A few aspects of your application need to be considered when selecting an electronic examiner. Each reviewer receives a structured electronic template. This template offers a step to organize the review. It will also provide information about the conflict of interests of the electronic reviewer. The key to a high-quality application is a well-structured electronic evaluation.
Structured electronic templates
To help reviewers structure their reviews, the Structured electronic reviewer template has been created. This template helps reviewers concentrate on the key findings and points. It also indicates revisions needed for publication and possible changes. It also indicates any referee issues that may be relevant for the article. It is used by reviewers for providing feedback on submitted manuscripts.
The Structured electronic reviewer template was introduced to the journal in August 2010. More than 80 reviews are now completed every month since the new process was introduced to the journal in August 2010. The aim of this study is to determine the impact of the structured electronic reviewer template on manuscript reviews.
Conflicts of interest for electronic reviewers
Reviewers who are electronic should be aware that there may be a conflict of interest and report it to the journal. A conflict of interests is any situation in which a reviewer may have an interest that would affect his or her ability conduct fair and objective evaluations of the work. Relevant commercial relationships include research funding, grants, research materials, and in-kind services.
A reviewer's personal or business relationships can create conflicts of interest. These conflicts can arise from personal relationships, academic competition, or intellectual passion.
