As an author, it\u2019s like getting a stamp of approval\u2014your work gains respect and opens doors for promotions, grants, and collaborations. Feedback from reviewers, even in rejections, sharpens your skills. As a reviewer, you\u2019re not just giving back; you\u2019re expanding your own knowledge and gaining insights into what makes strong research. It can be like networking, making connections with colleagues globally.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">Plus, it\u2019s an honor, possibly leading to greater visibility as a peer reviewer, other invitations to review or collaborate, and it provides a deeper understanding of the academic landscape. Both roles can essentially be career-boosters.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"><span style=\"color:#0070c0\">Peer review has been an established process for long, and yet standardized ways of recognizing reviews as scholarly contributions have not yet been widely adopted. What are the reasons behind this?<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">Yes, considering how much energy and effort are invested by already quite busy peer reviewers across the world, this is quite frustrating. One reason might be the traditional focus on publications as the primary yardstick for scholarly merit rather than the work that goes on behind the scenes\u2014the old problem of product over process.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">Another factor is probably that it can be tricky to evaluate the quality and impact of reviews. Unlike papers, where you can count and measure citations, reviews don\u2019t have clear metrics. Who decides what\u2019s a good review, what\u2019s constructive feedback, etc.?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">However, there are practices that give hope for more recognition of this work in the future. Some journals offer reviewer-recognition programs, giving credit and even certificates to top-notch reviewers. Many journals thank their reviewers by name in their publications.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"><span style=\"color:#0070c0\">In your experience as a researcher yourself and as someone who has studied academic career progression, what are some effective ways for a researcher to showcase their peer review work?<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">Response:<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"> There are some websites and platforms that record how much peer review work you\u2019ve done, which can be a useful reference to draw on when applying for academic jobs, higher editorial roles, etc., where this work is valued. It\u2019s also generally considered a valid and an important contribution to your scholarly community.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">If you have a website you can display that information there, too. If the journal you review for provides the option of acknowledging your work on their website or print material, I\u2019d say yes to that. Use social media to comment or talk about your peer review practice. This will not only show your contribution but also raise the profile of peer review work in academic work more widely. The problem now I think is that it\u2019s too private, too hidden behind the scenes, and it\u2019s a lot of work!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"><span style=\"color:#0070c0\">Many PhD students or early career researchers (ECRs) tend to be initiated into the process of reviewing by being asked by supervisors to help conduct their own reviews. Do you have views on how prevalent this practice is and how often such contributions receive due credit? What can be done to better recognize student\/ECR support in the peer review process?<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">Response:<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"> As long as supervisors do it as an educational exercise and not to get busy PhDs do the work for them, I think it\u2019s actually a great way to build an understanding of what peer review entails, how it contributes to one\u2019s academic development in relation to learning more about one\u2019s area of scholarship, or how to provide constructive feedback, learn about different views and approaches on a topic.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">I personally haven\u2019t asked my PhDs to do this yet, but I think as an exercise to develop judgment and critical thinking in the student, this would be quite valuable. At the same time, it might improve my own judgment if I can discuss my views on the paper with someone else. I might actually try this next time there\u2019s an opportunity and ask my student, \u201cWhat do you think of this?\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">In any case, I\u2019d encourage PhD students to get involved and start reviewing papers early in their careers to develop expertise, and importantly get credit and build a track record!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"><span style=\"color:#0070c0\">Finally, how do you envision peer review itself changing in the future and how might that affect how reviewer contributions are recognized?<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">Response:<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"> I think, as AI is now increasingly used to aid the writing process, it will also gain a more prominent role in judging and assessing papers in the future. For example, AI assistance could form the first review cycle before humans apply their judgment. I also think the open review process I mentioned earlier will gain even more traction, as more academics will and should claim for their work investment to be more visible and acknowledged.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">Such recognition might be in the form of badging, credentials, or an impact score, although I\u2019m wary of introducing even more metrics to academic life. And these moves would need to trigger better peer review training, for example, starting with PhD students.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-autospace:none\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\">I personally would love to see much more recognition of diversity and wider cultural and geographical diversity in peer reviews.
