Hello Taylor,

For any paper in question, I would search for the paper to discover where it was published. If it was published in a journal, I would visit the journal's page to find out if it publishes peer-reviewed manuscripts. The article you mention was published in Early Childhood Education Journal by Springer. It uses the peer-review process to evaluate manuscripts for publication. Visit for details:

Hope this helps,

Tom
