Understanding Journals: Scholarly, Peer-Reviewed

A “scholarly” or “academic” journal articles are written by experts in a particular field of study. Scholarly journal articles, unlike web-based or popular magazine articles, are designed and structured to provide the elements necessary to most thoroughly evaluate the validity and truth of an author's position.

Please keep in mind that not all scholarly journals go through the peer-review process.

Peer reviewed articles are written by experts and are reviewed and critiqued by several other experts in the same subject area.

Scholarly articles are research focused, reporting results of original research and experimentation. They are heavily cited in the form of either footnotes or bibliographies, and written by, and addressed to, experts in a discipline. However, whereas peer-reviewed articles require a strict "peer-approval" for publishing, a scholarly articles that is not peer-reviewed only requires the approval of an editorial board.
