As a social scientist, I keep getting #review invites from one of the most prestigious journals in my field for papers from the natural sciences, i.e. concerning the content of some chemical etc. Anyone who has looked at even a single one of my publications, or my profile on any website, or my CV would know immediately there is no way I can review these papers. So what does this tell about the quality of the #reviewprocess? 🤔 @academicchatter

It's double blind peer review. But also, it's one of the most prestigious journals in my field. This is what shocks me. I wouldn't be surprised about this kind of practice in a predatory journal but at this level?
@mfi@academicchatter absolutely, not so far of, but within the general topic out of my scope. I mentioned this several times, clarified my entry in their reviewer database, but get still review requests for unsuitable papers/ articles.
Very proud to share my newly published paper on #ConflictDynamics 🥳 We used #QualitativeComparativeAnalysis (#QCA) to determine which conditions explain latent, collaborative, or escalated dynamics in #LandUseConflicts (and how to get people to work together more often in these conflicts). It's the centerpiece of my PhD project. Feels amazing to have this milestone finished 😊
