> Panel Reviewer Selection Criteria
> Review panels will be constituted to be inclusive of well-qualified
> researchers knowledgeable across the span of research topics, methods, and
> modes of inquiry likely to be considered by a submission unit. The criteria
> for invited panel reviewers include such considerations as:
> (a) experience in some form of peer reviewing,
> (b) service on other professional review panels,
> (c) knowledge of the field,
> (d) scholarly productivity or roles that require research expertise,
> (e) knowledge of the emerging literature, and
> (f) broad knowledge of a range of researchers and research specialties in
> an area.
> Graduate students may be invited to serve as panel reviewers. Each
> submission will be reviewed by at least three reviewers and may be reviewed
> by a graduate student or students serving as additional reviewers. All
> reviews, including graduate student reviews, will be provided to
> submitters, although graduate student review scores are not included in the
> scoring calculations. When graduate students are serving as panel
> reviewers, the unit program chair is encouraged to incorporate a plan to
> provide feedback and mentoring to graduate students to enrich the
> educational value of this experience.
>
> Please, let me or Aria know if you have any additional questions about it.
> Cheers,
> Natalia.
