"The peer-review process tries to ensure that the highest quality research gets published.
When an article is submitted to a peer-reviewed journal, the editor decides if the article meets the basic requirements for inclusion, then sends it to be reviewed by other scholars (the author's peers) within the same field. These reviewers provide feedback to the editor to reject the paper, accept the paper as is, or accept the paper with author revisions.
