On Getting Published: Views from an AJAE Editor B. Wade Brorsen
How do I pick reviewers? • Own knowledge • References • Electronic search
Keys to Success in Publishing • Choose unimportant problems • Agree with current beliefs • Advocate one hypothesis • Write confusing prose • Use complicated methods • Avoid full disclosure of data and methods
Idealistic View-Contribution toKnowledge • Importance • Originality • Depth of Analysis • Overall quality • Appropriate for the journal
Editor’s Response • Accepted • Conditionally Accepted • Revise and Resubmit • Reject, but may reconsider • Reject
Priorities • Finish work in progress • Submit papers when 95% correct • Highest priority is positive reviews • Do whatever reviewers ask unless clearly wrong • Rejection is no big deal
