Reviewer Zero
How does the peer review system work? What strategies can you use to effectively respond to peer reviews?
On behalf of Reviewer Zero, a group dedicated to reimagine a fair and developmental peer review system to support the future of science and scholars, we’re excited to share a free resource: “How to Effectively Respond to Peer Reviews.”
This is an online, self-paced, and free module for anyone interested (takes about 50 minutes). This flexible format supports easy integration into graduate curriculum, as well as use for seminar/professional development discussion and academic journal resources.
You can access it here: https://purdue.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8puDsN2QbQCW2HQ
Specifically, in the module, we’ll discuss the general process of publishing and peer reviews, as well as strategies for dissecting and responding to reviewer comments. Throughout, there are opportunities to complete short exercises, answer questions, and get templates and resources for future reference. If you agree, you can opt in to allow the researcher to analyze your responses entered in the online module for research purposes, but this is completely optional.
This resource was funded by NSF and developed to support early-career researchers and promote access to knowledge for all. Please feel free to share this module with whoever you think may be interested.
