conflict of interest between an author and a reviewer may arise during peer review. In such case, the editor has the right to select another reviewer for the manuscript and to appeal to the editor-in-chief for reconciliation.
The editor-in-chief, deputy editors-in-chief, the executive secretary, and Editorial Board members may publish their articles in The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal, provided that they do not abuse their authority. The manuscripts submitted by the authors affiliated with the journal will be assigned for double-blind peer review exclusively to external reviewers. Disagreements and conflicts will be resolved exclusively by external experts. If there are conflicting views regarding a manuscript submitted by the editor-in-chief, the final decision on its publication will be made by the Editorial Board.
The articles submitted by the editor-in-chief, deputy editors-in-chief, and Editorial Board members should indicate the authors’ affiliation with The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal in the Disclosure section.
There are no exceptions to peer review based on the status of the author.
Copies of reviews are kept on file in the editorial office for at least 5 years.
Pool of reviewers
All the submitted manuscripts are reviewed by external reviewers experienced in the relevant field who have published works on the topic of the manuscript under review within the last 3 years.
If the topic of the manuscript is very narrow and/or its author declares a potential conflict of interest with external reviewers, the editors may involve Editorial Board members in the peer-review process.
Reviewer selection principles and measures taken by the editorial staff to ensure high-quality review

Review content and structure
This section follows the recommendations of the National Electronic Information Consortium (NEICON). The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal is allowed to use these methodological recommendations in its review policy.
10 criteria for manuscript evaluation:
– originality;
– logical rigour;
– statistical rigour;
– clarity and conciseness of writing style;
– theoretical significance;
– reliability of the results;
– pertinence to current research in the discipline;
– reproducibility of the results;
– coverage of significant existing literature;
– applicability of the results.
In addition to the Standard Review Form, the editors of the journal recommend using the following review structure.
Comments for editors. The Conflict of Interest section should describe actual or potential conflicts of interest related to the content of the manuscript or its authors, which may lead to a biased conclusion. The Confidential Comments section is intended for comments that will not be sent to the author. It should include the reviewer’s conclusion on the manuscript, assumptions, concerns about potential ethical issues, recommendations, and comments (e.g., the reviewer may advise the editor to request additional information from the author). The Proposed Decision section should contain a brief recommendation on manuscript publication (i.e., “accept for publication”, “accept for publication after minor revision”, “accept for publication after major revision”, “reject”, “reject and invite the author to resubmit the manuscript for reconsideration”).
Comments for authors. The Introduction section should contain the main conclusions and describe the value of the article to readers. The Main Comments section is intended for comments on the relevance of the article to the aims and objectives of The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal and on the level of credibility and ethical conduct of the research. Comments on individual sections (i.e., the Abstract, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, and Discussion sections), pages, paragraphs, or lines of the manuscript are given in the Specific Comments section. The Recommendations for the Author section should include the reviewer’s suggestions for improving the manuscript and, possibly, future research. The Concluding Comments section should briefly describe the strengths and weaknesses of the manuscript without giving any additional recommendations.
Manuscript evaluation criteria
Relevance to the journal. The reviewer should not waste their time reviewing irrelevant manuscripts, regardless of the quality of such manuscripts. Therefore, the first step is to determine whether the manuscript to be reviewed is pertinent to the subject area of The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal and relevant to the interests of the journal’s target audience.
Soundness. Does the work meet the necessary requirements for the study design, methods, structure, content, and depth of analysis? Does the author adhere to the principle of impartiality? Are the results reproducible? Is the study sample adequate? Has the author analysed the sample in sufficient detail to be able to make generalisations from the study findings?
Novelty. Has the research contributed anything new to the relevant subject area?
Soundness. Does the work meet the necessary requirements for the study design, methods, structure, content, and depth of analysis? Does the author adhere to the principle of impartiality? Are the results reproducible? Is the study sample adequate? Has the author analysed the sample in sufficient detail to be able to make generalisations from the study findings?
Novelty. Has the research contributed anything new to the relevant subject area?
Ethics. Does the study meet the requirements for originality? Has the institutional review board approved the study (if applicable)? Does the study meet the requirements for impartiality in terms of conflicting interests? Regardless of its perceived significance, the manuscript cannot be accepted if it is a redundant publication, contains plagiarism, or violates the basic ethical principles of scientific research (justice, beneficence, and respect for persons).
Evaluation of manuscript elements. The editors of the journal recommend using the following questions to speed up the process of preparing an expert opinion and provide the most complete information about the article to the editor and the author.
