Explore our Open Peer Review process: transparency, constructive feedback, and published reviewer comments.
Open Peer Review in all Brieflands Journals
An Open Peer Review (OPR) process makes the details of the review process — the comments of reviewers, associate editors, and the Editor-in-Chief — public, as agreed upon by the EIC, the authors, and the reviewers. Below you can browse every published review report across Brieflands journals.
Why we publish review reports
We publicly publish as many peer review processes as possible on our accepted articles, because openness changes the quality of the conversation.
Transparency
Readers can see how an article was evaluated and why it was accepted — the process itself becomes part of the scholarly record.
Constructive, tactful comments
Reviewers who know their words will be published write more careful, more constructive assessments.
Motivation for every role
Public credit gives reviewers, associate editors, and editors more motivation to do the work well.
Author satisfaction
Authors see a fair, accountable process — and trust the decision, whichever way it goes.
How to use the tables below. Table 1 counts the published reviewer comments in each Brieflands journal; Table 2 lists every article with a published review report, with a direct link. The same list also appears at the top of each journal's homepage.
Both tables are dynamic and update automatically whenever a new peer review report (OPR) is published. Please contact us with any further questions.
