国外科技期刊开放式同行评议中参与者积极性研究

Motivation of participants in the foreign openly peer-reviewed academic journals

开放式同行评议作为一种新的期刊审稿方式,因其控制投稿质量、加速学术交流、为有争议的科学发现存档等优点而吸引了许多学术期刊进行尝试。考察了几家有代表性的开放式同行评议期刊后发现,这些期刊中的大部分文章在评议阶段获得的评论,无论是数量还是质量都不尽如人意。认为造成这一现象的主要原因是功利主义、文化障碍和学科差异。

As a new form of peer review,some journals launched trials of open peer reviews. Though open peer review has many advantages like deterring careless submissions, accelerating scholarly communication, archiving controversial scientific innovations or flaws and so on,we find that most of comments on the papers during the course of open peer review are unsatisfactory in terms of both quality and quantity. This paper holds that the main reasons are utilitarianism,cultural barriers and disciplinary variability.
