Open Peer ReviewThe Good, the Bad and the Ugly
What IS “Open”?
More openness to provide assurance that you did what you said you would
Openness to share more, but not all, information about the process
Open the box to show everything you did
Open to all to view and participate
There’s not just one “right” approach
One size does not fit all
Before Opening the Box
PROS Increased level of trust & transparency Reviewers will think more carefully about the research and provide more
attentive, detailed comments May expose possible conflicts of interest Reduction of antagonistic comments and unsupported criticisms Post-publication open review may result in a larger pool of reviewers Faster speed to publication Reviewers are acknowledged and get credit for their contributions
CONS Increased difficulty in finding reviewers (Reality check!) Younger scientists may feel it difficult to be completely candid, knowing that the
author they are reviewing may have influence over their future Well-known authors could receive preferential treatment There may be legal and copyright issues to consider
Pros & Cons of Open Review
I’d like your honest opinion on something…..
We support validation of all approaches to peer review
We support sharing additional information around the peer review process while respecting the need for anonymity
We support more open approaches, if desired
We want to help reviewers get credit for the valuable service they perform
