đď¸ Welcome to another episode of Revise and Resubmit! đď¸
The podcast where academic sweat turns into scholarly sparkle â¨âand we take you behind the scenes of the peer review process that shapes the future of research.
đ Today, weâre talking about something every scholar knows all too well...
Not the thrill of submission. Not the joy of acceptance.
But the murky middleâthe revise and resubmit.
đ The title of todayâs must-read paper?
âA Practical Guide for Successful Revisions and Engagements with Reviewersâ
Published in the Journal of the Association for Information Systems, a prestigious and powerful journal that holds ABDC A* statusâthe highest of the high. đđ
âď¸ Authored by two academic heavyweights:
Min-Seok Pang, a seasoned scholar with an eye for strategy, clarity, and structure.
Jason B. Thatcher, a powerhouse in the information systems world who knows exactly how to navigate the maze of manuscripts and reviewer memos.
This editorial is like a flashlight in a dark tunnel for every researcher facing that dreaded review packet. It shows you how to:
â
Decode reviewer feedback without losing your mind.
â
Rewrite your paper with precision and purpose.
â
Craft a response letter that doesnât just replyâit persuades.
And perhaps most powerfullyâit reminds us that being a great reviewer makes you a sharper author. That reading someone elseâs paper with care helps you return to your own work with fresh eyes, clearer judgment, and a bit more courage. đĄđ§
This isnât just a how-to. Itâs a survival guide. A pep talk. A scholarly compass.
So hereâs the question weâre leaving you with:
What if your next revise-and-resubmit wasnât a roadblock⌠but a roadmap to becoming a better researcher?
đ A huge thank you to Min-Seok Pang and Jason B. Thatcher, and to the Association for Information Systems for publishing such a valuable guide for researchers everywhere.
đ¨ Donât forget to subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify, Apple Podcast, and Amazon Prime! đ§
đş And for more academic storytelling magic, head over to our YouTube channel đ Weekend Researcher.
Because great research doesnât stop at publicationâit starts with the revision.
Letâs revise. Letâs resubmit. Letâs rethink everything.
