Macao's academic book publishing industry has a rich history and has grown significantly over the past two decades. This study employs a semi-structured in-depth interview to evaluate the current and prospective state of Macao's academic book publishing industry. The SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis and the PEST (Political, Economic, Social, and Technological) analysis are used in this study. The strengths of Macao's academic book publishing industry include that requesting an ISBN in Macao is easy and quick under the principle of ‘One Country, Two Systems’ and financial support from the Macao SAR government. However, the industry faces several weaknesses, including an underdeveloped cultural industry, a small seller market and a talent shortage, and less copyright output. Opportunities for the industry exist through constructing a Culture-based Bay Area in the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area and developing an international hub for digital trade in the Guangdong–Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone–Hengqin. However, Macao's academic book publishing industry is threatened by emerging Internet technologies, such as augmented reality, the metaverse, and ChatGPT. This paper also proposes strategies for future practice, such as taking the initiative to encourage a group of top-tier publishers to establish branches in Macao and improve publications’ cultural elements. The findings of this study provide valuable insights into the strategic management of Macao's academic book publishing industry and will be of interest to publishers, academic researchers, and policymakers.

In this, the second iteration of our continuing ‘Harbingers of Change’ project, over 160 early career researchers (ECRs) from eight countries were questioned about their scholarly communications. Three repeat in-depth interviews were conducted over 2 years of the pandemic to chart changes in attitude and behaviour. This paper provides interview findings (and an extensive literature review) regarding the role played by social media platforms. It was prompted by an initial review of the data that highlighted significant changes in the attitudes and behaviour of Malaysian ECRs, especially in respect to WhatsApp. Data were provided from several open-ended interview questions about social media, a few interviewer prompts for individual platform names, and, indirectly, from ‘mentions’ of individual platforms in answers to a range of questions about scholarly communications. Findings were: (1) 15 platforms were mentioned in respect to a range of scholarly activities, most notably visibility and reach; (2) Twitter (now X) was the most mentioned, by half the ECRs; (3) ‘churn’ is a notable observation, with large gains and losses in mentions occurring between interviews; (4) large differences between countries, with Malaysian ECRs very much leading on the adoption of social media and largely responsible for the rise of WhatsApp, French ECRs showing little interest, and China a different space where WeChat reigns supreme and foreign platforms are blocked.

Academia is undergoing transformation with rapid technological advancements, global collaboration, and the rise of AI.
Maintaining research integrity is paramount in the face of new challenges and opportunities.
The peer review process, vital for research integrity, is strained due to the high volume of academic papers.
Cactus Communication's (CACTUS) global survey during Peer Review Week 2022 gathered insights from 685 participants on research integrity and peer review.
Survey participants emphasized the importance of peer review in detecting various issues, including plagiarism and questionable research practices.
Actions taken in response to integrity concerns varied, with some participants seeking guidance from colleagues or informing journal editors.
Digital innovations, especially AI-driven tools, promise to revolutionize peer review processes, from manuscript screening to reviewer selection and evaluation.
AI tools like Chat GPT can aid authors in improving writing quality and assist reviewers in generating detailed feedback.
Concerns about data privacy and the need for a balance between human expertise and AI assistance are raised in the context of peer review.
AI plagiarism detection tool scan complement human efforts, providing an additional layer of scrutiny.
Increased digital innovation allows for flexible review formats, international collaboration, and heightened transparency in the review process.
The integration of AI into peer review holds the potential to enhance efficiency and objectivity but raises concerns about bias and transparency.
Guidelines, bias mitigation measures, accountability mechanisms, and ongoing training are essential for the responsible use of AI in peer review.
Encouraging peer review systems to embrace innovation and ethical AI is crucial for adapting to changing dynamics while upholding core principles of research integrity.

Our policy and implementation successfully identified references from predatory publishers, which authors without hesitation agreed to remove before publication.
Higher predatory reference patterns emerged among authors in low-income countries, those with non-English primary languages, and sole authorship.
After a year of implementing our policy, the editors changed our policy and workflow to better handle references from predatory publishers cited in literature reviews and meta-analyses.
Editorial responsibility is discussed, particularly concerning support for authors from lower- and middle-income countries.

Emerging as a novel cybercrime, cloned (or hijacked) journals with identical ISSNs to legitimate ones have surfaced.
These cloned journals employ various tactics, and this article identifies and discusses the top five.
Fraudulent journals primarily focus on print-only publications, using parallel websites to mislead researchers.
Cloned journals are using videos on their homepages to deceitfully showcase indexing in databases like Scopus or Web of Science.
克隆（或劫持）期刊与合法期刊的 ISSN 相同，这是一种新型网络犯罪。这些克隆期刊采用了各种策略，本文将对其中五大策略进行识别和讨论。欺诈性期刊主要关注纯印刷出版物，利用平行网站误导研究人员。克隆期刊在其主页上利用视频欺骗性地展示在 Scopus 或 Web of Science 等数据库中的索引情况。
