Description
Peer review is a vital part of the process of ensuring quality published research. Journal Editors and Conference track convenors are therefore dependent upon academic experts who can provide effective independent reviews of manuscripts submitted. However, there are growing suggestions of “a crisis in peer review” with concerns raised over the quality of reviewing, leading to both incidents of flawed research being published and papers becoming trapped in multiple cycles of reviews. One reason for this may be that the practice of good reviewing is seldom explicitly discussed.
This webinar is designed for Identity SIG members who are interested in becoming a reviewer, either for conference submissions or for journals, as well as for experienced reviewers who would like to hone their reviewing skills.
We are delighted to be joined by representatives from three key journals that many of our members target with their research: Prof Mark Learmonth, Editor of Human Relations, Prof. David Jones, Associate Editor of Management Learning and Prof. Valerie Anderson, Editorial Board for HRDR. These colleagues will examine such aspects as:
• Why would/should we serve as a reviewer?
• Reviewing developmentally
• Ethical responsibilities of reviewers
• Key questions to ask when undertaking a review
• How to effectively structure a review
We will also be joined by two experienced reviewers who will offer their own tips and techniques.
