Under review may refer to the initial review of the editorial department, then the selection and determination of the reviewer (Awaiting Reviewer selection), and waiting for the reviewer's confirmation (Awaiting Reviewer Assignment), and finally the review by the reviewer ( Awaiting Reviewer Scores).
Awaiting Reviewer selection and Awaiting Reviewer Assignment both refer to looking for or assigning reviewers. This process is the most time-consuming and editing effort at the first review stage.
1. In general, whether a magazine is reviewed or not has a lot to do with the editorial department's process. Some will forcefully invite a major revision to be submitted for review and review, and some will be directly decided by the editorial department after revision. The review is also related to whether the experts agreed to review the manuscript for the first time. Some reviewers will ask him to have a look after the revision, so that the editorial department will show him. Of course, some editors have relatively high academic standards, and the authors decide directly after modifying the manuscript.
I don’t know what the magazine mentioned upstairs is. Be specific Look at it.
2. If the opinions of the two experts disagree, the third reviewer will usually participate in the first review. The review opinions are inconsistent. Generally, a new expert will not be found for comments, and the editorial department will discuss and decide internally.
"Editor assigned" means that the editor has been determined for your article. In the next step, the editor will further process your manuscript. It can also be said that the editor has contacted the appropriate editor from the expert library (or the list of reviewers suggested by the author) The manuscript reviewer who reviewed the manuscript, and the writer said he has time and is willing to review the manuscript for the magazine. When the reviewer logs into the system to obtain the manuscript to be reviewed, the system will automatically change the status to "under review". "Editor assigned" appears again, indicating that the editor will perform further processing on your manuscript in the next step.
