When looking back on 2021, the Journal of Management Control proceeded on its path to become an even more internationally recognized and successful journal in the field of management control. In 2021, we received 133 submissions; this is double the number of submissions of 2018. In addition, our journal is becoming more and more international with corresponding authors coming from 39 different countries and reviewers from 22 different countries in 2021. Both the increase in the number of submissions as well as the diverse set of authors and reviewers suggests that the strategy to pursue international growth and recognition appears to have been implemented successfully.
The average time between the receipt of the manuscript and the first decision (submission to first decision) is only 50 days and stable over the years. While we aim for a fast decision, we do not want to further drive down this relative low response time for the first decision; we want to encourage and enable reviewers to thoroughly review a paper without too much time pressure and allow editors to make solid final decisions which are helpful for authors to further develop their papers. During the Covid-pandemic, we experienced that reviewers also needed the time, given the conflicting demands and pressures that they were facing. The first round rejection rate is 81.0%, standing for the high standards of our journal and the rigor in our review processes.
