Scope ----- The TD1306 COST Action PEERE organises an interdisciplinary conference on peer review. The conference aims to provide a forum for scholars, practitioners and science stakeholders to share evidence on peer review in different fields, e.g., medicine, computer science, social sciences and humanities. It aims to stimulate the use of evidence-based research in the design and implementation of peer review in a variety of fields and encourage more systematic research. The conference welcomes any contribution (e.g., original research, position papers, literature reviews) that uses any method (e.g., quantitative, experimental or qualitative) to investigate peer review in a variety of scientific domains (e.g., scholarly journals, funding agencies, research assessment). Interdisciplinary research is especially welcome. Main topics of interest ----------------------- The topics of interest to the conference include, but are not limited to: Quantitative and qualitative analysis of peer review in scholarly journals and funding agencies Estimating editorial and reviewer bias The impact of different peer review models (single vs. double blind, confidential vs. open etc.) on reviewer attitudes and editorial decisions Incentives, motivation and recognition in peer review Social network analysis of peer review and editorial policy Models and theories of peer review: principles, functions and management Applications of bibliometrics, altmetrics and scientometrics to peer review Perspectives from policy makers, grant funding agencies, libraries, and publishers Computer simulation studies of peer review dynamics and outcomes
Submission and publication -------------------------- All papers must be original, unpublished, and not submitted for publication elsewhere. We encourage two types of submissions: full papers, 10 to 12 pages, single column, max 8000 words or extended abstracts, 3 to 4 pages max, single column. Submissions should include title, author(s), including affiliations and corresponding author address, abstracts (in case of full papers), keywords, text (including tables and figures) and references. Submissions will be judged on their originality, significance, clarity, relevance, and technical correctness. Each submission will be peer -reviewed by at least two programme committee members.
