Peer Review

If there is "journal" in the title it is likely PR, if there is "magazine" in the title it is not. If there is "proceedings" in the title it is from a conference and may or may not be PR, but even if it is, it is considered to be worse than an archival (i.e. available through the library) publication.
If the page numbers continuously throughout a volume (usually a year), then it is likely PR.
If the magazine is intended for non-academics and non-researchers then it is probably not PR. Converse is also true.
If it has advertisements (other than a few really targeted ones at the beginning or the end of each issue), then it is probably not PR.
If most of the articles are written by people with PhDs, then it is probably PR.
If there are instructions for authors, then it is probably PR. It will likely say so.
If articles are written by publication staff, then it is not PR.

When all else fails, than look it up on the internet and it will most likely say.
