  "definition": "1. A peer-reviewed (or refereed) journal uses a formal approval process for acceptance of articles. An editor and one or more subject specialists reviews the article before it is accepted for publication. This process is intended to ensure that the article is accurate, well-researched, and contributes to the body of knowledge in the field. Peer reviewed scientific papers are papers published after they have been reviewed by other scientists, knowledgeable in the field of inquiry, to determine whether the studies they describe are of reasonable quality and the conclusions reported are supported by the evidence. Reputable scientific journals use a process of peer review before accepting a paper for publication. We use Ulrich's Periodicals Directory to determine which journals are peer-reviewed.\n\n2.
