jedpsych-review-process

Use when you need to understand how the Journal of Educational Psychology evaluates a manuscript — masked peer review, editorial weighting of educational relevance, theory, design rigor (nesting/power), and transparency, desk-reject patterns, and the role of preregistration and JARS. Use when stress-testing a paper before submission or interpreting a decision letter. Sets expectations and shapes the paper to survive review; it does not contact editors.

# Review Process (jedpsych-review-process)

The Journal of Educational Psychology combines selectivity for **educational importance** with rigorous
methodological scrutiny. Under **masked review**, both author and reviewer identities are hidden, and
editors and expert reviewers weigh not only whether the finding is interesting but whether it is
**theoretically grounded**, **rigorously designed for its nested setting**, and **transparent**. Knowing
this lets you pre-empt the common rejection reasons.

## When to trigger

- Before submitting, to stress-test the manuscript
- Deciding whether to preregister and how to present transparency
- Interpreting a decision letter and setting expectations
