对于经常投稿的科研工作者来说,可能会遇到杂志审稿周期较长的情况,这个时候可能会纠结是否催稿的问题。对于是否催稿,如何催稿,我有以下几点看法。

首先要做好投稿前的公关工作。正所谓工欲善其事必先利其器,做好投稿前的工作是非常必要的。你可以在丁香园搜索目标杂志的信息,以Annals of Oncology为例,在搜索界面输入Annals of Oncology,你可以看到很多战友的求助以及经验分享等,从中你可以获取很多信息,包括杂志影响因子、每年收录的文章、审稿周期、投稿经验等,这样对杂志有个初步的认识,而且有很多投稿人的经验可以借鉴。可以了解杂志的审稿周期,做到心中有数。

另外在杂志主页的投稿须知中也有关于审稿周期的问题,在投稿前了解了这些内容,做到胸有成竹也不是不可能了。所以投稿须知是要仔细阅读的。总之,做好投稿前的准备工作,就会事半功倍,如果前期工作做得不充分,投稿的时候也会一头雾水,往往会事倍而功半,效率大打折扣了。

The editorial office will rapidly review the manuscripts in order that new findings may appear with minimum delay. The editorial office will return to authors within 3 weeks, whenever possible, all papers that are found to be of insufficient priority for further consideration. Papers of high interest will be sent out for external review. Authors will normally be notified of acceptance, rejection, or need for revision within 6 weeks of submission. Contributors will be provided with an electronic pdf proof, and corrections must be returned within three working days.

个人觉得,在审稿过程中能不催稿尽量不要选择催稿,杂志社有自己的一套稿件处理的流程,一般是编辑先对稿件进行评价,如果觉得稿件适合杂志要求,然后再邀请审稿人,之后才是正式的审稿过程,在审稿人处理完稿件后,再将审稿意见反馈给杂志社,杂志社通过对审稿意见和文稿进行评价,最后再将审稿意见反馈给投稿人。

如果有特殊情况需要催稿,也一定要注意方式方法,尽量以委婉的语气表达我们的意见,但也要指出问题所在,比如说审稿周期超过杂志要求等。网上会有很多催稿信的模板,你可以自行下载然后修改,我自己整理了一份,有不合适的地方欢迎校正。

Dear editor/professor,

I feel so sorry for troubling you. I do not know whether it is the appropriate time to contact with you. I have submitted one article entitled “****” in the journal “****” for over 3 months. Usually, the review time of manuscripts in your journal is less than 3 months. However, we have not received the comments of our manuscript yet. Could you help check the progress and current status of my manuscript please?

Thanks very much for your kindness and looking forward to hearing from you. Wish you happy every day!

Yours, Sincerely

总结一下,在投稿之前一定要做好投稿前工作,熟悉杂志的审稿周期等内容,在杂志审稿周期范围内尽量不要选择催稿,如果超过审稿周期时间较长,可以选择催稿,但语气一定要委婉客气,此外不要频繁地催稿。另外,对于催稿信的问题,网上会有很多模板供你选择,你也可以从网上下载一份,然后再根据自己需求改一下就可以用了。
