Note: Not everything published in a scholarly journal undergoes the peer-review process. When limiting to "peer-reviewed", OneSearch catalog and library databases are filtering by the type of journal, and not distinguishing the variety of content in the journal, which can also include editorials and book reviews that are not peer-reviewed. Additionally, the peer-review and publication process often takes a year or longer, so it might be hard to find peer-reviewed articles for emerging topics/events.
This guide provides an introduction to the biases in systems of publication in academia. In order to critically engage with scholarship, scholars must be aware of the inherent problems within the system of academic scholarship. The guide will provide an overview to thinking about these biases in peer review, citation practices, the organization of scholarship within databases, and the language used to organize and product such scholarship.
