Abstract

This article presents results from a study of 74 Social Science Croatian journal editors that asked about challenges encountered during their work, with a special focus on peer review processes. The study used an online questionnaire with 19 questions. The findings confirmed many logistics challenges and peer review‐related problems associated mostly with substandard work of the reviewers; author misconduct, especially plagiarism; and multiple submission of articles. The findings show similar problems to other regions of the world, and some problems discovered in this study demonstrate unique problems encountered within a small research community. The discovered problems call for changes and new editorial procedures.
