SciRev article appeared in Scientometrics
Published 9 March 2017
Article based on SciRev data has been published in Scientometrics. The paper is available here. Duration of the peer review process takes on average 17 weeks and differs much between scientific fields. Medicine, Public health and Natural sciences have shortest durations. Mathematics/computer sciences, Social sciences, Economics/business and Humanities have longest durations. Qualitative data indicates that besides by a long duration of the process, authors are most frustrated by editors who do not take an independent position vis-à-vis reviewers and by bad communication of the editorial office.
