The scope of the project

The Peer Review Study is the first large-scale investigation about peer reviewing in social sciences worldwide.

The Project unfolds, firstly, as a large-scale survey distributed to more than 150,000 scholars worldwide (data collection started in November 2023). Data from journal editors, an computational approaches to leverage information available online, for instance in existing repositories of research profiles, are also explored.
