Publication guidelines
Peer-Reviewing
In line with quality assurance, all research articles (but not editorials, interviews, reviews and contributions under "Forum") are evaluated anonymously and on the basis of a list of criteria by two independent peers. Their comments are notified to the author with the request for incorporation into the article. The article cannot be published until the phase of peer-reviewing has been passed successfully and the revision – where applicable – has taken place.
