摘要

本研究提出并解释了索引劫持现象,即被劫持的期刊系统地渗透到国际索引数据库中,Scopus是这些数据库中被渗透最严重的数据库之一。通过对已知被劫持期刊列表的分析,该研究发现,自2013年以来,至少有67种被劫持的期刊侵入了Scopus。其中,33家期刊在Scopus中索引了未经授权的内容,23家期刊的主页链接遭到破坏,而11家期刊两者都做了。截至2023年9月,仍有41家被劫持的期刊在破坏Scopus中合法期刊的数据。Scopus中被劫持期刊的存在是对科学诚信的挑战,因为未经同行评议的不可靠论文被合法化,并损害了Scopus数据库的质量。被劫持的期刊在Scopus上的存在有着深远的影响。在这些期刊上发表的论文可能会被引用,Scopus中这些期刊的未经授权的内容因此被导入其他数据库,包括ORCID和WHO COVID-19研究数据库。这对这些国家的研究评价构成了一个特别的挑战,在这些国家,可能会使用批准的期刊的克隆版本来获得出版物,并且很难核实它们的真实性。

Challenges posed by hijacked journals in Scopus

Challenges posed by hijacked journals in Scopus

This study presents and explains the phenomenon of indexjacking, which involves the systematic infiltration of hijacked journals into international indexing databases, with Scopus being one of the most infiltrated among these databases. Through an analysis of known lists of hijacked journals, the study identified at least 67 hijacked journals that have penetrated Scopus since 2013. Of these, 33 journals indexed unauthorized content in Scopus and 23 compromised the homepage link in the journal's profile, while 11 did both. As of September 2023, 41 hijacked journals are still compromising the data of legitimate journals in Scopus. The presence of hijacked journals in Scopus is a challenge for scientific integrity due to the legitimization of unreliable papers that have not undergone peer review and compromises the quality of the Scopus database. The presence of hijacked journals in Scopus has far-reaching effects. Papers published in these journals may be cited, and unauthorized content from these journals in Scopus is thus imported into other databases, including ORCID and the WHO COVID-19 Research Database. This poses a particular challenge for research evaluation in those countries, where cloned versions of approved journals may be used to acquire publications and verifying their authenticity can be difficult.

期刊介绍: The Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology (JASIST) is a leading international forum for peer-reviewed research in information science. For more than half a century, JASIST has provided intellectual leadership by publishing original research that focuses on the production, discovery, recording, storage, representation, retrieval, presentation, manipulation, dissemination, use, and evaluation of information and on the tools and techniques associated with these processes. The Journal welcomes rigorous work of an empirical, experimental, ethnographic, conceptual, historical, socio-technical, policy-analytic, or critical-theoretical nature. JASIST also commissions in-depth review articles (“Advances in Information Science”) and reviews of print and other media.
