Wouter,<br>
Perhaps a sample of what you are looking for is found in the
annual reports for the American Economic Association Journals.
These normally appear in the May Papers and Proceedings issue. Here
is a link to the most recent one<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.aeaweb.org/articles.php?doi=10.1257/aer.103.3">https://www.aeaweb.org/articles.php?doi=10.1257/aer.103.3</a> <br>
<br>
Take a look, for example at the reports for the American Economic
Review and for the <br>
various American Economic Journal: xxx<br>
They report the number of articles submitted, number accepted, a
list of referees, and so on. I think they also at least sometimes
report figures on delay times from submission to acceptance and or
publication.<br>
<br>
The January issues of Econometrica also have annual reports that
include most of this information.<br>
<br>
I would be interested to hear about other similar information that
you uncover.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Ted<br>
