Nowadays, in the global environment where we live, the importance and necessity of having serious scientific journals with high standards for publishing the results of the work of researchers it is increasing. As academics are required to publish scientific papers in order to demonstrate their scientific work in achieving academic degrees in higher education institutions, as well as to evaluate their performance, they are encountered everyday with the increased number of invitations to publications with accelerated procedures, without going through a regular procedure of reviewing the work. Day after day the integrity of academic publications is being threatened by publishers and such journals, which aim at material benefits rather than contribution to scientific research. In general, in developing countries there is a gap in the knowledge of scientific researchers in terms of selecting publishers and journals for publication; it often happens that they publish in such journals as a result of the lack of proper information about them.

Journal of Economics and Economic Education Research (JEEER), it is part of the Allied Business Academies, and the submitted papers for publication are subject to a double blind peer review process. The journal aims to expand the horizon of this scientific discipline through constant dissemination of innovations and knowledge sharing to further the reader’s understanding of Economics and Economics Education. The seriousness, accuracy and strict rules of this magazine are evident through the current obtaining rate of manuscripts that it is 30%, making JEEER very competitive in the market. The journal it is listed in Google Scholar, ProQuest, Cengage Gale, LexisNexis and several other academic databases and publish every year different issues.

I think that writing for a scientific journal is really hard and highly competitive. In fact, even if the author can have a great idea about a research, it is challenging to sum it up in a way that will attract the interest of reviewers. But, the journal through its guidelines helps in preparing the manuscript, to be acceptable in order to facilitate then the evaluation process. Also JEEER uses a framework of standards that summarize behaviours that can improve transparency and reproducibility of research such as transparency of data, materials, code, and research design, preregistration, and replication.

Sometimes serious concerns have been expressed from the authors over declining ethics and quality of research publications. For that I will highlight that the first goal for JEEER has been to secure always to the authors the best practice in the ethics of scientific publishing. An advantage of the journal it is the peer review process, with which it serves to determine whether a manuscript is in accordance with the journal's scope, if the research topic has been clearly formulated, and also to decide if a suitable approach has been taken to address the scientific issues involved. The most important of all the things it is that the JEEER IS committed to the highest standards of peer review. In every situation, the work of JEEER has being appreciated by many academicians, researchers, and editors from over the world, by increasing demand for publication.
