For a journal to be successful editors must make good decisions – both on the types of articles they want to publish, the authors they wish to attract, and the feedback they provide. To be a successful editor, individuals must show good judgement, empathy with authors, and the ability to provide feedback that substantially improves articles, and therefore the content that the journal publishes. This is such a vital issue that an entire workshop is being devoted to this topic.
This workshop will consider how decisions are made, implicit and explicit bias, how decisions are communicated to authors and the wider public, and how decisive skills can be improved.
Programme
This is Module 7 of the EASE Editorial School for Journal Editors, Part II. Modules are not available separately. The course is open to all, with discounts for EASE members and those in low income countries.
