ABSTRACT This report presents an in‐depth analysis of the practices implemented by the World Scientific and Engineering Academy and Society (WSEAS) to ensure high academic quality and integrity in its journals and conferences. By systematically reviewing quality control procedures— including pre‐screening, multi‐tiered peer review, and certification of review processes—this study demonstrates that WSEAS maintains rejection rates between 20% and 30% (depending on the journal and field), which is indicative of rigorous selectivity. In addition, detailed examination of editorial governance, transparent fee policies, digital preservation practices, and comparisons against established warning signs for predatory publishing provide clear evidence that WSEAS is not a predatory publisher. |
