and I'll do most of the work. Can we get a list of journal turnaround times going? This could be a real resource for academics in our discipline. If you would like to submit a journal name, the turnaround time, and the result that the turnaround time is referring to (first response, R&R, rejection, acceptance, etc) that would be great. I have created a google form through which you can submit your response: Submission through Google formOR you can just type it here. I will include it in a wiki that I will maintain so that it will not be hijacked by anonymous editors. Here is the wiki: Turnaround Wiki

Thanks a lot folks. I'm trying to update once a day for now. I will maybe slow to once a week after things seem to reach saturation.

Good to see that people are submitting. This could be really valuable. Is there any way to get this to be a permanent link on the front page?

This thread has been stickied and will always be on top of the "journals" subforum.

One suggestion for the wiki: Can we add an approximate time when these articles were submitted? For instance, something general like "Fall 2014" or "Spring 2013" would be helpful. This way we know what the trend is at the journal. Are turnaround times getting longer? Shorter?

It won't be reflected in the submissions that are currently posted, of course.

Looks like not very many people are actually getting published! All rejections and R&Rs...

I look at a doable R and R at a mid-tier journal as a likely eventual publication. If they invite it back, it should happen. Outright acceptances are rare.

I generally don't report acceptance turnaround times because those are generally shorter than actual review times for me. So my last publication I had a 3 month turnaround for the first "revise and resubmit" decision, and once I revised everything and submitted it all again I received an "accept" in less than a month, but that was just a bunch of reviewers just saying "thanks for revisions, go ahead and publish it" and as such wouldn't be representative of what people would want to know in such a wiki.

Hey folks. I just updated with the data that has come in including the time period of submission/review. I apologize for the delay (pesky NSF grant deadline). Keep it coming.
I also wonder whether I might transition to a different format. Perhaps one that will allow data on the overall process. For example, submission, first decision, second decision, third decision...for the same manuscript. This would give everyone a realistic snapshot of the overall time frame. As it is, the numbers are a bit misleading at least and unusable at most.
