jmis-review-process

Use when calibrating expectations for the Journal of Management Information Systems (JMIS) editorial process — the EIC-led, email-intake, double-anonymized review by Associate Editors and expert referees, likely decision types, and timing. Sets expectations and revision posture; it does not draft the response letter (jmis-rebuttal).

# Review Process (jmis-review-process)

## When to trigger

- Before submitting, to understand who decides and how long it takes at JMIS
- A decision letter arrived and you need to read its severity correctly before responding
- You are weighing JMIS against MISQ/ISR/JAIS on process and turnaround
- You want to know what a desk-reject vs. a review-and-reject signals

## How JMIS review actually runs

JMIS is an **Editor-in-Chief-led** journal: founding and current EIC **Vladimir Zwass** receives submissions directly by email and steers the process. Papers are **refereed in a double-anonymized process** by internationally recognized expert referees and by **Associate Editors** on the Editorial Board. Practically, this means:

- **The EIC is the first gate.** A paper that is out of scope (not an IS-management/economics question), over length, or not anonymized can be returned or desk-rejected before external review. Fit is judged against JMIS's management/economics-of-IS identity, not generic IS breadth.
