Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Science
  • Scholarly Publishing
  • Research Integrity

Background:

  • The International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) regularly updates its recommendations for medical journals.
  • Recent updates aim to fortify publishing integrity and transparency in the peer review process.
  • A new recommendation advises authors to avoid citing predatory or pseudo-journals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the implications of the ICMJE's updated recommendations, particularly the new clause on predatory publishing.
  • To examine the controversy surrounding the definition and identification of predatory journals.
  • To assess the potential impact of these recommendations on scholarly communication and research integrity.

Main Methods:

  • Review of the ICMJE's December 2019 updated recommendations.
  • Analysis of the newly introduced clause regarding predatory publishing.
  • Discussion of the ambiguities and challenges in defining and blacklisting predatory journals.
  • Consideration of the simultaneous publication of recommendations across multiple medical journals.

Main Results:

  • The updated ICMJE recommendations introduce a requirement for peer reviewers to declare assistance, enhancing transparency.
  • A new, controversial clause advises authors to avoid citing predatory or pseudo-journals.
  • The definition of "predatory" publishing venues remains unclear, making the clause difficult to implement reliably.
  • Existing blacklists for predatory journals have debatable parameters and reliability issues.

Conclusions:

  • While the ICMJE's updated recommendations aim to improve publishing integrity through transparency, the clause on predatory journals presents significant challenges.
  • The lack of clear definitions and reliable methods for identifying predatory journals raises concerns about the practical application and potential biases of this recommendation.
  • Further clarification and consensus are needed regarding the definition and identification of predatory publishing to ensure equitable and effective implementation.
