Guidelines for OMEGA Reviewers
General
The goal of OMEGA review process is to
evaluate the accuracy and significance of the submitted manuscripts and
to provide the authors with constructive and timely feedback.
All submissions are to be reviewed for
overall fit according to the Aims and Scope of the Journal. Please see https://www.journals.elsevier.com/omega/
The Editor-in-Chief first screens all
submissions.
It is OMEGA policy to use a single-blind
review process by at least two referees. (i.e., referees know the names
of the authors but authors do not know the names of the referees). The
primary responsibility of the referees is to review the paper with
respect to correctness and exposition. Referees are free to comment on
whether the article fits well with the journal objectives but the
Editor-In-Chief makes the ultimate decision on that.
OMEGA requests that all referees complete
their reviews within 6 weeks in order to permit prompt feedback to the
authors. Revised papers should be reviewed within 4 weeks.
Items to look for
Here are some items the reviewer should
consider during the review process:
Does this manuscript make a substantial
contribution to the literature?
Is the topic appropriate?
Is the literature review appropriate?
Is the paper intellectually stimulating?
Are the procedures, methods and data analysis appropriate?
Is the paper technically sound?
Should material be omitted or added?
Should material be moved to or from an appendix?
Is the paper clearly written?
Is there a concise abstract?
Is the grammar satisfactory?
Are the references complete?
Is the title appropriate?
Does the paper have applied value?
