• Article assessment is expressed in points
• If the article can be published in the journal the review should be unambiguous
• The Editorial Committee decides if an article is to be published in a given issue of the journal.

The submitted article is reviewed with regard to its: originality of the problem/methods, applied research methods, substantive level, degree of compliance of research purpose, selection and use of subject literature, clarity of disquisition (language, quotations, tables, figures), relevance of a research problem, application value.

A review shall be regarded as negative if at least one of the following three criteria of the article assessment fails:

The Econometrics journal provides its authors with a website where they can publish extra charts, figures and resources, which could not be included in the original article due to space limits. The authors decide how the materials are accessed and all co-authors consent regarding publishing the materials should be included. In order to do so, please contact the managing editor.

Citation policy, publication and research ethics
