Sammanfattning
X : The Journal of the Norwegian Medical Association is a peer review-based general medical journal in Norwegian. Peer review is a hallmark of scientific medical journals. The purpose of a peer review system is to evaluate and secure that only high-quality, up-dated and relevant articles are offered to readers. Peer review has been criticised as being subjective, time-consuming and hindering new hypotheses and thinking. During the last years, peer review has been evaluated scientifically. Increased attention is being given to editorial work and to scientific writing and reading.
