Statistica Neerlandica

Statistica Neerlandica is a fast-turnaround, international statistics journal that publishes research across all areas of statistics, from theory, and methodology to applications. Besides original articles, we welcome short notes, state-of-the-arts and tutorials. Established in 1946 by the Netherlands Society for Statistics and Operations Research, we are one of the oldest statistics journals in the world.

For submissions made after 1 May 2023, Statistica Neerlandica will become a fast turnaround journal. We will aim to complete the reviewing process within 3 weeks’ time, and publication within 2 months’ time after first submission. This will have several consequences. We will remove the “major revision” category. Any article that requires a major revision will be rejected. We therefore encourage authors to submit “ready-to-publish” manuscripts. In particular, we welcome:

• Complete analyses (including a leading narrative and, e.g., goodness-of-fit considerations) of interesting, applied problems in any field.
• Mature developments of novel methodological statistical tools.
• Interesting theoretical developments in mathematical statistics.

But also

• Short manuscripts with a single, interesting idea.
• Up-to-date review articles of an important, developing area in statistics. 
• Special issues focusing on interesting developments in applied, methodological or mathematical statistics.
