title: The Principles of Fair Allocation of Peer-Review: How Much Should a Researcher be Expected to Contribute?
abstract: There seems to be reluctance amongst scientists to invest some of their own time in the peer-review of manuscripts. As a result, journal editors often struggle to secure reviewers for a given manuscript in a timely manner. Here, two simple principles are proposed, which could fairly allocate the contribution of individual researchers to the peer-review process.
