How can you tell if an article is peer-reviewed?
Answer
Many databases have a function to limit search results to peer-reviewed articles. In some databases, you may have to go to the advanced search bar to do this.
If checking for a specific article, use the journal's webpage to determine their editorial process. A simple Google search for the journal title will usually locate the journal's website.
Information about peer review is often listed in the following areas:
- About Us
- Editorial Process
- Instructions for Authors
- Submission Guidelines
