How we measure
- Time to first decision
- From submission to the first editorial decision (accept, revise or reject), desk decisions included.
- Time in peer review
- From the first reviewer invitation to the editorial decision that follows the reviews.
- Time to acceptance
- From submission to acceptance, revisions included.
- Time to publication
- From acceptance to publication online, after copyediting, typesetting and proofs.
- Acceptance rate
- Accepted manuscripts as a share of all manuscripts with a final decision (accepted or rejected), desk rejections included. Manuscripts still in review or revision are not counted.
Timings are medians, so a few unusually fast or slow manuscripts don't distort them. They are recalculated every day and whenever a manuscript changes status. See what each manuscript status means.
