Abstract
The threat to online scientific communication from predatory publishers and journals is now 10 years old. Its recognition and emergence in the literature date back to 2012. The paper summarizes past and present knowledge about the threat to online scholarly communication: the activities of predatory journals and publishers. In this study, the first-round mapping of publications on this topic was carried out using the Scopus and Web of Science databases. This study is the first step of a literature review in search of possible solutions to this issue.
掠夺性出版商和期刊对在线科学传播的威胁现在已经有10年了。它在文献中的认识和出现可以追溯到2012年。本文总结了过去和现在关于在线学术交流威胁的知识:掠夺性期刊和出版商的活动。在本研究中,使用Scopus和Web of Science数据库对该主题的出版物进行了第一轮映射。本研究是文献综述的第一步,旨在寻找解决这一问题的可能方法。
