IJAER accepts the electronic forms research articles, short communication works and it is a peer reviewed journal is one in which each feature article has been examined by people with credentials in the article's field of study before it is published. Collections of papers from conferences may be considered peer reviewed as well, if the original presentations were "invited" or examined by experts before being accepted. Papers which appear in sources like these are considered to be as reliable as humanly possible.
In "double blind" peer review, neither the author nor the reviewers know each others' identities. Not all peer review is double blind. As well, the literature of any profession may include journals written both for practitioners and for theorists.

The referees are chosen from referee board according to their expertise. Referees are asked to evaluate the manuscript’s originality, methodology, contribution to the literature, presentation of results and support for the conclusions, and appropriate referencing of previous relevant studies. Referees might accept the manuscript, reject the manuscript or might require a revision for style and/or content.
