Warum MDPI fragw\u00fcrdig ist? Scholarlykitchen<\/a> beschreibt das Delisting des wichtigsten MDPI Journals<\/p>\n

MDPI\u2019s largest journal, the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH), was delisted from the Web of Science (WoS) in March 2023. What came next was both expected and staggering. The journal shrunk by 88% in comparison to its peak. It published about 1,800 monthly papers in the three-month period from December 2022 to February 2023, and it dropped to about 200 monthly papers in summer 2023.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Die Auswirkungen des freien Falls auch im Detail bei Scholarly Kitchen<\/a> beschrieben.<\/p>\n

Die n\u00e4chste fragw\u00fcrdige Praktik ist die Stealth Correction – die nachtr\u00e4gliche heimliche Korrektur eines bereits ver\u00f6ffentlichten Artikels, die bei Zeitschriften ohne Papierausgabe und ohne Blockchain Verifizierung jederzeit m\u00f6glich ist, so der Artikel von Ren\u00e9 Aquarius<\/a>. MDPI folgt in der Blacklist hier an zweiter Stelle direkt hinter dem dubiosen Verlag BAKIS Productions LTD.<\/p>\n

Die wohl umfangreichste Analyse von MDPI steht auf dem Blog von Paolo Crosetto<\/a> “Is MDPI a predatory publisher?”<\/p>\n

So, is MDPI predatory or not? I think it has elements of both. I would name their methods aggressive rent extracting, rather than predatory. And I also think that their current methods & growth rate are likely to make them shift towards more predatory over time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Das leitet \u00fcber zu der Frage: Wie kann die ZB MED mit einem solchen Verlag eine Vereinbarung \u00fcber Millionen Steuergelder treffen? Jasmin Schmitz ist die zust\u00e4ndige ZB MED Expertin.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sie hat offensichtlich eine andere Meinung, denn sie teilt den Laborjournal Artikel \u00fcber die “Grauzone zwischen seri\u00f6s und r\u00e4uberisch” auf Social Media und findet den Verlag nicht seri\u00f6s sondern “befremdlich”.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

MDPI bezahlt keine Reviewer sondern formatiert lediglich PDFs und daf\u00fcr geben wir Steuergelder aus?<\/p>\n\n
