Peer reviewed journals are written by professionals on a topic within their field. The journals are then passed on to other credible professionals within the same field for editing purposes. They will occasionally edit for spellings and grammatical errors; however, their main focus is on the content of the journal and its validity. Peer reviewed articles ensure only valid, non-biased information is being published. The process of peer reviewing is beneficial to the journal because it validates the provided information from many credible sources and eliminates any bias that may have been in the original piece. By passing it onto several different professionals that are all diverse in their own ways, one expert may point out a bias and provide
Scholarly peer review, also known as refereeing, is the process of subjecting an author’s scholarly manuscript to the scrutiny of others who are experts and working in the same field (Ware 2013).

In The Everyday Writer, I strongly believed that chapter 10 “Reviewing & Revising” was most helpful as I could relate to some of its statements. I believed that by reviewing my work, I’m bound to discover mistakes. By doing so, I could make minor adjustment to my work. However, sometimes looking over my own work isn’t enough so, that’s where a peer reviewer comes in. A peer reviewer is someone who challenges your work. By doing so, they give me a strong sense of doubt as I tend to overlook certain areas yet, the peer reviewer that I came across didn’t really help.
A recently, much publicized, outbreak of measles in multiple states illustrate an evolving community health problem in America. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that 2014 had a significant increase in the number of measles case over when compared to the previous 15 years (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2015). This largely being the result of a debunked correlation between immunization shots and autism (Recame, 2012). The goal of this paper to identify the target population at risk, a collation needed to make changes within that population, interventions that could be taken, implementation of those interventions, and finally evaluation of interventions.
It is with great pleasure that the Hatfield Graduate Journal of Public Affairs staff and editors
1The purpose of the article of descriptive phenomenological study was to identify and describe the essential meaning structure in the experience of postpartum depression (PPD). 2They interviewed four women diagnosed with major depression and analyzed the data with Giorgi’s descriptive phenomenological method. Their analysis revealed two essential meaning structures of PPD. The first structure describes the mother as throw into a looming, dangerous world, coupled with a restricted, heavy body that hindered her attunement to her baby. Tormented by anxiety, guilt and shame, she tried to deal with her pain by

For me the hardest part of this the paper was finding the references. I struggled to find the peer reviewed journals. I ended up using the library references to find the peer reviewed journals. Once I found the web page to search the key words I was able to pull up peer reviewed journals. The paper that was provided by Professor Glenn was also very helpful. The emotional aspect of this paper was challenging. However, the paper allowed me to come to a better understanding of myself. For the first couple of stages I had to ask my parents about what I did. My mom enjoyed talking to me about my childhood. Reflecting on my past help me appreciate the life my parents provide for me. The stages I am in presently were easy to talk about. I did not have to ask other people about these years, I was able just to reflect on what I have done and see if I reached the goal. For the stages I have not reached I got to reflect on what I hope to
After a submitted article to any journal association is received, a peer review panel will singlehandedly challenge, suggest, or detect for structure, validity, plagiarism, suitability for publication and relevance. This imperative approach does not only provide a methodical protocol but will also illuminate the scientific population with a communicative growth after published. In other words, the very thought of having a genuine scientific theory, leading to a testable hypothesis and supporting your findings is, no doubt, extremely enticing, but it is only derivative work until it can maintain a foundational result; whilst, supporting or disproving any, if all,
Precisely which magazines will end up needing an injection of assistance will depend on how U.S. publishers decide to exploit their new access to the Canadian marketplace. The most likely strategy will be to keep shipping the same magazines already widely sold in Canada, but to start scooping up Canadian advertising profits, too. American magazines will be allowed, after a three-year phase-in period, to sell up to 18 per cent of their ad space to Canadian advertisers - without being required to spend a cent on Canadian articles or photographs. For three decades, Ottawa banned this sort of publication, known as a split run, and allowing them now is a major concession. Copps said the 18-per-cent limit would preserve advertising for homegrown

Reviewing my peer’s articles thought me a lot about where my writing stood in relation to my peers. It also taught me what flaws in writing I could fall victim to in the future. I also learned that my peers are great writers and could form arguments very efficiently. I think that all my peers did great research on their topics and very knowledgeable about them. We do have to use ethos is our papers and their first hand experience with interviews were great. The interviews had purpose and you can see that they put in effort to learn their audience and topic.
A survey conducted by Ware showed that a majority of authors (91%) believed that peer review led to significant improvements in their last published paper [13]. More than half of them agreed that the peer review effectively identified weaknesses and flaws in their manuscript (i.e. scientific errors, language and poor reference) [13].
“Peer review has been providing a valuable service to the scientific community since it was first employed in 1665 by the Royal Society’s Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, and its value is very difficult to measure”.
An example of peer-reviewed is a study published in a medical journal that two other doctors have read, commented on and tried to
