ThemesPeer review
What is this about?
Peer review is an evaluation of a piece of work by persons from the same or a similar field of work (peers). Peer review is very important in science, and it is conducted to ensure quality before (or sometimes even after) the publication of new knowledge. This article is about scholarly (academic) peer review (1).
Why is this important?
In a scientific journal, the editor is responsible for the quality of published research. Of course, an editor cannot possibly know everything about all areas of research. They must, therefore, seek help from other experts to assess the quality of research. They rely on their knowledge and experience to identify possible weaknesses in research (2). For authors, the peer review process provides thoughtful comments to help them improve their manuscript. Peer review is important in scientific publishing, but also in reviewing project proposals or, sometimes, conference abstracts.
For whom is this important?
