Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
In the past five years, the quality of TRE journals has significantly improved. In 2020, the number of submissions exceeded 2000, with an acceptance rate below 10%, indicating a high level of difficulty. With the appointment of two new editors-in-chief, the number of reviewers increased to 4-6 per article. Typically, accepted articles go through two rounds of major revisions, which fortunately only take about a month each. Overall, the review process is considered fast.

While the journal does not deliberately emphasize the fancy mathematical forms of TRB, it still requires high standards in modeling and expects insights and implications in the articles.

Although the journal's impact is slightly lower than TRB, it is noticeably higher than several other parts.

Journal double-blind review
The first review took 3 months, and major revisions were required.
During the second review, Reviewer 1 suddenly claimed that the model was incorrect and provided a counterexample, leading to rejection. The editor rejected the paper, but Reviewers 2 and 3 agreed to accept it.
The author defended against Reviewer 1's counterexample, and the editor and Reviewer 1 agreed to reconsider. Reviewer 1 suggested conducting an additional experiment, which required major revisions.
Finally, the paper was accepted after the third review, which took a total of 8 months.
Personally, I feel that the reviewers chosen by this journal are not fellow experts in the field, and some of the questions raised were not very professional.
