"<br /><br />The real problem might be that the no. of publications and citations are used as some sort of metric for quality, used for hiring and promoting researchers, etc. I fear nothing will be solved when this continues to be the case. There is nothing wrong with self-citations in and of itself i reason. And when you all start acting like it is wrong, then people who want to manipulate that will simply ask their friends if they would cite them (as has probably already been happening a lot over the past decades, but let's all not think of that)<br /><br />I fear nothing will be solved changing one Sternberg for another (version of an editor). This Sternberg dude may have been clumsly in his antics, but you don't really think he's the only editor who does bad stuff. <br /><br />Journals, editors, and peer-review are a joke and can possibly be viewed as being anti-scientific in and of itself, and the cause for many, if not the majority, of all the problematic issues in science today. <br /><br />But please, you all keep actively participating in this sh#tshow, and be proud of the fact that you all wrote a letter and got really angry about this Sternberg dude. Congrats, well done!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
