INTRODUC TION

E ditorial Peer Review Helps in improving the quality of biological study findings. Editorial peer review is a mechanism that is used all over the world to evaluate and enhance the quality of submissions to biomedical journals, both print and electronic. Authors benefit from the assistance offered by reviewers and from the status conferred on them by publication in j ournals with high peer review standards. This article conducted a review of existing evidence on the effectiveness of editorial peer review. Contd...


Here are stated a few studies of reasonable quality, and most of these are concerned with the effects of blinding reviewers. Scientific findings must withstand critical review if they are to be accepted as valid, and Editorial peer review (critique, effort to disprove) is an essential element of a scientific process. From journal selection to its submission, Phdssistance supports authors at each step and gets their work ready to be submitted for publication in high standard journals. Our E diting Support service is designed specially for early-stage researchers to make the rigorous publication process simple and easy.


THE USE OF PEER REVIEW Learned societies and journal editors usually rely on the views of independent (outside) content experts in making decisions on publication of submitted m anuscri pts or presentation of reports at meetings. This system of appraisal is known as peer review. The use of peer review is generally expected to raise the quality of the end-product (i.e. the journal or scientific meeting) and to provide a mechanism for rational, fair and objective decision-making (Rennie 2003).


Surveys indicate that clinicians give greater credence to findings published in peer-reviewed journals , yet little attention is paid to the definition of peer review or effects of variations in review practices between journals (Godlee 2003).

To estimate the effect of processes, or combinations of processes, in editorial peer review on the outcomes studied in the r esearch on this topic. These processes are grouped as: different ways of screening submissions (i.e. carrying out a preliminary assessment of the submission) different ways of assigning submissions (i.e. choosing and assigning assessors to the submission) different ways of masking submissions (i.e. concealing the identity and background of the authors and/or the assessors)



different ways of eliciting internal opinions (i.e. opinions on the scientific quality of the submission from those within the publishing organisation) different ways of eliciting external opinions (i.e. opinions on the scientific quality of the submissions from those outside the publishing organisation) different(grouporsingleperson)decision-making procedures(i.e.deciding whether to publish the submission) different types of feedback to author(s) and subsequent revision of submissions acombinationoftheaboveoranyotherprocessthatcanbeconsideredas editorial peer review Contd...
