What is a peer-reviewed, refereed or scholarly journal?
Peer-reviewed or refereed journals are sometimes refered to as scholarly and contain articles that have gone through a peer-review process. When an author submits an article for publication it is sent to others in that field of study for review. The reviewers will often suggest changes for the author to make and decide if the article should be printed at all.
