Peer-Reviewed Journal Articles

What are "peer-reviewed" journals?

A peer-reviewed journal is a special type of publication. Before articles are published within these types of journals, they are sent by the editors of the journal to other scholars in the field ("peers"), often anonymously, to get feedback on the quality of the scholarship, review research methods, as well as relevance or importance to the field. The article may be accepted, often with revisions suggested, or rejected for publication. Many journals have low acceptance rates. 

To find peer-reviewed articles in WPI Library Search, search for your keywords, and then choose the filter for Peer-Reviewed Journals on the left.
