     Peer review is essential in scientific publishing to ensure research quality and credibility. Platforms like SciPinion ask this question to assess a reviewer’s recent engagement in evaluating research. Selecting "Within the past week" indicates frequent involvement, suggesting the reviewer is active, up to date with advancements, and experienced in assessing studies. "Within the past month" still reflects recent participation but may imply occasional reviewing. Tracking review frequency helps platforms engage qualified reviewers who contribute to maintaining high academic standards. This ensures that scientific evaluations are informed, credible, and relevant to ongoing research developments.

     As a researcher early in my career, I have a strong interest in reviewing scientific papers, as it allows me not only to expand my knowledge and keep up with innovations in the field, but also to actively contribute to the advancement of science. However, as my professional journey progresses, the increasing speed of discoveries and the growing demands resulting from my professional growth have made it more challenging to maintain a balanced management of my professional and personal life while taking care of my health. I value quality of life and strive to make it a priority, as well as a safe behavior, since excess contributes to errors. Unfortunately, the pressure to balance all these aspects has reduced the time I can dedicate to reviewing scientific papers, something I truly enjoy.

Peer review ensures research quality but faces challenges like time constraints, reviewer fatigue, and lack of recognition. Many decline review invitations due to workload, and incentives remain minimal.

Agree, when completing a peer review, I consider the analysis and its interpretation and then carefully review the discussion, following this is the written comments to the authors which need to be phrased constructively this takes time at least 16 hours per review, while I have many competing demands on my time.

Till the time, commercial publishers keep getting free labour, they are not going to pay for Editorial or Review activities. There is no reason why can they not divert a small portion of hefty APC charged by them towards the reviewers. This is not about greed on part of the reviewers, but about fair remuneration for investment of quality time by a scientific professional.

The current peer review system needs a major overhaul. There is clear evidence that large publishers like Elsevier, SpringerLink are making billions of dollars annually by using ( read exploiting the hard work of) authors and reviewers without any compensation.

I stopped reviewing for Frontiers. They charge a lot for the APC, do not offer any significant waiver to authors and researchers from LMIC and expect the reviewers to perform peer review for them for free so that they can make more money

No! Thank You. I am not interested anymore

Although I often feel the system is unfair (reviewers work without compensations/publishers generate big revenues) the idea to "pay" referees is certainly wrong. 

Being also assistant EIC of a T&F journal I also know how difficult is getting reviewers on board.
This problem gets worst when authors are from development countries.

I think, some more cash cash should also be given by publisher of Open access Journals, like Elsevier gives US$100.00 for Book proposal review.

The existing system of expert assessment and review needs a thorough revision. 
Major publishers (Elsevier and SpringerLink) should reward reviewers adequately.
Publishers demand and charge high fees for APCs, and do not give incentives to authors and researchers from low- 
and middle-income countries.

The amount of work involved in reviewing academic papers should be compensated with money. It requires a significant investment of time and expertise, which is often undervalued in academic settings. Just like you wouldn't ask a lawyer or an architect for free technical advice, researchers and experts shouldn't be expected to review manuscripts for nothing. 
I receive up to 8 request for review papers and I say no to 99% of them.

 Peer review must ensure the research quality of the submitted work. However, sometimes due to time constraints and workload it is not easy to simultaneoulsy review many papers at the same time.