Title. Does the title accurately reflect the content of the manuscript? Will the title attract readers’ attention?
Abstract. Does the abstract appropriately present the content of the manuscript? Is the abstract structured? Does the abstract describe the aim, methods, results, and significance of the work? Are there any discrepancies between the abstract and the sections of the manuscript? Is it possible to understand the abstract without reading the manuscript?
Introduction. Is the introduction short? Are the aim and the research question stated clearly? Has the author justified the relevance and significance of the work via a literature review? If so, does the introduction meet the requirements for length? Has the author defined the terms used in the manuscript? If the manuscript is submitted to the Original Research section, does it have a clearly stated hypothesis?
Literature review. How comprehensive and complete is the literature review?
Methods. Are the methods clear? Would another researcher be able to reproduce the study using the proposed methods? Have the authors justified their choice of methods (e.g. imaging techniques, analytical tools, or statistical methods)? If the authors pose a hypothesis, have they developed methods that can reasonably test it? How is the study design presented? How does the analysis of study data help achieve the aim of the work?
Results. Are the results clear? Does the order of result presentation match the order of method description? Are the results as expected? Are there results not preceded by an appropriate description in the Methods section? How accurate is the presentation of the results?
Discussion. Is the discussion short? If not, how can it be shortened? If a hypothesis is stated, is there a report on whether it has been confirmed or refuted? If the research has not confirmed the hypothesis, have the authors answered the research question? Are the authors’ conclusions consistent with the results obtained? If the results are unexpected, have the authors analysed them appropriately? What potential contribution does the study make to the field of research and science?
Conclusions. Have the authors acknowledged the limitations of their work? Are there any additional limitations that should be pointed out? What is the authors’ opinion on the limitations? What is the authors’ opinion on the directions for future research?
References. Does the list of references conform to the requirements of the journal? Are there any bibliographical errors in the list of references? Are the references cited correctly in the text? Are there any additional important publications that should be referenced? Are there too many references? Are the referenced publications still relevant?
Tables. If the article contains tables, do they present the results correctly? Should one or more tables be added? Are the data tabulated in a way that facilitates their understanding?
Figures. Are the figures suitable for addressing the research question? Would different figures better illustrate the findings? Do the figures and graphs adequately illustrate important findings? Should changes be made to the figures and graphs for a more accurate and clear presentation of the findings? Can the figures and graphs be understood from the captions without reading the manuscript?
Disclosure. Is the information on funding and conflicts of interest clearly disclosed?
Final decision of the reviewer
The editorial staff of the journal recommend using the following reasoning for the final decision of the reviewer.
Acceptance for publication. The reviewer understands that the manuscript is ready for publication in its current version. The work is sound, ethical, and significant for the scientific community. It complements previously published works. Its writing style is clear and concise.
Acceptance after minor revision. There are a few non-critical comments about the article that need to be addressed. These comments may point out poor writing style; lack of clarity; insufficiently developed structure; errors in references; or duplication of information in the text, figures, and tables. The article may be accepted for publication after revision and re-evaluation.
Acceptance after major revision and another round of peer review. The article has serious flaws and errors affecting the validity of the obtained results. Such flaws and errors may include ethical issues, a poor research design, gaps in the description of research methods, poorly presented or misinterpreted results, an incomplete description of study limitations, contradictory conclusions (or conclusions refuted by the author’s own statements), a lack of references to important publications, or unclear tables and figures that require serious revision. After another round of peer review, the article may be accepted, rejected, or sent for additional review. This decision often requires soliciting additional information from the author.
Rejection. The work does not correspond to the aims and objectives of The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal because there are irremediable flaws or serious ethical problems, for example, the authors have not obtained consent to publication of data (if required); the authors use unethical research methods; or the authors use discredited or flawed research methods (e.g., by ignoring a process that seriously affects the results). If this is the case, the author should not submit a revised version without a specific request. The reviewer should provide detailed comments justifying their decision as such comments may help the author to significantly improve their work.
Rejection and invitation to resubmit the article for consideration. The topic or the research question is interesting, but the author uses incorrect or unreliable methods, therefore, the data obtained are unreliable. This decision may also be made if the article requires multiple changes or if it is not possible to obtain the requested additional information from the author. The authors are encouraged to conduct the study taking into account the recommendations and submit new results for consideration.
Editing of reviews
The reviews should be written in a friendly tone and correct Russian language. The reviewers must avoid derogatory personal comments, insults to the author, and unjustified criticisms of the study aspects, the language and style of the manuscript, etc.
