Journal Title
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMAN-COMPUTER STUDIES
INT J HUM-COMPUT ST
ISSN / eISSN
1071-5819 / 1095-9300
Aims and Scope
The International Journal of Human-Computer Studies publishes original research over the whole spectrum of work relevant to the theory and practice of innovative interactive systems. The journal is inherently interdisciplinary, covering research in computing, artificial intelligence, psychology, linguistics, communication, design, engineering, and social organization, which is relevant to the design, analysis, evaluation and application of innovative interactive systems. Papers at the boundaries of these disciplines are especially welcome, as it is our view that interdisciplinary approaches are needed for producing theoretical insights in this complex area and for effective deployment of innovative technologies in concrete user communities.
Research areas relevant to the journal include, but are not limited to:
• Innovative interaction techniques
• Multimodal interaction
• Speech interaction
• Graphic interaction
• Natural language interaction
• Interaction in mobile and embedded systems
• Interface design and evaluation methodologies
• Design and evaluation of innovative interactive systems
• User interface prototyping and management systems
• Ubiquitous computing
• Wearable computers
• Pervasive computing
• Affective computing
• Empirical studies of user behaviour
• Empirical studies of programming and software engineering
• Computer supported cooperative work
• Computer mediated communication
• Virtual reality
• Mixed and augmented Reality
• Intelligent user interfaces
• Presence

Verified Reviews
This AE was assigned for the second review, and there were no results for six months. I asked three times in between (once a month after three months without results), and they all said that out of the three reviewers who accepted the review, only one came back with feedback (which was to accept the paper). I thought that one opinion shouldn't make the decision, so I decided to wait. After a few more months, I received an email saying that the paper was rejected because they found a new reviewer, and the reason for rejection was that it didn't align with the human-computer interaction and journal content. It was confusing and absurd because none of the four reviewers in the first review or the initial AE mentioned that my paper on human gesture recognition and interaction did not align with the journal's scope. The whole submission process took almost a year and a half, and most of it was under the second AE, which was really frustrating.
As for the journal, it's still good. The first AE was very responsible, and the feedback from the four reviewers in the first review was very professional. Let's just avoid this AE.
Translation: It seems that Aries has detected issues with slowness in EM/PM, which may cause delays in processing. Please be aware that the work queues are processed in the order they are received on the servers, and although it may take some time to complete, your work will not be lost. We will provide further updates on the situation as soon as possible.
"I don't know what this means, but it seems that other publications by elsver have also experienced similar issues. I submitted it on March 15th, and after the assignment of an AE (Editorial Assistant), I haven't heard anything since."
