Also, I'll say from my own perspective (which is probably not worth much!) that I don't prefer this practice as a reader. It makes it difficult to access all of the information needed for context when having to refer between two different documents. I think there might be some complications when submitting ...

Thanks for sharing, Alissa. I blocked off some time Monday morning to read and very much look forward to it. Looks like a very thorough and fascinating article with great import and I look forward to chatting with Sarah about it too since we are colleagues at UMass. As it happens, our evidence synthesis ...

If no one minds, I plan to make PRESS review requests through this forum in the future. Also, if anyone is looking to have their search strategy peer-reviewed, I ...