The editorial staff of the journal attempt to send the authors unedited reviews. However, the editorial staff may edit some of the reviews without sacrificing the meaning (for example, to combine comments on the same issue received from several reviewers or to transfer confidential comments from the section intended for the author).
If a review has many mistakes or an unacceptable tone, the editorial staff of the journal have the right to send it back to the reviewer for revision.

ETHICAL OVERSIGHT
The scientific journal " The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal” shares COPE's view that publication ethics includes not only ensuring the integrity and reliability of published research, but also ethical behavior regarding the subjects of research. This category includes vulnerable populations, laboratory animals, human subjects (where appropriate research is conducted), sensitive data, and business/marketing practices.
Vulnerable populations
Vulnerable populations include (but are not limited to) those who are unable to protect their own interests: pregnant women, newborns, children, fetuses in the womb, prisoners, the disabled, the mentally retarded, the economically disadvantaged, hospitalized patients in serious condition, etc. .
Research in vulnerable populations should only be planned if these groups will benefit from the research.
One of the concerns is that not all study participants, for objective reasons, can understand all the conditions of the study. If informed consent cannot be obtained from the direct participant in the study, this consent must be signed by his legal representative. Particular attention should be paid to studies involving children.
The editors of " The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal " support COPE's commitment to publishing research related to vulnerable populations.
Authors of articles must obtain informed consent for publication and report this to the editors of the journal “The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal.”
Working with confidential data
The right to privacy of individuals or organizations involved in research is of paramount importance and should not be violated without their informed consent. Authors must take all necessary precautions to protect the information of research participants. Where necessary, authors must take measures to minimize any potential physical and psychological harm to study participants.

Retraction
The Editorial Office of the “The Russian Automobile and Highway Industry Journal” does not review research articles simultaneously submitted to other Publication Offices, as well as manuscripts that, for the most part, have already been published somewhere as an article or a part of another work. In case of this fact discovery, the Editors of the journal will be forced to retract such publications.
The retraction rules of the published papers are based on the guidelines, recommendations and standards of international professional organizations, primarily the Committee on Publication Ethics (Committee on Publication Ethics – COPE).
Reasons for retraction:
- incorrect and/or unethical quotation (plagiarism) in the published paper;
- paper duplication in several publications;
- self-plagiarism with a large amount of repetition of research results and text fragments;
- fraudulent use of data: falsification and fabrication detection (for example, manipulation of experimental data);
- research misconduct: serious error detection (for example, incorrect interpretation of research data) that cast doubt on its scientific value;
- ethical misconduct: incorrect composition of authors (the absence of the person’s name who is worthy of being an author and the presence of the names who do not meet the authorship criteria);
- hidden conflict of interest;
- paper re-publication without the consent of the author;
- other violations.
Paper retraction from a journal is carried out:
- by the authors’ request or by other initiative persons with the Retraction Notice about identified violations;
- by the Publisher or the Editorial Office initiative.
The article retraction process does not depend on the paper publication date in which violations were found. The procedure for paper retracting is carried out after an investigation has been carried out and a decision has been made by the Editor-in-Chief and the Editorial Board of the scientific journal based on the results of the investigation. The decision to retract the paper is documented in the Retraction Notice of the Editorial Board of the journal.
Having made a decision to retract the article, the Editors indicate the reason for the retraction (in case of plagiarism detection, the sources of borrowing), as well as the date of retraction. The article and description of it remains on the journal’s website as part of the corresponding issue of the journal, but the electronic version of the text is marked with the inscription: “RETRACTED” and the date of retraction; the same mark is placed in the paper and in the issue contents.
When paper retraction procedure completes, retraction information is sent to all national and foreign information resources where journal is indexed or placed.
The Minutes of the Meeting of the Editorial Board of the journal is also sent to the author (authorized author in the case of collective authorship) of the retracted paper and the corresponding author about presence of grounds for retracting the paper. Retracted papers (metadata and full text) remain on the elibrary.ru platform with a mark that the paper has been retracted (in the metadata and in the full text, which is also supplemented with the inscription “RETRACTED”).
The same information is passed to the Ethics Committee for Scientific Publications of the Association of Scientific Editors and Publishers (ANRI) for inclusion to the Database of the Retracted Articles.
The editors of the journal do not consider manuscripts simultaneously submitted to other editions, as well as manuscripts the most part of which has already been published somewhere in the form of an article or as a part of another work. If the editors observe such facts, they retract (withdraw) such manuscripts.
