  • Desk rejection with Katie Witkiewitz
    May 13 2025

    In this episode, Dr Casy Calver talks to Dr Katie Witkiewitz about her experience as an editor and specifically about desk rejection – sometimes called ‘reject without review’. Katie describes some of the reasons that articles are rejected without going to peer-review, including there being too many similar studies already in the journal, page limits, articles being outside the scope of the journal, (avoidable) issues of quality. She then gives her top tips for how best to avoid and cope with desk rejection.

    "You know, I think in the stress and strain of getting a paper out you don't re-read it in its entirety often, right? It's been through a lot of edits, maybe you were just frantically getting it in the journal format in the last minute you made some changes to get it in under word-count. But you didn't take a step back and re-read it."

    Dr Katie Witkiewitz is a Distinguished Professor of Psychology and the Director of the Center on Alcohol Substance Use and Addiction at the University of New Mexico, as well as the Editor of the journal Psychology and Addictive Behaviours.

    This episode was originally published on 19 March 2024 as a limited series on the Addictions Edited podcast.

  • Common submission errors with Paul Dietze
    May 13 2025

    In this episode, Dr Casy Calver talks to Professor Paul Dietze about common submission errors. They explore how to avoid desk rejection, why it’s essential to understand a journal’s scope before submitting, and the need to follow a journal’s author guidelines closely. They also highlight the value of using person-first and non-stigmatising language.

    “Whatever you do, don't annoy the editor. And one way to annoy an editor is to send in a crappy abstract or a misleading title.”

    Paul Dietze is Executive Editor of the Drug and Alcohol Review journal and an ISAJE board member. He is also Professor at the National Drug Research Institute and Co-Director of the Disease Elimination Program at the Burnet Institute in Melbourne, Australia. Paul has published over 350 journal articles and numerous book chapters spanning the epidemiology of alcohol and other drug use and related harms through to clinical intervention studies. He has a strong interest in developing early career researchers and responding to ‘predatory publishers’ and journals.
