Ur ett pressmeddelande från Elsevier som visar på stor framsynthet som skulle gynna forskningen. Även artikelgranskarna har ofta ett viktigt bidrag att lämna.
Amsterdam, April 2, 2012 - Elsevier, a world-leading provider of scientific, technical, and medical information products and services, has launched a pilot project aimed at improving the quality of peer review. Review reports for articles in Agricultural and Forest Meteorology will be published alongside the article on SciVerse ScienceDirect. The pilot will last until the end of 2012. If successful, the initiative will also be applied to other Elsevier journals.
“Making the reviews visible to all readers of the article will ultimately lead to higher quality review reports," said Martin Tanke, Managing Director of STM Journals, Elsevier. “In addition, by openly publishing the reviews we want to publically acknowledge the intellectual contribution of the reviewer to the article.”
