A peer-reviewed journal, also sometimes called an academic or scholarly journal, is one where the quality of articles is maintained through a review process conducted by experts prior to publication. Not all academic journals are peer-reviewed, but all peer-reviewed journals are academic.
Articles submitted to a refereed or peer-reviewed journal are examined by one or more people with expertise in the field with which the article deals. This process gives the scholar community some assurance that the information in the article is valid and credible.
