Composition of editorial boards and peer review policies of Croatian journals indexed in Web of Science and Scopus

Abstract

Croatia, when compared to its neighbouring countries, has the largest number of journals per scientist and per Gross Domestic Product. The aim of our study was to evaluate the composition of editorial structures and transparency of peer review policies of Croatian journals indexed in Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus. Our study showed a lack of transparency of peer review processes in Croatian scientific journals as described in publicly available information for authors. More research is needed to determine the impact of the editorial structures and work on the international recognition of journals from small scientific communities, such as Croatia.
