6.16. Handling of Rejected Papers. (approved 11 November 2009)

Authors of rejected manuscripts are allowed to resubmit their manuscripts afresh only once. At the time of submission, authors will be asked whether they consider their manuscript to be a new submission or a resubmission of an earlier rejected manuscript. If the authors indicate that their manuscript is a new submission, then the review process will follow the regular procedure.

If authors indicate instead that their manuscript is a resubmission, then they are required to upload a supporting document detailing how the new submission has addressed the concerns raised during the previous review. Authors may also request that the resubmission be handled by the same Associate Editor, if the Associate Editor has not retired from the board. The Editor-in-Chief will do his/her best effort to accommodate the author’s request while taking into consideration the balancing of the workload among the Associate Editors of the editorial board of the journal. A new Associate Editor may also be assigned to the manuscript by the Editor-in-Chief.

Even when the manuscript is flagged by the authors to be a resubmission of an earlier rejected paper, the manuscript will be treated as a new submission with a new submission date; it is not treated as an RQ version.

The assigned Associate Editor can use the previous reviewers or a new set of reviewers, or a mix of old and new reviewers. It is preferable that the Associate Editors use some of the previous reviewers to help ascertain that the revision has addressed the concerns of the earlier review cycle. The selection of the reviewers is left to the discretion of the Associate Editor.

If the authors indicated during the submission process that their manuscript is a new submission and it is found during the review process that the manuscript is very similar to an earlier rejected paper, then the manuscript may be immediately rejected. Authors can still resubmit their manuscript and indicate correctly that it is a resubmission of an earlier rejected manuscript, including uploading of the required supporting document detailing how the new submission has addressed the concerns raised during the previous review.

6.16。退稿处理。(2009年11月11日通过)

被退稿的作者只能重新提交一次稿件。在提交的时候，作者会被询问他们是否认为他们的手稿是一个新的提交或重新提交一个较早的被拒绝的手稿。如果作者表明他们的稿件是新提交的，那么审查过程将按照常规程序进行。

如果作者表明他们的原稿是重新提交的，那么他们就需要上传一份支持文件，详细说明新提交的论文是如何解决之前审查中提出的问题的。如果副编辑没有从委员会退休，作者也可以要求由同一副编辑处理重新提交。主编将尽力满足作者的要求，同时兼顾期刊编委会副主编之间的工作量平衡。主编也可以指派一名新的副主编来处理原稿。

即使手稿被作者标记为先前被拒绝的论文的重新提交，该手稿将被视为新的提交，并有新的提交日期;它不被视为RQ版本。

指定的副编辑器可以使用以前的审阅者或一组新的审阅者，或者新旧审阅者的混合。副主编最好利用一些以前的审查员来帮助确定修订工作已经解决了较早的审查周期所关注的问题。审稿人的选择由副主编自行决定。

如果作者在提交过程中表明他们的稿件是新的，并且在评审过程中发现该稿件与之前被拒绝的论文非常相似，那么该稿件可能会被立即拒绝。作者仍然可以重新提交他们的原稿，并正确地表明这是对之前被拒绝的原稿的重新提交，包括上传所需的支持文件，详细说明新提交的原稿是如何解决之前评审中提出的问题的。
