03 · How the board works

How a manuscript reaches these editors

A submission is matched to the editor whose recorded expertise is closest to its subject, and that editor carries it through review to a decision.

Screening
All submissions undergo initial editorial screening. Manuscripts that meet the journal's scope and minimum requirements proceed to independent peer review.
Peer review
Single-blind by default; double-blind review is available on request. Manuscripts that proceed to external peer review are normally evaluated by at least two independent subject-matter experts.
Decisions
Editorial decisions are based on scope, scientific quality, methodological rigor, ethical compliance, reporting quality, and relevance to the journal.
Competing interests
Editors declare competing interests on the manuscripts they handle. An editor who is an author on a submission stands aside from its assessment, which is handled by an independent editor.
Guidance
The standards editors and reviewers work to are published in the editors guidelines, the reviewer guidelines and the editorial policies.

Editorial decisions are independent of payment. The editors who assess a manuscript take no part in invoicing, and every decision rests on the criteria above.

Board membership, reviewing and any service purchased from the publisher leave the handling of a member’s own submissions exactly as it would otherwise be: those manuscripts go to an independent editor and are judged on the same criteria.

The subjects these editors cover are set out in the aims and scope, and the journal’s purpose and publishing terms on the about page.
