I am pleased to share my positive experience of publishing with SER. The reviewers provided constructive and insightful comments that strengthened the manuscript and advanced the contribution to knowledge. In addition, the editorial support throughout the process was highly professional, efficient, and supportive. Looking ahead, I believe an important next stage for the journal would be to further enhance its visibility and citation impact, with a view to strengthening its profile and working towards SSCI indexing. Thank you once again for your support and for the opportunity to publish with SER. It would be my honour to consider submitting future work to the journal.
