2. Scholarly journals vs. popular magazines > Definitions Articles in scholarly journals go through the peer review process before they are accepted for publication. In the peer review process, experts in the field examine articles before they are accepted. This insures that research published in peer reviewed or refereed journals is sound and of high quality.
