Вчера вечером произошло исключение из базы Scopus, и мы сразу сообщаем вам, чтобы вы могли сохранить свои средства и время и не попасть в один из этих журналов. Также хотим отметить, что два журнала, о которых мы писали в нашей рубрике «Журналы, которые скоро потеряют индексацию в Scopus», были исключены из базы Scopus.
International Journal of Intelligent Systems and Applications in Engineering — We wrote about this - Here.
International Journal of Chemical and Biochemical Sciences — а об этом — Here.
Follow our section “Excluded journals from Scopus” to save your time, money and nerves.
In July 2024 Several journals with significant impact on the academic community have been excluded from the Scopus scientific database.
The list of excluded publications includes:
- European Journal of Medical Research — excluded due to anomalies detected by the Radar system.
International Journal of Applied Economics, Finance and Accounting — also lost status due to anomalies in the Radar system.
International Journal of Intelligent Systems and Applications in Engineering — Problems with publication and content quality led to the exclusion (We warned you about this journal last month - Here).
International Journal of Chemical and Biochemical Sciences — The reason for exclusion is anomalies detected through the Radar system (We warned you about this log back in May - Here).
Journal of Engineering and Applied Science - Talso lost status due to anomalies in the Radar system.
Journal of Wildlife and Biodiversity — excluded due to anomalies detected by the Radar system.
Pharmacy Education — Problems with publishing and content quality led to exclusion.
Revista de Psiquiatria Clinica — also lost status due to anomalies in the Radar system.
Revista Iberoamericana de Psicologia del Ejercicio y el Deporte — excluded due to anomalies detected by the Radar system.
Радарная система:
The Scopus Radar system helps identify journals exhibiting anomalous publication activity. Key features of the Radar system include:
- Analysis of publication volumes: A sharp increase in the number of articles may indicate that the journal is accepting more manuscripts than it can adequately review.
- Review time: Too short a period from submission to publication of articles may indicate an insufficiently thorough peer review process.
- Concentration of authors: If most articles are published by the same authors or from the same institution, this may indicate unethical practices or manipulation of citation metrics.
The exclusion of journals from Scopus has several consequences for the scientific community:
- Loss of trustAuthors who have published their work in these journals may face problems in the assessment of their scientific work.
- View works: Scientists who have published in these journals may need to look for new platforms to publish their research.
- Loss of rating: Universities and research institutions may lose rankings because their research in journals excluded from Scopus will no longer be taken into account.
Выводы:
Journal delisting from Scopus is an important tool for supporting the quality of scientific literature. It serves as a warning signal to publishers and editors about the need to maintain high quality and ethical standards. The Radar system helps identify journals with anomalous activity and alerts them to potential violations. For scientists, it serves as a reminder of the importance of carefully selecting journals for publication and ensuring their compliance with international standards.
We understand that the offer of rapid publication is always attractive to our colleagues, but, dear scientists, we strongly recommend caution when choosing a publication outlet or intermediary offering rapid publication in an indexed journal. The Academy of Articles carefully selects the publications it partners with to avoid putting its clients at risk. We strive to promote this issue so that more Ukrainian scientists will carefully consider the publication venues and intermediary companies they use. Don't be tempted by quick publication deadlines for little money, as this will always lead to problems. Follow our column to stay up-to-date with all the news and avoid putting yourself at risk.
Academy of Articles guarantees the publication of your article in an indexed journal. We regularly review journals that we believe are at risk of losing their indexation. Our team thoroughly reviews each journal before publication to ensure it meets high standards of quality and scholarly integrity.
