Peer-Review Process
Peer-Review Process
The Quarterly of Experimental and Cognitive Psychology employs a double-blind anonymous peer-review process to ensure unbiased and high-quality evaluation of submissions. This process involves:
- Initial Screening: The editorial team reviews submissions for scope, originality, and adherence to journal guidelines.
- Reviewer Selection: Two or three expert reviewers, with relevant academic and research experience, are invited to evaluate the manuscript.
- Double-Blind Review: Authors and reviewers remain anonymous to each other to ensure impartial feedback.
- Review Outcomes: Reviewers recommend one of the following:
- Accept with no revisions.
- Minor revisions required.
- Major revisions required.
- Reject.
- Decision: The final decision, based on reviewers' feedback, is communicated to the authors along with constructive comments to guide revisions, if applicable.
The average turnaround time for the review process is 6-8 weeks.
