En la de publicación científica, el revisor tiene un lugar esencial y, a la vez, discretamente invisible. Sus funciones son éticas académicas, éticas y formativas. Serlo no significa ejercer un juicio autoritario ni redactar una sentencia, más bien implica una gran responsabilidad con la comunidad académica que ha reconocido sus méritos. Pese a ello, la mayoría de las veces se realiza esta labor sin conciencia plena del impacto que la evaluación puede ejercer sobre una trayectoria investigativa o incluso sobre una línea de trabajo. Mas allá del juicio, un buen par evaluador es un lector objetivo, crítico, cuidadoso y comprometido que se identifica como un conocedor del tema. No basta con identificar errores o emitir recomendaciones generales. Su dictamen debe contribuir con base en criterios técnicos sólidos, a la mejora del manuscrito conservando siempre profundo respeto por los autores y el tema tratado. Por lo anterior, la revisión debe ser útil para el autor y para el editor, actuando como una oportunidad más mejoramiento de un manuscrito en desarrollo con oportunidad de publicación. Como señala el Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), los revisores deben "valorar los méritos del artículo con objetividad, sin prejuicios personales ni consideraciones de nacionalidad, género, religión o afiliación institucional" [1].
