Definition of a PEER REVIEWED ARTICLE

Peer Reviewed Articles

Peer-reviewed articles have been evaluated by several researchers or subject specialist in the academic community prior to accepting it for publication. Also known as scholarly or refereed.
Verify that a journal is peer reviewed (refereed) by looking it up via the University Library website.
Remember that there may be content in peer reviewed journals which is not peer reviewed.  These may be book reviews, letters, or front and back matter.  In most cases, though, the research articles within will be peer reviewed. Consult a librarian if you're not sure.  (libanswers.uvic.ca/a.php?qid=79020)

• be written by "experts" (i.e. scholars) for others in the field using a particular language
• include a list of References or Works Cited
• include an abstract (or summary)
• may have charts, diagrams, or tables
