For Researchers

Mission and scope

American Impact Review publishes original research, applied studies, structured analytical reviews, and short communications across all academic disciplines. The journal prioritizes work that demonstrates measurable real-world impact and contributes to the advancement of knowledge.

The journal operates on a continuous publication model — articles are published individually as they complete the review and production process, rather than being held for scheduled issues. This allows research findings to become available to the scholarly community without delay.

Peer review process

All submitted manuscripts undergo single-blind peer review. Each submission is evaluated by at least two independent reviewers selected for their expertise in the relevant field. Editorial decisions are based on:

• Scientific rigor and methodological soundness
• Originality and significance of the contribution
• Clarity and quality of presentation
• Appropriateness and completeness of references
• Ethical compliance

The editorial board follows the guidelines established by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE).
