Author Instructions
9.3 Process
Soft Science operates a single-blind review process, which means that reviewers know the names of authors, but the names
of the reviewers are hidden from the authors. The scientific quality of the research described in the manuscript is assessed
by a minimum of three independent expert reviewers. The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for the final decision regarding
acceptance or rejection of the manuscript.
9.4 Decisions
Your research will be judged on technical soundness only, not on its perceived impact as judged by Editors or referees.
There are three possible decisions: Accept (your study satisfies all publication criteria), Invitation to Revise (more work is
required to satisfy all criteria), and Reject (your study fails to satisfy key criteria and it is highly unlikely that further work
can address its shortcomings).
