Open letter from a group of sleuths re problems with editors/papers at Scientific Reports deevybee.blogspot.com/2024/10/an-ope… They've published 23K papers in 2024 with APC of £2090, raising £48 million from this journal alone, so should be able to put resource into cleaning this up.


‼️75 retractaciones‼️ Un caso sin precedentes. Esto no debería sostenerse ni un día más. Si estos días el claustro no presenta una propuesta para censurar a su rector, el desprestigio será aún mayor. Enhorabuena a Manuel Ansede por su trabajo. elpais.com/ciencia/2024-1…









Please, Scientific Reports do not claim that this paper was ever per reviewed. I think it is cryptic message (presented as XRD patterns) or simple trolling of research world. 😂 Top 100 joke by Scientific Reports for 2024. pubpeer.com/publications/6…



In 2013, I wrote a book about educational myths. I *didn't* include learning styles. Why? Because even in 2013, so much research had already been published showing they were bunk. Didn't feel worth me going over it all again. It's now 2024. What's in The Economist ?

The author of a recent editorial complaining about retractions, who has many retractions for manipulated peer review, also asks for citations of their own papers when peer reviewing. pubpeer.com/publications/D… Stuart Ritchie 🇺🇦 Dorothy Bishop

In Elsevier: “As strongly requested by the reviewers, here we cite some references [[35], [36], [37], [38], [39], [40], [41], [42], [43], [44], [45], [46], [47]] although … completely irrelevant to the present work” pubpeer.com/publications/1… CC MA Oviedo-Garcia Gilles Hubert
