no

I would suggest absolutely not. This is not a conventional practice. If you do that, you must inform the journal editor that your article has been submitted elsewhere for consideration to avoid your article being published simultaneously by multiple journals.

No, it is not considered proper to have the same paper under consideration by more than one journal at the same time.  The journals I submit to often require me to affirm that the manuscript is not under consideration elsewhere.

Hi

If you feel that the journal you have submitted the manuscript to is taking a long time for review and subsequent decision, then you should first withdraw your paper from that journal. For that you should mail the Editor-in-chief or the handling editor about the withdrawal decision along-with proper reasons for the same. Once you receive their response, you are free to communicate it anywhere else. Simultaneously communicating one paper in two journals is never the correct practice. You can see the published papers of the journals for having an approximate idea of the time required for publication. Then you can select journal which suits you the most.

Thank You for Your responses. It was very useful for me.

I think no one allows it. First withdraw and then submit to the other one

Hello there,

Aside from plagiarism, submitting to more than one journal at a time might be one of the worst possible academic sins there is. For illustrative purpose just imagine you have submitted your work to 5 journals at the same time. It’s a great article and a few months later, you hear from all five journals that they would like to publish your article. Now you have to tell four of them that you’re not interested in publishing in their journal. This is bad for a few reasons in itself. First of all, it's insulting to the editor to say that you’ve chosen another journal over his or hers. They will probably remember this slight. Secondly, by the time you tell the editor you don’t want to publish in their journal, they may have already planned most, if not all, of that issue. So, now they have to go back and re-plan the entire thing. Other than this, next there is a legal issue associated. Once the article is accepted, or shortly thereafter, the journal owns the copyright to the article. You are going to get yourself into quite a tough spot if you have given the copyright to more than one journal. There is also an ethical angle to submitting to multiple journals at the same time. Editors are usually from academics background who have probably a separate full-time career as well. If you take up their time unnecessarily, that’s less time they have to teach, do their own research and writing, or read someone else’s work as well as attend to their personal needs. Submitting to more than one journal at a time is rude and speaks poorly about your character, it will potentially put you in a bad legal situation, and also wastes the time of some very busy people. That’s why when people who do this are discovered, they are often banned and blacklisted from the journals they submitted to for life.

Good day!

Regards

No you can't

It's ethics and you signed a paper that your article is original.

I totally agree with the stated views. Concurrent submission of an article to two journals is an academic crime. It is however sometimes frustrating to wait for a long time for feedback from journals.

I have also same doubt regarding particular topic thank you all of you for making us such huge discussions regarding this important topic.

It is illegal, after the rejected decision from the first journal, you can submit it to the second journal.

Highly problemmatic behavior for anyone, let alone a researcher whose credentials of "trust" and "honor" will follow him or her throughout their career.

NO It's not possible. You cannot submit the same research to two different journals at the same time. What if both of your submissions are accepted. You are inviting a serious case of plagiarism yourself. Journals will not help you as you are the one who is to be blamed for knowingly creating such problem.

Better see the journal acceptance time before submitting or if you are not patient during review process, mail the journal regularly or withdraw the paper from the journal before submitting to another journal.

Although some journals keep their eyes closed (see attachment for two such papers) and publish whatever is submitted to them leading to plagiarism, it's the duty of the author to maintain trust in the publishing process.

Regards

Impossible.

Impossible .

Maybe one could say it is possible, but it is not ethical.

The journals will likely ask you to testify that the paper you are submitting is not under consideration or published anywhere else.

So if you submit the same paper to more than one journal, you would need to lie.

No! One of the first things they ask you when you submit an article is to confirm that it is not submitted anywhere else. Be very careful about it, many journals have "black lists" of such authors and once you are "caught in the act", you are dead!

it is impossible

no

Dear it is not possible you must write official withdrawal letter to the editor and ensure he replied before you consider sending your paper to another journal to avoid multiple publishing by different journals.

It is unethical unless you disclosed such to the management of both Journals before the publication and I doubt the likelihood of any of them accepting such a misdemeanor . However, if the act has been committed, then prepare for the consequences that go with plagiarism, non-disclosure, indictable behaviour (by most academic institutions), etc. Just avoid it!

No, you can’t.

No

I think Cell Press offer joined consideration. You can submit to one journal and ask consider second one. Each journal will evaluate the paper independently. If both journals decide to review the paper, they will agree on reviewers and will make independent decisions based on feedback from those reviewers

No

@

not recommended, but a maximum of 2 journals for time consideration

I think, no

Hi Mohd. There are journals who offer expedite service for the review process for extra cost. That should be fine from my opinion, better than waiting for months....good luck
