Screening for technical standards Before papers are passed to peer reviewiers, Elsevier screens them to ensure they are of sufficient quality and that they adhere to the Guide for Authors. Papers that do not meet this minimum technical standard will be returned to the submitting author(s), along with a checklist of missing or insufficient items. Authors will be able to resubmit once they have addressed these technical insufficiencies.
