Nearly two-thirds of researchers in a new survey say they’re happy with peer review

new survey of more than 3,000 researchers and their views on measures of scientific rigor finds that more of them now are satisfied with the peer review process than a decade ago. Here’s more: 
  • Overall trends: Some 69% of researchers reported being satisfied with the peer review process for publishing in 2009, but now some 75% say the same. 
  • Trust in research: More than 60% said they trusted the majority of research — whether data, papers, or videos — but about 37% said they doubted the quality of at least some such source in the week prior to being surveyed. 
  • By specialty: About 15% of those in the life sciences were likely to believe all the research they encountered was trustworthy, while only 11% of those in medicine thought the same.
