Recognition: JGE provides annual certificates documenting review contributions suitable for tenure and promotion files. We acknowledge reviewers in annual reports published on the journal website.
Invitation Process
Registered reviewers receive invitations based on keyword matching with submitted manuscript topics. You are never obligated to accept invitations and should decline when timing conflicts, expertise mismatches, or conflicts of interest exist. Prompt responses to invitations help editors maintain efficient review timelines.
Invitation frequency varies based on manuscript submissions in your expertise areas. Active reviewers who consistently deliver quality, timely reviews receive priority for manuscripts closely matching their expertise and may be nominated for editorial board positions.
Profile Management
Reviewers may update their keyword profiles to reflect evolving research interests and expertise areas. Notify the editorial office if you wish to temporarily suspend invitations during sabbaticals or heavy workload periods. Accurate profiles enable better manuscript-reviewer matching and more efficient review processes.
