Resultados implausĂ­veis

Não é novidade um pesquisador submeter um artigo sem sentido a uma revista com práticas predatórias para provar, de forma risível, que ela não faz uma avaliação criteriosa dos manuscritos que recebe. Esse artifício foi usado novamente, agora por Pascual Diago, professor do Departamento de Ensino de Matemática da Universidade de Valência, na Espanha. Intitulado “Paradoxos obstétricos e equações didáticas: O impacto do ensino da matemática no parto e além”, o falso estudo relacionava desejos de grávidas a números primos e foi escrito por um programa de inteligência artificial. “Incluí gráficos que não explicavam nada e resultados totalmente implausíveis”, afirmou…

I think these predatory journals are really onto something with this idea that they should tell us how much of their «Original Article(s)» are allowed to be plagiarized.

#PredatoryJournal is a complex issue. I consider that we should focus on two things: 1. Support researchers before they submit a Paper, 2. Reform #ResearchAssessment

I'm against generalizations in this subject.

Kommen wir zu #Reviewer2 .

Jetzt merke ich, warum der Editor gewarnt hat.

Reviewer2 bewertet mit "minor Revisions" also durchaus okaye Arbeit.

Satz 1 seines Reviews:
"Es ist erforderlich, dass die Autor*innen folgende zwei relevante Arbeiten zitieren:
doi.org/10.3390/xxxx
doi.org/10.3390/yyyy ."

Habe nachgeschaut. Ich kenne jetzt Reviewer2.
Und es sind (mMn) auch keine richtige Veröffentlichungen, sondern es gehört zu einem #Raubjournal (#predatoryJournal).

Ansonsten hält sich der Reviewer zurück und weist nur auf zwei drei kleinere Punkte hin.

Was tun, wenn ihr euer Manuskript versehentlich bei einem Predatory Journal eingereicht habt?
Welche Strategien ihr anwenden könnt und wie ihr am besten damit umgeht, erklären wir euch im neuen QuIX.

Yet another shoddy #Elsevier journal sending me chemistry or chemical engineering papers to review.

(Narrator: he was not a chemical engineer, chemist, or anything chemist adjacent. In fact, his only chemistry related skill was once putting out a fire in high school chemistry )

To add insult to injury, it includes some attempt at an NDA, and sign over of
rights

"You must not share your review or information about the review process with anyone without the agreement of the editors and authors involved, irrespective of the publication outcome. If the manuscript is rejected by this journal and the
author agrees that the submission be transferred to another Elsevier journal
via the Article Transfer Service, we may securely transfer your reviewer
comments and name/contact details to the receiving journal editor for their
peer review purposes."

OK Rongjun Chen and the Chemical Engineering Journal, I'm sharing your shoddy referee selection process. Come at me bro.

This is weird, two papers with the same name. The new one appears to be a plagiarized version of the old one, but the text is different. (Perhaps edited with a LLM?)

What do you think is the point here - is the idea to siphon off citations intended for the other paper? Are the authors real, or is the whole thing just made up as fake data for a predatory journal?

Why change the text, but not the title?

Hey,

A proff. from an Colombian institution published a paper in a #PredatoryJournal. When he realized of that, he tried to retire the article from the journal and now the publisher is charging him to retire the document.

What can the proff. do in this case?

I've known of similar situations before, but I've never heard of a solution

My Junk E-Mail folder today (I had to look into it because of an unrelated issue). All requests to write or review articles, or to serve as editorial member for poop journals đź’©.

And those are only the ones that got caught in the spam filter đźš®. There are plenty more of those that make it into my inbox on an almost hourly basis.
