'Peer-reviewed' only applies in AustLit to journals, although it may be attached to anthologies when they are:

• a special collection of essays within a periodical issue (example: Paul Cox Dossier).
• a collection of conference papers (example: Australia and India: Interconnections).

Journals are marked as peer reviewed when they are accorded that status by their field.

Searching specifically for works from peer-reviewed journals allows you to target your searches to works considered authoritative by the academy.
