如何回复审稿人意见
如何回复审稿人意见:
意见1:
所有问题必须逐条回答。
2.尽量满足意见中需要补充的实验。
3.满足不了的也不要回避,说明不能做的合理理由。
4.审稿人推荐的文献一定要引用,并讨论透彻。
5.老师说的4点,确实很有道理。
不过审稿人提出要补充的实验,如果不是非做不可的,还是可以进行解释。
我也为国外的杂志审过稿,有时审稿人即使想接受你的文章,总还要提出一些不足之处,如果文章没有那些不足之处,也许文章就会投给更高IF的杂志了。
所以,如果你真的不想补充实验或者补充很困难,可以合理的解释,一般没问题的。
国外杂志要求补充实验的,我均以解释而过关,原因见少帖)。
还因为:
很少杂志编辑把你的修改稿再寄给当初审稿人的,除非审稿人特别请求。
编辑不一定懂你的东西,他只是看到你认真修改,回答疑问了,也就接受了(当然高档杂志可能不是这样,我的经验只限定一般杂志(影响因子1-5)。
我常用的回复格式,呵呵。
Dearreviewer:
Iamverygratefultoyourcommentsforthemanuscript.Accordingwithyouradvice,weamendedtherelevantpartinmanuscript.Someofyourquestionswereansweredbelow.
引用审稿人推荐的文献的确是很重要的,要想办法和自己的文章有机地结合起来。
至于实验大部分都可以不用补做,关键是你要让审稿人明白你的文章的重点是什么,这个实验对你要强调的重点内容不是很必要,或者你现在所用的方法已经可以达到目的就行了。
最后要注意,审稿人也会犯错误,不仅仅是笔误也有专业知识上的错误,因为编辑找的审稿人未必是你这个领域的专家。
只要自己是正确的就要坚持。
在回复中委婉地表达一下你的意见,不过要注意商讨语气哦!
我的回复,请老外帮忙修改了
