Dear Mangesh,
You have asked difference between scholarly publication, journal, and
peer review journal
Peer Review Journal The articles which have been submitted for
publication by the author are got reviewed by publisher by peers
(authorities on the subject). If the peers approve the article, it is
published in the journal. If the peer has asked for modification, these
comments are sent to the author to modify the article. The author
modifies the article and resubmits it for publication. The publisher
publishes the modified article in the journal. The journal in which all
the articles are published after getting them reviewed by the peers is
known as Peer Review Journal.
