In statistics, several tools are used to interpret the data. Measures of central tendency represent the characteristics of the data, such as mean, median, and mode. Additionally, measures of variance like standard deviation and range are used to find the spread of data from the mean. Relative standing measures the distance between data locations. Commonly used measures of relative standings are percentile, z score, and quartiles.
Percentiles are a type of fractile that partition data into...

Data are individual items of information obtained from a population or sample. Data may be classified as qualitative (categorical), quantitative continuous, or quantitative discrete. Because it is not practical to measure the entire population in a study, researchers use samples to represent the population. A random sample is a representative group from the population chosen by using a method that gives each individual in the population an equal chance of being included in the sample. Random...

Influence of Parents and Peers on Identity

556
Adolescence is a pivotal period of identity formation, during which individuals begin to answer questions central to their sense of self, such as "Who am I?" and "Who do I hope to become?" Both parents and peers play critical roles in guiding adolescents through this complex developmental phase.
Parental Influence on Identity Development
Parents serve as primary guides and managers in an adolescent's life, offering support instrumental in decision-making and personal growth....

Real Number System01:27

Real Number System

1.1K
The real number system includes all numbers used for counting, measuring, and comparing quantities. Natural numbers are the basic counting numbers: 1, 2, 3, and so on. Integers expand this set by including zero and negative whole numbers: ..., –3, –2, –1, 0, 1, 2, .... Rational numbers are those that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers m/n, where n≠0. This includes fractions like 1/2​, integers such as 46, and decimals that terminate, such as 0.17, or...

Real Number Operations

311
The concept of real numbers includes all the values that can be represented on a continuous number line. The system began with basic counting values used for enumeration. It later expanded to include values that represent the absence of quantity and opposites of the counting values. When situations required expressing parts of a whole or dividing quantities evenly, values capable of representing such proportions were developed. When written using decimal notation, these values can end or repeat...

Real Zeros of Polynomials01:27

Real Zeros of Polynomials

188
Polynomials are algebraic expressions of terms with variables raised to non-negative integer powers. A central aspect of analyzing polynomial functions is determining their real zeros—values of the variable for which the polynomial evaluates to zero. These values represent the x-intercepts of the polynomial’s graph.The Rational Zeros Theorem lists possible rational solutions for a polynomial equation with integer coefficients. If f(x)=anxn+....+a0​, then every rational zero is...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Inappropriate authorship and fake peer review (FPR) are widespread issues in scientific publishing. Addressing these requires stronger deterrents against manipulated peer review and undeserved authorship to uphold research integrity.

Area of Science:

  • Scientific publishing ethics
  • Research integrity

Background:

  • Inappropriate authorship and fraudulent publication strategies are pervasive in academia.
  • Issues include authorship disputes, kin co-authorship, gender bias, authorship trade, and fake peer review (FPR).
  • Authorship trade and FPR are concentrated in some Asian countries with rapid academic growth and ethical concerns.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss various forms of publication malpractices.
  • To highlight the link between publication pressures, declining science quality, and compromised peer review.
  • To advocate for effective deterrents against research misconduct.

Main Methods:

  • This study is a review and discussion of existing literature and observed trends in scientific publishing.
  • Analysis of common authorship disputes and fraudulent practices.
  • Examination of the role of peer review in ensuring scientific quality.

Main Results:

  • Authorship trade and fake peer review are notably prevalent in specific regions.
  • Increased publication pressure contributes to lower quality science and compromised peer review processes.
  • Existing recommendations for honest research reporting have been largely ineffective.

Conclusions:

  • Strong deterrents are necessary to combat manipulated peer review and undeserved authorship.
  • Ensuring quality and integrity in published articles requires robust mechanisms.
  • Addressing these ethical challenges is crucial for the future of scientific research.
