A journal is a periodical for scholarly research. Journals often contain technical articles and book reviews. The intended audience is often other scholars or experts in the field of the publication. Magazines are, on the other hand, non-technical periodicals intended for a more general audience.
- Peer-Reviewed refers to journals that employ a process of review by qualified individuals (usually with a PhD and extensive experience) from the field covered by the Publication.
- Open-source refers to journals that are freely available online. Though there are peer-reviewed open-source journals, some are not peer-reviewed.
