Call for papers: Results-free peer review

BMC Psychology is participating in a pilot study of Results-free peer review. ‘Results-free’ means that editors and reviewers will be blinded to the study’s results during the initial stage of peer review. Research articles will be primarily assessed based on the scientific merits of the rationale and soundness of the methods alone, in the absence of results or discussion sections, which will be included later.

If you have any research you would like considered for Results-free peer review please see our Results-free research article submission guidelines for details on how to prepare your manuscript.
