Journal of Business and Social Sciences Research (JBSSR) is a double-blind, peer-reviewed journal of Ace Institute of Management (AIM), a leading business school of Nepal affiliated with Pokhara University. The main purpose of this refereed journal is to advance and foster the research in the disciplines of management, business, and social sciences, through active engagement with different stakeholders including academicians, researchers, policy makers, students and entrepreneurs. The journal aims at providing a vehicle for increasing awareness, consideration and analysis of issues in management, business and social sciences, and also promoting the interchange of ideas within Nepal and other parts of the world. The journal has the policy to promote original research works and reviews on the new topics through innovative approaches.
The Journal also seeks to promote research works from budding researchers and students in the topics accepted. The papers published in the journal are recognised with their unique DOI (Crossref-indexed).
JBSSR covers the disciplines of management, business, managerial economics and social sciences.
The JBSSR is a journal that operates a double blind, peer review process: every paper is reviewed by subject and domain experts by ensuring anonymity of both authors and reviewers. The chief editor sends the paper for blind, peer review after performing initial screening. Then, the authors are apprised of the comments received from the refereed reviewers so that the former incorporate the latter’s comments into their papers.
So improved papers are submitted to the editorial team following which the Chief Editor reverts them to the reviewers if the improved submission does not still meet the scientific quality meant for a research journal. The final, improved paper is finally edited and formatted by the Chief Editor for publication.
The JBSSR editorial team recognises the value and importance of peer reviewers in the overall publication process - not only in shaping individual manuscripts, but also in shaping the credibility and reputation of our journal. We are committed to the timely publication of all original, innovative contributions submitted for publication. As such, the selection of reviewers who have expertise and interest in the topics appropriate to each manuscript is essential elements in ensuring a timely, productive peer review process. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the blind, peer reviewers who participated in shaping this volume of JBSSR. We appreciate the time taken to perform the review successfully.
