Open Reviewers Review Assessment Rubric

The Review Assessment Rubric is meant for anyone who is evaluating a research manuscript’s review. This may include a teacher in the context of peer review training, a peer helping the review author evaluate their review, or even the review author themselves to self-evaluate their own review. The rubric comprises 10 statements for which the evaluator is asked to provide a score and a written comment to help improve the review.

This Review Assessment Rubric is part of a toolkit developed in the context of PREreview Open Reviewers. The other two guides published in the toolkit are the Bias Reflection Guide and the Reviewer Guide.
