Allen Esterson remarked: I can't help wondering why Kirsch et al chose to publish their articles in a "rapid publication electronic journal" (destined to fold in five years), rather than in one of the more well-known journals in which such specialist articles normally appear. How stringent can peer review be for articles covering so much ground if rapid publication is a priority? --------------- This criticism is unfair. Prevention and Treatment was a fully accredited APA journal with the same peer review process as used in print journals. It was an entirely appropriate place to publish this paper. It folded, not for academic, but economic reasons.
