jmf-review-process

Use to understand how the Journal of Marriage and Family (JMF) evaluates a manuscript — double-blind anonymous peer review, editor and reviewer roles (typically three reviewers, ~21-day review window), the revise-and-resubmit pathway, and what triggers desk handling. Sets expectations and shapes the paper to survive review; it does not contact editors.

# Review Process (jmf-review-process)

Knowing how JMF screens and decides lets you pre-empt failure modes before submitting. JMF is
**double-blind**: reviewers do not know who you are and you do not know them, so anonymization is not
optional. Use the current NCFR pages for live editor roster, portal, and timeline checks.

## When to trigger

- Before submitting, to stress-test against likely reviewer objections
- Interpreting a decision letter and setting expectations
- Understanding what reviewers and editors are instructed to weigh
- Deciding whether the work is ready or needs another round before submission
