中文摘要:

学术期刊同行评议进度跟踪有利于编辑部提前发现审稿异常稿件并及时处理,对同行评议周期控制具有直接影响。本文通过问卷调查和个案数据揭示进度跟踪的现状及问题。结果显示:1)期刊对同行评议进度跟踪主要依赖系统提醒,但大多期刊仅将其设置在临近审稿期限；超过一半的编辑几乎不进行人工跟踪。2)72.86%的编辑虽然要求专家回复审稿邀请以获得进度信息,但是有的期刊既无回复期限,也无便捷的回复操作,降低专家及时回复的概率。个案数据分析发现:审稿提醒对及时发现异常进度有积极作用,需高度关注系统提醒1次后仍未收到专家反馈的稿件。建议学术期刊应重视进度跟踪作用,多维优化系统提醒功能,提高人工跟踪的精准性,推行“嵌入服务式”人工跟踪,细化审稿邀请内容,以确保尽早发现进度异常稿件,实现同行评议过程的有效跟踪与管理。

英文摘要:

The progress tracking of peer review on detect manuscirpts with abnormal process in advance and therefore has a direct influence on peer review time control. The analysis based on 420 questionnaires shows:1)The progress tracking of peer review mainly depends on reminding e-mails sent by the manuscript platform, but the e-mails are sent closely before the peer review deadline. Most editors do not actively contact reviewers until the peer review deadline is due. 2)72.86% editors ask the reviewers for responding invitation e-mails, however, there is neither a replying deadline nor a convenient operation mode, which may reduce the incentives of reviewers’ reply in time. Then, a further analysis on 496 case data reveals that it is necessary to set reminding e-mails from the platform and track the process of peer review manually as early as possible, especially when reviewers haven’t replied the first reminding. Based on the surveys and the interviews, the paper proposes the following optimization strategies:1) Put more emphasis on the progress tracking. 2) Optimize the functions of reminders from the platform from many angles. 3) Indentify the key objects tracked by editors. 4) Promote the progress tracking embedded the service for reviewers. 5) Refine the invitation letters of peer review. These strategies will help editors to detect abnormal manuscripts during the peer review as early as possible and realize the effective peer review tracking and management.
