2004 Manuscript Review Process<br />
66<br />
Three unsolicited manuscripts were<br />
considered for possible publication<br />
in the Journal <strong>of</strong> the <strong>American</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> Dentistry during 2004. All<br />
three were reviewed, and one was<br />
accepted for publication.<br />
Seventeen reviews were received,<br />
an average <strong>of</strong> 5.7 per manuscript.<br />
Ninety-three percent <strong>of</strong> the reviews that<br />
expressed a clear view were consistent<br />
with the final decision regarding publication.<br />
Cramer’s V statistic, a measure <strong>of</strong><br />
consistency <strong>of</strong> ratings, was .866, showing<br />
very high consistency among reviewers.<br />
There is no way <strong>of</strong> comparing the consistency<br />
<strong>of</strong> the reviews for this journal<br />
with agreement among other publications<br />
because it is not customary for other<br />
dental journals to report these statistics.<br />
The <strong>College</strong> feels that authors are entitled<br />
to know the consistency <strong>of</strong> the review<br />
process. The Editor also follows the<br />
practice <strong>of</strong> sharing all reviews among<br />
the reviewers as a means <strong>of</strong> improving<br />
calibration.<br />
The Editor is aware <strong>of</strong> six requests to<br />
reprint articles appearing in the journal<br />
but no requests to copy articles for<br />
educational use received and granted<br />
during the year.<br />
In collaboration with the <strong>American</strong><br />
Association <strong>of</strong> Dental Editors, the <strong>College</strong><br />
sponsors a prize for a publication in any<br />
format presented in an AADE journal<br />
that promotes excellence, ethics, and<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>essionalism in dentistry. Fifteen<br />
manuscripts were nominated for<br />
consideration. The winner was a guest<br />
2004 Manuscript Review Process<br />
editorial by Dr. Steven A. Gold, “When<br />
nobody’s looking,” which appeared in the<br />
November 2003 issue <strong>of</strong> the CDA Journal.<br />
Thirteen judges participated in the<br />
review process. Their names are listed<br />
among the Journal reviewers below. The<br />
Cronbach alpha for consistency among<br />
the judges was an extremely high .959.<br />
The <strong>College</strong> thanks the following<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>essionals for their contributions,<br />
sometimes multiple efforts, to the dental<br />
literature as reviewers for the Journal<br />
<strong>of</strong> the <strong>American</strong> <strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Dentists</strong><br />
during 2004.<br />
