commres-review-process

Use to understand how Communication Research (CR) evaluates a manuscript — double-anonymized review, editorial screening for quantitative/theory fit, external review, and the requirement that two independent positive reviews back a Revise or Accept decision. Sets expectations and shapes the paper to survive review; it does not contact editors.

# Review Process (commres-review-process)

Knowing how CR screens and decides lets you pre-empt the failure modes before submitting. CR is
**double-anonymized** and is a **quantitative, theory-testing** journal, so it screens for both fit and
methodological rigor.

## When to trigger

- Before submitting, to stress-test fit, rigor, and anonymization
- Deciding whether the contribution is quantitative and theory-testing enough for CR
- Interpreting a decision letter and setting expectations
- Understanding what reviewers are instructed to weigh
