Peer review is the process by which experts in a field closely examine and evaluate the research and findings of their colleagues before it is published. This ensures that the research is rigorous, accurate, and meets the standards of the scientific community. Ecological validation refers to the extent to which a study's findings are representative of real-world conditions, social desirability is the tendency to give socially desirable responses in research, and replication is the process of repeating a study to confirm its findings. None of these options fully capture the process of peer review.
