Before submitting your manuscript, please follow all the JFR Guidelines. The JFR only accepts submissions of original works that have not previously been published or are currently under consideration/review at other journals.  We use Crossref Similarity Check by iThenticate to ensure that each manuscript is original.  Any works found to be in whole or in part a duplication of any other work(s) (including those of the submitting author[s]), without appropriate citation will be desk rejected.
