40.7 weeks |
n/a | 3 | 5 (excellent) |
4 (very good) |
Accepted | 2018 |
| Motivation: Two of the initial reviews were excellent; the third was very cursory/generic. First round of reviews were extremely slow (~7 months) and I had to email to push things forward. The editor was clear, decisive, and fast after the initial slowness. | ||||||||

2 (moderate) |
Rejected | 2017 |
| Motivation: My main criticism is that 3 months is a lot of time for a revision process (btw, my paper was quite short, only 3 figures), thus I expected at least a constructive criticism of the reviewers. Instead, one of the reviewers criticized the methodology without providing any advice or giving us any chance to justify the choice of our method. I believe this does not lead to a proper scientific discussion. | ||||||||

Rejected | 2016 |
| Motivation: Given that one reviewer was positive and the other recommended Reject, I believe the process could have benefited from a 3rd reviewer. | ||||||||

n/a | n/a | n/a | Rejected (im.) | 2013 |
| Motivation: Editor rejected manuscript based on a subjective opinion of methodological issues with study without consulting reviewers. I previously submitted the manuscript to another journal, and none of the reviewers had the issue on which the editor based his decision. Editor claimed that length of time to render decision was due to a missing associate editor. | ||||||||
