Quality reviews: Focus on constructive feedback that helps authors improve their psychotherapy research. Avoid purely critical comments without actionable suggestions for mental health manuscripts.
Effective reviews balance thoroughness with efficiency. Focus on substantive scientific issues while noting presentation concerns. Prioritize feedback on methodology, clinical validity, and therapeutic implications over minor stylistic matters for psychotherapy manuscripts.
