The Editorial Board of NSC Nursing consists of a group of highly qualified researchers and professors, experts in different areas of nursing research, and professors and researchers of Psychometrics, Psychology and Biostatistics. All members of the Editorial Board participate in the decisions and strategies of the Journal. Each member of the Editorial Board also supports the journal as a reviewer. External reviewers are involved only when there are no Editors available or there are no Editors with the expertise to evaluate a manuscript. The Editorial Board includes a Managing Editor, who is responsible for all editorial processes, indexing the journal in databases, and preparing a final report for each article based on reviewers’ comments. There is also an Assistant to the Managing Editor who handles correspondence with authors, reviewers and our partners. Finally, our Editor-in-Chief oversees the transparency of the entire editorial process, finalizes the decision on the submitted articles, establishes relationships with other journals and seeks partnerships for the journal.
