In the #RESQUE evaluation scheme („Research Quality Evaluation scheme for psychological research“), there is an indicator for publications: “Correctness of computational results has been independently verified“.

With CODECHECK, you can request and upload a verification certificate. This gives you "extra points“ in our evaluation scheme, as this is a real quality criterion.

Today is the 24th birthday of the Budapest Open Access Initiative.
https://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/read/

Best known for catalyzing the #OpenAccess movement in 2002, the BOAI has been continuously active and formed a nonprofit organization just last year.

See the org's progress report on its first year.
https://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/news/boai-celebrates-anniversary-and-reflects-on-progress-of-first-year-as-an-organization/

The latest version of the BOAI recommendations is its 20th anniversary statement.
https://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/boai20/

In contrast to the earlier BOAI statements, which made many recommendations, the 20th anniversary statement deliberately focuses on a small number of top priorities:

1. Adopting #OpenInfrastructure
2. Reforming #ResearchAssessment
3. Moving away from #APCs
4. Moving away from #ReadAndPublish agreements.

I'm proud of my contributions to #BOAI (2002), #BOAI10 (2012), and #BOAI20 (2022), and honored to serve on the org steering committee.

Happy #ValentinesDay to all who work for #OpenAccess worldwide.

#Metadata mutability may sound harmless, but it can distort research metrics and misattribute credit.
To ensure fair and responsible #ResearchAssessment in #OpenScience, freezing & versioning metadata is critical.
Here, #OpenAIREGraph CTO @paolomanghi breaks down both the risks and possible solutions.

#ABACUS will be built on the #OpenAIREGraph, learn more about this exciting initiative that will reshape #ResearchAssessment in Greece!

Greece is taking an important step toward transparent and evidence-based research monitoring. 🇬🇷

ABACUS, a new national service developed by HEAL-Link in collaboration with OpenAIRE, will offer a coherent, open view of Greek scholarly research, aligned with European Open Science standards and EOSC.

Without mentioning any consideration of the damages the current #genAI tools are having on our societies and democracies? Sigh.

Also, this does not address the underlying issues of the way that the current #ResearchAssessment and funding is driven by neoliberal values. Something of which these blogposts also reek off..
