Role of Editors and Editorial Board members

Role of editor-in-chief
The editor-in-chief (EIC) has a final responsibility to publish manuscripts after review in the journal independently although she hears opinions of reviewers and editors. The EIC is the final decision maker on publishing and editorial policies and presides the editorial board meeting. When any issue on the publication ethics occurs, the EIC presides the ad hoc meeting for resolution of each issue and finally decides on the journal’s statement.
She recommends editorial board members to the President of the Korean Society of Women Health Nursing. She attends the executive board meeting of the Society to explain the journal’s status and budget. Externally, the EIC attends meetings of editors’ associations as a delegate of the society, including the Korean Council of Science Editors and the Korean Association of Medical Journal Editors.

Role of associate editor:
Two Associate editors help the EIC by screening the submitted manuscript for compatibility with the journals’ aims and scope, whether it is described according to the journal’s style and format, and check for plagiarism using Copy Killer and/or CrossCheck (iThenticate). They also participate in selecting reviewers for each manuscript. The associate editors meet with the EIC regularly to discuss the review results and decide on acceptance of manuscripts. They can invite authors for commissioned articles.

Role of editorial board members
Editorial board members meet regularly to discuss the editorial policy and propose changes for improvement. They frequently participate in the review of manuscript and may recommend new reviewers. They may write an Editorial or Issues and Perspectives manuscript. They ask colleagues to submit a manuscript to the journal and may recommend potential authors for commissioned articles.

International advisory board members also advise the EIC for journal promotion and writing Issues and Perspectives manuscripts. They recruit submissions from outside of Korea. Their experience in journal editing is shared with the editorial board.

Ethics editor: The Ethics editor provides consultation and the resolution process on publication ethics issue, upon referral from the EIC. The Ethics editor also provides lectures relating to research and publication ethics issues to reviewers and editorial board members, as part of regular education sessions sponsored by the journal.

Statistical editors: The Statistical editors thoroughly review the statistics used in the manuscripts for appropriateness and logical interpretation. If any flaws are found, they will be reported to the EIC or Associate editors and are shared with authors for improvement.

English editor: The English editor proofreads all manuscripts for the abstract and English summaries, as well as full manuscript for English articles. Suggestions for better flow and logical thought processes are provided.

Manuscript editor: The Manuscript editor checks the style and format of all manuscripts according to the journal’s guidelines.

Lay-out editor: The Lay-out editor produces the PDF file according to the journal’s format.

Website and JATS XML File Producer: Production of JATS XML files based on the journal’s DTD is done and content is uploaded to the journal homepage.
