We aim to make decisions on all submitted manuscripts, including commissioned content, based on the advice of at least two independent reviewers. To give an informed and unbiased opinion on a manuscript, reviewers should be well qualified, with a significant and steady publication record, and an in-depth knowledge of the subject matter and methodology. Some manuscripts may require additional independent reviewers, particularly if multi-disciplinary or if they require the specialized skills of a statistician.

1. Active in the relevant field and/or methodology as judged by their publication record
2. Ideally having published more than 10 articles in the past 10 years
3. Reviewers should be ‘independent’ of one another
4. Requesting Author-suggested reviewers
