  • Adoption of Continuous Publication Within Regular Issues

    2025-10-09

    Dear Authors, Readers, Reviewers, and Partners,

    SINTHOP: Media Kajian Pendidikan, Agama, Sosial dan Budaya applies a continuous-publication model within its two regular issues each year.

    The journal maintains the following biannual publication schedule:

    • Issue 1: January–June
    • Issue 2: July–December

    Under this model, an article does not have to wait until every article in the issue is ready. An accepted article may be published within the active issue after it has completed peer review, editorial decision, copyediting, layout, author proofreading, final editorial approval, metadata verification, and DOI preparation.

    Continuous publication does not mean automatic acceptance, publication immediately after submission, publication before peer review, or publication of an unfinished manuscript. All submissions remain subject to the journal's editorial, peer-review, publication-ethics, and quality-control requirements.

    When an article is published, it receives its official publication date, DOI, volume, issue, pagination or article identifier, licence information, and final bibliographic metadata. The published article constitutes the version of record.

    Each issue remains active during its stated six-month period. At the end of that period, the editorial office verifies the table of contents, article files, DOI resolution, and issue-level metadata before formally closing the issue.

    Further information: The complete procedures governing publication scheduling, version-of-record controls, issue closure, DOI assignment, and metadata verification are available in the SINTHOP Publication Policy .

    This model supports the timely dissemination of peer-reviewed research while preserving SINTHOP's regular issue structure and publication-quality requirements.

    We thank our authors, reviewers, editors, readers, and partners for their continued support.

    Sincerely,
    Editorial Team

  • Official Statement: SINTHOP Journal Domain Migration

    2025-01-09

    Dear Authors, Readers, and Partners,

    We are pleased to announce that SINTHOP Journal is now officially hosted at its new independent domain:

    https://journal.sinthop.org

    This migration marks an important step in our journey. Since we are no longer in collaboration with UIN Ar-Raniry, the journal will continue its publication independently under this new domain.

    Please note the following:

    1. Archives and all previously published issues (Vol. 1 – Vol. 3) remain available at the former site https://journal.ar-raniry.ac.id/index.php/sinthop/index.

    2. Starting from Vol. 4 No. 1, all articles and future issues are exclusively published on this new platform.

    3. We are in the process of updating all indexing services (Google Scholar, DOAJ, Garuda, Dimensions, etc.) to ensure that publications under the new domain are fully indexed and accessible.

    We sincerely thank our contributors, reviewers, and readers for their continuous support. We are committed to maintaining high editorial standards and strengthening the visibility of SINTHOP Journal as a reputable and independent scientific publication.

    Warm regards,
    Editorial Team
