Motivation:
I have fixed several bugs that existed in the original version of the paper's text.
According to referee's notes I have corrected the Introduction of the paper and added
a few additional references in the bibliography.

Motivation:
Editor noted in his acceptance that the paper was "accepted as is, a rarity at this journal". Consequently we didn't get to see the peer review reports, even though the paper had spent over seven months in the review process.
Motivation:
The reviewers' comments were contradictory.
Motivation:
The whole process was very smooth and professional. The editors were very willing to work with you to get the manuscript accepted. They were also very good at keeping me up-to-date with where the manuscript was at in the review process. Everything was very transparent.
Motivation:
Three reviewers judged very differently about the manuscript, one suggested minor changes and made valueable comments, one was intermediate, suggested major revisions, but from the report it appears that this was not a specialist in the field, the third referee recommended rejection, although there was only one major point that was criticized. We wrote a rebuttal to the points raised by the referees and asked for a resubmission, which was allowed, although the initial rejection. We then re-worked the manuscript including many new analyses.
Motivation:
Reviewer turnaround was very efficient. Statistical review was very thorough.
Motivation:
In general, the review process was OK. The total duration was reasonable given this field of research.
Motivation:
Quick and transparent process; comments from referees and editor were very helpful to improve the paper
Motivation:
immediate rejection that took them 25 days!
Motivation:
I had to wait more than one year for a decision after the first review round.
All the comments by the reviewers were addressed in the second round but the editors decided to send to the reviewers again. One of the reviewers rejected the paper using completely new arguments that had never been raised before referring to points that were in the original paper.
