Studies investigating the refusal rates of peer reviewing in journals

[Gemma Derrick]

Dear All,

 

We are wondering if someone would be able to help us locate a reference
regarding the refusal rates in peer reviewing in journals, or in other
words, how many potential reviewers decline the invitation to review a
paper or a research proposal.

 

Does anyone know of a study that investigated this?

 

Looking forward to your replies.

 

Kind regards,

Gjemma
