Motivation: Somewhat long for a desk reject. Although reasonable given the current policy of having at least two editors review every paper (both must agree with the decision). The editors were kind and, unexpectedly, provided me with thoughtful feedback on the manuscript.

Motivation: One reviewer suggetsed conditional accept, one R&R, and one did not like the quantiative approach and suggested that this should have been a qualitative paper and hence rejected it. Very bad handling by the editors.

Motivation: A top notch empirical contribution, but not enough theoretical contribution, apparently not enough for this journal. Reviews are helpful.

Motivation: From the perspective of the author, an average review. The reviews were all very detailed. Overall, failed to enthuse the reviewers.
