我们从中挑选了比较有借鉴意义的20个问题和专业回复 , 给大家做一些参考 。
Q1: 三个意见 , 两个修 , 一个拒 , 编辑选择拒 , 如何申诉能让编辑重新考虑?
A1:编辑部会参考审稿意见 , 最终决定是接受论文还是拒稿 , 编辑部的工作就是践行期刊的编辑标准 。 编辑部可能不会改变决定 , 但您仍然可以选择通过电子邮件向他们提出申诉 , 解释为什么您认为不应该拒稿 , 并提供支持您主张的依据 。 编辑部收到意见相反的审稿人报告时 , 通常会请其中一名成员担任审稿人 。 您的情况可能是 , 编辑部的某个成员给出了“拒稿”意见 。
The final decision on whether to accept or reject an article based on the reviewer reports will lie with the editor, as it is their job to apply the journal’s editorial standards. It may be unlikely that they will change their decision, but you can still choose to make an appeal by emailing them and explaining why you think the decision was incorrect, providing evidence to support your claims. When an editor receives conflicting reviewer reports they will often consult a member of the Editorial Board who will act as an adjudicator. It may be that the “reject” report came from a member of the editorial board in your case.
Q2:同行评审关注哪些方面呢?有什么特别需要注意的吗?
A2:审稿人会通读您的论文 , 但您必须格外重视摘要部分 。 这是审稿人在决定是否查看全文时可以看到的论文的唯一部分 , 这也是他们对您论文的第一印象 。 您还应确保图表清晰、完整 , 结论部分能够充分概括您论文的重要性 。
Reviewers will read your article in its entirety, but it is always worth paying close attention to the abstract. This will be the only part of your article that they can see while deciding whether to review the article or not, and it will be how they form a first impression of your work. You should also make sure that figures are clear, and self-contained, and that your conclusions sufficiently summarise the significance of your work.
Q3:如何挑选一本最合适的目标期刊呢?想冲击又不敢 , 想算了又不甘心 。
A3:您应该评估您论文的创新点及其对您所在领域研究的潜在影响 , 这可能很难做到 。 我建议您阅读感兴趣的同类期刊论文 , 与您自己的论文进行比较 。 还要与您的导师协商 , 看他们会推荐您在哪本期刊上发表论文 。
You should assess the level of novelty in your work and its potential impact on research in your field, which can be challenging to do. I would recommend reading comparable work in journals that you are interested in and comparing them to your own. It is also worth consulting with your supervisors to find out where they would recommend publishing your work.
