Scholarly Open Access
Critical Analysis of Jeffrey Beall's Blog - Open Access Publishing
|
His
website Scholarly Open Access maintains a list of journals that may be
“predatory publishers”
Critics
of Beall’s blacklisting of Frontiers maintain that the open-access
publisher is reputable and does offer proper peer review.
Daniël
Lakens, an experimental psychologist at the Eindhoven University of
Technology in the Netherlands and an associate editor at Frontiers in
Psychology: Cognition, tweeted: “Frontiers being added to Beall’s list
reveals the big weakness of Beall’s list: It’s not based on solid
data, but on Beall’s intuition.”
