투고한 논문을 수정하는 과정에서 범하는 가장 큰 실수 중의 하나는, 리뷰어의 의견이 어느 곳에, 그리고 어떻게 반영이 되었는지를 명확하게 표시하지 않는다는 점 입니다. 논문의 ‘몇 번째 페이지’ 에서 수정된 사항을 리뷰어가 확인할 수 있는지, 그리고 수정된 내용은 ‘무엇’ 인지를 정확하게 알려주어야 합니다.
아래의 예문과 같습니다.

Reviewer’s comments :
In section 4.1 more detail should be given about the nature of the qualitative comments sought and what they revealed about the items.
The authors’ action :
Thank you. We have modified the part of ‘4.1. Development of Measurement Instrument’(pp.17) as below :
“Lastly, the instrument was translated into Korean, and pilot-tested with twenty master students. The purpose was to ensure clarity, completeness, and readability. Open-ended qualitative comments were sought from them. For example, one of the authors asked them whether questionnaire items were clear to understand or confusing. Several items were refined accordingly in wording and incorporated into the final version of the questionnaire.”
