Peer Review Process 同行评审流程

All manuscripts submitted to NTAS undergo a rigorous peer review process. The Editor-in-Chief initially screens all submissions for suitability. Manuscripts that meet the journal's standards are then sent to at least two independent reviewers with expertise in the relevant field. The review process is double-blind, meaning that the identities of both the authors and reviewers are concealed from each other. 所有提交给NTAS的手稿都要经过严格的同行评审流程。主编首先对所有提交的稿件进行筛选，以确定其是否适合发表。符合期刊标准的手稿随后会被发送给至少两位在相关领域具有专业知识的独立评审人。评审过程是双盲的，这意味着作者和评审人的身份对彼此都是保密的。

Publication Frequency 出版频率

NTAS is published quarterly, with issues released in March, June, September, and December of each year. NTAS每季度出版一次，每年的3月、6月、9月和12月发行。
