Hello,
I am working on a journal paper where I had to take IRB approval, and I have the approval number too. Since I am planning on submitting to a peer-reviewed journal, I need to anonymize the information, as it’s a double-blinded review. So, my questions are:
- Do I need to hide the IRB approval number and institution name?
- I have cited my papers too. What’s the format to anonymize them?
N.B: it’s for IEEE journal.
Comments
Just replace the institution and approval number with [Redacted].
Don’t worry about the citations.
