What the APC Supports
The Article Processing Charge contributes to legitimate scholarly publishing and journal-management activities, which may include:
- OJS administration and journal hosting;
- editorial administration and quality control;
- similarity checking;
- copyediting and proofreading;
- article layout and digital production;

No Paid Fast-Track Peer Review
MUDE does not offer paid fast-track scientific peer review. All manuscripts are processed according to the same editorial screening, peer-review standards, reviewer independence, ethical requirements, and editorial criteria. Payment of the APC does not provide accelerated scientific review, preferential editorial treatment, or guaranteed publication.
Editorial Independence
Editorial decisions are made independently on the basis of scope relevance, originality, methodological quality, scholarly contribution, research integrity, ethical compliance, peer-review evidence, and editorial standards. Financial administration is separated from scientific evaluation and editorial decision-making.
Waiver or Special Circumstances
If the journal offers a waiver, reduction, or other special administrative arrangement, such consideration is handled separately from manuscript evaluation and does not influence acceptance or rejection. Authors should contact the journal administration before payment when clarification is required.
Jurnal Multidisiplin Dehasen (MUDE) maintains a strict separation between editorial decision-making and financial administration. The Article Processing Charge supports scholarly publishing services and does not purchase manuscript acceptance, favourable review recommendations, authorship, citations, publication priority, or guaranteed publication.
