回复审稿人意见的主要原则:
第三,有的审稿人与文章的研究方向有差异,或者没有认真读文章,导致对文章的理解有误,从而提出一些莫名其妙的问题。回答这些问题的时候,可以首先引用一下文章的相关句子,然后指出文章的真正意思。接着承认是自己的表达出现问题了,让审稿人曲解了意思,最后指出句子已经重写,表达的意思已经更准确了。这样的回答,既巧妙地回答了该问题,也避免了让审稿人尴尬。
第四,如果遇到了非常难回答的问题,比如审稿人质疑文章的创新性有限,价值不大。这些是文章的硬伤,是没有办法修改的。赞同审稿人的意见肯定不好,但是用回避的方式不回答更不好,既不礼貌也侧面赞同了审稿人。这个问题尽管很难回答,但是还是要去争取一下,比如再强调一下文章里面相关的几个句子。要知道每个人的见解不同,虽然一个审稿人觉得意义不大,但是决定权毕竟是在编辑手里,只要编辑在综合多个审稿人意见之后还觉得文章有可取之处,也就没有问题。而response letter是所有审稿人都可以看到的,诚恳的回答会获得其他审稿人的好感。
第五,审稿意见里面经常出现的问题是要求补充信息,比如更多的实验结果或者与该文章相关的另外的一些信息。这样的问题需要仔细斟酌一下,如果仅仅是审稿人出于自己的好奇,是可以选择在response letter 里提供而不是直接添加到文章里面。而如果对所有读者都有用,则需要加到文章里面。对于审稿人提出的不合理的建议,可以心平气和地找个客观的理由委婉地拒绝或者提供一些参考资料,不要让审稿人觉得你对他的问题视而不见。

1、文章格式错误、拼写错误、图表标错、语句有歧义等等
Response:直接回答之前的错误,现在已经改正就好了。
比如:We are very sorry for our careless mistake and it was rectified at Line…
这里修改内容和格式问题,做到准确无误,并确保图片清晰,一定要保证图片清晰!!!
2、要求加文献
审稿人说要加,那就加呗。
Response:As suggested by the reviewer, we have added more references in the introduction part. According to 文献 1, … is …
但是,如果是审稿人推荐的文献,引用需要慎重。
有的审稿人会让你在讨论中引用自己的文献。这时候要注意编辑态度。编辑可能会表示:Please be critical regarding the addition of the references suggested. Add them only if they are important to support your claims in…
一般如果是同方向的可以引用,不是同方向的则不建议。如果不愿意引用,一定要说明原因。
3、质疑内容
审稿人可能对文章产生质疑,比如研究方法等等。面对审稿人的质疑, 可以引用已发表文献来证明自己的文章,说服审稿人。
在引用文献时,注意引用高影响力和来自权威期刊的文章,最好选择中科院 2 区以上的,更具有说服力。引用文献记得附注在后面。
4、建议补充实验
这时,回复也分以下 3 种情况。
(1)做这个实验。
对审稿人的意见表示赞同(We agree that more study or more data would be useful to…)。
如果实验结果能说明问题,则要把结果补充到论文中。反之,要展示、分析数据,告知审稿人已做此实验,但没有得到有价值的结果,并阐明原因。
(2)没有实验条件,或者不能在短时期内做这个实验。
看看现有数据能不能同样说明科学问题,也可以补充其他相关实验数据辅助说明,实在不行,可以查阅文献,告诉审稿人其他文献也存在同样的情况。
可以表示后期如果条件成熟了,或许会进行审稿人说的相关研究,这部分可以写到 discussion 部分。
(3)觉得没有必要补实验。
这个时候需要给出自己的理由。最好罗列一些证据,或者引用其它文献来支撑自己的观点。
