Latest review

First review round: 19.3 weeks. Overall rating: 3 (good). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
The journal is multidisciplinary in the social sciences, which is a positive aspect. Regarding the review process, it took a bit longer than expected, and the quality of the reviewers’ comments was average. I consider it a good option for researchers who want to publish their first article in a Q1 journal.
