soctheory-review-process

separate

Use when you need to understand Sociological Theory (ST)'s double-anonymous peer review and interpret a decision letter focused on conceptual novelty and logical soundness. Explains the process and decision types; it does NOT draft the response document (that is soctheory-rebuttal).

When to use

• interpret ST decision letter
• understand ST review weights
• decide whether an R&R is worth pursuing
• read editor's signals
• triage reviewer comments
• identify desk-reject triggers
• map comments to specific skills
• judge if revision can meet the bar

When not to use

• draft the response document
• soctheory-rebuttal
