Abstract
Manuscript submissions to the Philippine Journal of Science (PJS; philjournalsci.dost.gov.ph) in 2023 were at 42.50 ± 13.29 per month, which is 47% higher than that (28.92 ± 8.49) in 2022. The acceptance rates in 2022 and 2023 were 66.18 and 42.68%, respectively. Presented below are figures of manuscript submissions (blue) and acceptance rate (green) from 2010–2023. The number of submissions in 2023 was 8.5 times higher than that in 2015, whereas the acceptance rate decreased by more than 24% compared to the average rate of 67 ± 4% in the last eight years ending 2022. Without exception, the Editorial Office subjects every submission to a single-blind peer-review process involving at least two independent expert-evaluators, and an editorial decision is rendered immediately after the first round when major manuscript revision is unanimously recommended. In most cases, the final decision is made on publication suitability after two rounds of evaluation.
