AAAS Resolution:
Reaffirmation of Commitment to Scientific Peer Review

Whereas the partnership between the government and the community of scientists is essential to the advancement of science, and

Whereas without broadly based, consistent, critical, and professional evaluation of proposed expenditures for scientific work, there is a growing danger that the quality of research and education in science will be jeopardized,

Be it resolved that the Council of the AAAS reaffirm its commitment to the principle and practice of scientific peer review as indispensable to the allocation of public funds for the scientific enterprise.

[Adopted by the AAAS Council, May 30, 1985.]
