Current,Researchers face “not publishing,The pressure of single evaluation will disappear。In the scientific research evaluation systems of countries around the world,Indicators such as the number of publications and influence of papers are very important,Related to the Bet365 app download achievements and status of scientific researchers,It is also closely related to personal professional title evaluation and promotion。July 19,The research results of Harry van Dalen, a professor at the School of Economics and Management at Tilburg University in the Netherlands, were released on the official website of the London School of Economics and Political Science,The current Bet365 app download world “does not publish”,The "just disappear" way of outputting Bet365 app download results is inconsistent with the inherent driving goal of scientific innovation。Darren advocates a form of Bet365 app download management that is more focused on input and promoting scientific innovation,Cultivation of scholars with "ideological taste",Get rid of the bad orientation of “paper only”。

  Compliance with Bet365 app download indicators becomes the dominant strategy

    ,In some Western countries,Academia has always been considered an industry with extremely uneven attention and rewards。Some scholars believe,Let non-market incentives dominate the scientific research and Bet365 app download community,Helps researchers solve major scientific problems,And gained recognition from peers。Therefore,Non-market motivating factors should become the motivating factors that attract the most attention from scholars,Let motivation factors such as money or employment take a backseat,Exists only as a side benefit。However,Competition in various industries has intensified in recent years,Academia is no exception。Many non-market incentives have gradually been replaced by market-based incentives,Various types of impact research funding、Income and employment evaluation indicators dominate,Compliance with evaluation indicators has become the dominant strategy for scholars。

From the current point of view,An evaluation system in which scholars must prove their worth through Bet365 app download achievements,By the government、Widely accepted by universities and individual scholars。Darren’s survey shows,Publishing Bet365 app download work is a major source of stress for academics,Strive for scientific research funding、Teaching、Administrative affairs and other matters are ranked second。Some hope to be promoted to teaching assistant、Associate professors are under great pressure。In the professor group,Nearly 60% of people said,There is a lot of pressure to publish papers。

  The current Bet365 app download system brings pressure

Darren conducted a survey among some Dutch economists,Attempting to research "not published,How “just disappear” works in practice。About 2/3 of the respondents think,This kind of pressure has certain benefits,But it can also have serious disadvantages,Such as Bet365 app download misconduct or ignoring practical issues。Only 1/3 of the respondents think that,This kind of pressure has only advantages and no disadvantages。Overall,Many scholars are concerned about "not publishing,Sceptical about the idea of ​​disappearing。

Moderate stress is beneficial,But if publishing in top journals becomes the only goal,It will be harmful to scholars。This kind of competition based on a single evaluation system,Will promote scholars to be keen on publishing articles,Not scientific research or innovation。During Darren’s investigation,63% of scholars believe that,Universities do not care about the content of their published work,Only care about which journals it is published in and the number of publications。About the publication level of published articles、Quantity and content evaluation standards may cause scholars to withdraw from Bet365 app download competition。33% of scholars in the survey indeed said,Because of the pressure to publish results,They have considered leaving academia。

More and more scholars are focusing on how to publish articles,But not working on the content of the paper,This often leads to Bet365 app download misconduct and even manuscripts being withdrawn by journals。Research shows,Compared to papers in less competitive fields,Bet365 app download papers in some highly competitive fields are more likely to be fake。Said Virginia Barbour, Australia Open Access Strategy Team Leader,Academics face tremendous pressure to publish papers in international Bet365 app download journals,And the number of top journals is very limited,As a result, many important research results cannot be published、Hinders interdisciplinary research、Lack of recognition of non-thesis research results and other issues。What’s worse,Some scholars want to publish papers in top journals,Possible compromises on research integrity and standards。

In addition,"Not published,The concept of "just disappear" will also affect scholars' writing experience。Marion Heron, senior lecturer in higher education at the University of Surrey, UK,If the ultimate goal of Bet365 app download writing is publication,This idea then obscures much of the value of the Bet365 app download writing process,It will also reduce opportunities for scholars’ individual development and collaborative innovation。Heron et al. interviewed 7 scholars in the field of higher education at different career stages,And ask them to reflect on the problems they face in Bet365 app download writing。Research findings,Any Bet365 app download writing process aimed at publishing will damage the creativity of scholars,At the same time, standardized writing content will also have a negative impact on the experience of Bet365 app download writing。

 Cultivating Bet365 app download with “ideological taste”

From the current point of view,The Bet365 app download community is generally dissatisfied with the existing evaluation indicators,But unable to change the status quo。Darren explained,First,Evaluation metrics have become part of the university’s business model,Cannot be removed。Secondly,If you want to improve the existing evaluation standards,Just cover social relevance、Open science and other new dimensions,These more granular indicators will bring more management difficulties。

How can modern universities achieve the best management results without resorting to evaluation indicators?Darren said,so far,The most important thing for universities is how to select and educate people who can publish results,Rather than how to cultivate Bet365 app download with "ideological taste"。Therefore,Currently changing indicators for current and future Bet365 app download、Becoming a scientist without characteristics driven by interest groups and other factors,Only obsessed with completing indicators。Darren suggested,Change the way of governance,Looking for alternatives to existing evaluation metrics,Filtering、Cultivation of Bet365 app download with "ideological taste",And socialize it。If universities want to strive for scientific innovation,We need to regain our autonomy,This step starts with choosing managers who truly understand science,At the same time, we must learn from "not publishing,Lessons learned from "just disappear"。

Barber thinks,Incentive and support mechanisms in academia should be designed to promote good Bet365 app download practice,Instead of promoting behaviors such as cutting corners。Currently,Peer review is the main tool used by scholars to evaluate papers before publication,But it cannot solve all problems of fraud or sloppiness in academia。Today,The Bet365 app download community is working hard to find ways to promote good Bet365 app download practice,More and more groups of scientists are coming together,Jointly develop scientific research specifications and reproducibility standards。In addition,The application of many technological innovation methods will also improve the reliability of scientific research,Open access is one of the important means。
