Feedback 2 | Reviewer name: Mads Kronholm Petersen
Question 1
Quality of the summary:
Does the summary make the key focus, insights and/or contribution of the article clear?
- A: Yes.
What would you suggest to improve?
- A: Nothing, except the layout. Make it a bit more rich with some line breaks.
Question 2
Structure and logic of the article:
Is the argument clear?
- A: Yes.
Is there a logical flow to the article?
- A: Yes. It is described what the following consist of, which is nice for the reader to know.
Does one part build upon the other?
- A: Yes, fine with the current skeleton.
Is the article consistent in its argument and free of contradictions?
- A: Yes.
What would you suggest to improve?
- A: Add sources and add more text. The end of the article is thin.
Question 3 Grammar and style: Is the writing free of grammatical and spelling errors?
- A: Yes.
Is the language precise without unnecessary fill words?
- A: The wording is fine. I would recommended delete the word “nowadays” in the abstract.
- Note 1: I like the use of bullet’s, bold and italic and quotes.
- Note 2: Move the , after the word “planning” in stages of negotiation. And use . after “below”.
Question 4
Figures and tables: Are figures and tables clear?
- A: Not used.
Do they summarize the key points of the article in a meaningful way?
- A: Not used.
What would you suggest to improve?
- A: Add tables and figures.
Question 5
Interest and relevance:
Is the article of high practical and / or academic relevance?
- A: Fine.
Is it made clear in the article why / how it is relevant?
- A: Yes, the abstract explains it quite good.
Question 6
Depth of treatment:
Is the article interesting for a practitioner or academic to read?
- A: Yes.
Does it make a significant contribution beyond a cursory web search?
- A: I think it does.
Question 7
Annotated bibliography:
Does the article properly cite and acknowledge previous work?
- A: No, since there is no specific reference. I like the use of “According to Lewicki,…”.
Does it briefly summarize the key references at the end of the article?
- A: No.
Is it based on empirical data instead of opinion?
- A: I cannot tell, since the reference is not clear. Stating the author in the text as mention above, proves that some of it is based on empirical data.
