As a reviewer, you will learn of the review request via email or by checking your dashboard:

From the Dashboard, My Assigned list, find the title, and Review link. Notice the lack of any author information in this double-blind peer-review process. Selecting the Review link will take you to the first review step in the submission record, which is much more limited than the editor's view, and contains no author information.

There are 5 steps that the system takes you through which are fairly easy to complete:

1. Notify the submissions editor as to whether you will undertake the review (Select Will do the review or Decline). If you decline, you will be dropped from the process.
2. Review Guidelines. 
3. Click on file names to download and review the files associated with the submission.
4. In addition, you can upload files for the editor and or author to consult.
5. Select a recommendation and submit the review to complete the process.

Your choices include:
Accept Submission: it is ready to go to Copyediting as is.
Revisions Required: it requires minor changes that can be reviewed and accepted by the editor.
Resubmit for Review: it requires major changes and another round of peer review.
Resubmit Elsewhere: it doesn't seem like a good fit for the focus and scope of this journal.
Decline Submission: it has too many weaknesses to ever be accepted.
See Comments: if none of the above recommendations make sense, you can leave a comment for the editor detailing your concerns.

Please be aware of the Review Schedule (our deadlines are firm) and follow the Review Steps listed.
