How to Write an Effective Referee Report (Berk et al. 2017) | JEP ABDC-A*

Welcome to Revise and Resubmit, the podcast where we dive deep into the heart of academic research, peer reviews, and the very process that shapes scholarly work. I’m your host, and today, we have a fascinating discussion lined up, one that will not only shed light on the often complex world of referee reports but also help improve the scientific review process itself. We’re going to unpack an insightful paper titled How to Write an Effective Referee Report and Improve the Scientific Review Process (https://doi.org/10.1257/jep.31.1.231) , authored by Jonathan B. Berk, Campbell R. Harvey, and David Hirshleifer. This paper, published in the prestigious Journal of Economic Perspectives, a top-tier ABDC A* journal, addresses the mounting issues in the peer review process—issues like excessive revisions, unnecessary robustness checks, and the troubling inconsistencies among referees. These authors, drawing on their own editorial experiences and interviews with former editors of high-impact journals, pinpoint common mistakes referees make and offer a roadmap to improve the way we review academic papers. It’s an essential read for anyone in the academic world, whether you're a reviewer, an author, or an editor. Before we dive in, a huge thank you to both the authors and the publisher, the American Economic Association, for their contributions to advancing this critical conversation. And as we explore this topic, I encourage you to subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify and check out our YouTube channel, Weekend Researcher. We're also available on Amazon Prime and Apple Podcasts for those of you on the go. So, what can we do to make the peer review process more efficient and less burdensome? How can we ensure that reviews improve research without stifling creativity and innovation? Stick around as we dive into these questions and more. Reference Berk, Jonathan B., Campbell R.
