同行评议给研究一个批准的印章，但评论本身可能有缺陷。这对作者、期刊和期刊用户来说可能是严重的。本研究描述了同行评议过程中的缺点，并将其浓缩成一个解释框架，涉及情境，个人，社会和道德因素。一些改善问题的建议是不切实际的，可能会使情况变得更糟。提供了一些数据，说明了问题，并提出了一个潜在的解决方案。避免机械方法的知情编辑谨慎和批判性地对待评论，并防止偏见，甚至在他们自己身上，可能会产生重大影响。
Peer review gives research a stamp of approval, but the reviews themselves can be flawed. This is potentially serious for the writer, the journal, and journal user. This study describes shortcomings of the peer review process and condenses them into an explanatory framework involving situational, personal, social, and ethical factors. Some proposals to improve matters are impractical and may make them worse. Some data is offered which illustrates the problem and suggests a potential solution. Informed editors who avoid mechanical approaches engage cautiously and critically with reviews and guard against bias, even in themselves, could make a significant difference.
