Professional Relationship Between Physicians and Journalists in Bangladesh: Web-Based Cross-Sectional Study.

A health care system is intertwined with multiple stakeholders, including government institutions, pharmaceutical companies, patients, hospitals and clinics, health care professionals, health researchers and scientific medical experts, patients and consumer organizations, and media organizations. Physicians and journalists are the key actors who play a significant role in making health care services and health information accessible to the people of a country. The aim of this study was to explore the tensions and alliances between physicians and journalists in Bangladesh, along with identifying strategies that could potentially improve the often contentious relationship and quality of medical journalism. We conducted a web-based cross-sectional survey using the snowball sampling technique from September 2021 to March 2022. Adult Bangladeshi citizens belonging to the two selected professional groups (physicians and journalists), who understood the survey content, and agreed to participate in the survey were considered eligible for inclusion in the study. Both descriptive and logistic regression analyses, including the Mann-Whitney U test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test, were performed to determine the differences between groups concerning selected perception-related variables, and the associations of perceptions about lack of trust in each other's knowledge, skills, and professional integrity with background characteristics. A total of 419 participants completed the survey, including 219 physicians and 200 journalists. Among physicians, 53.4% (117/219) reported lower trust toward journalists' professional domain and expertise, whereas 43.5% (87/200) of journalists had lower trust toward physicians' professional domain and expertise. In terms of perception about not having respect for each other, the median value for the physicians was 5 (strongly agree), whereas it was only 3 (agree) for the journalists. We also found that male physicians (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 0.45, compared with female physicians) and medical officers (AOR 0.30, compared with specialists) had significantly higher odds of lacking trust in journalists' knowledge, skills, and professional integrity. When rating the statement "Regular professional interaction between journalists and doctors may improve the relationship between the professional groups," most physicians (186/219, 84.9%) chose "neither agree nor disagree," whereas most journalists (106/200, 53.0%) stated that they "slightly agree." Both physicians and journalists in Bangladesh have negative perceptions of each other's professions. However, physicians have a more negative perception of journalists than journalists have of the physicians. Strategies such as a legal framework to identify medical-legal issues in reporting, constructive discussion, professional interaction, and capacity-building training programs may significantly improve the relationship between physicians and journalists.

Societal Impacts of Higher Education Research: From ‘Publish or Perish’ to ‘Publish and Prosper’ in Business School Scholarship

This paper introduces a transformative systems-level framework for understanding the interplay of institutional, cultural, and systemic dynamics influencing the societal impacts of academic research. We introduce and apply the Societal Impacts of Research Institutional Ecosystem (SIRIE) framework to business school scholarship and academic research in higher education. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) serve as SIRIE’s normative ethical framework to benchmark: institutional mission; accreditation bodies’ compliance requirements; faculty tenure and promotion research expectations; the influence of rankings and ratings; and journal quality metrics. Our framework acknowledges the role the Anthropocene Epoch plays in contributing to contemporary social and environmental problems. We argue that recalcitrant institutional forces in academia neutralize the promise of academic scholarship to galvanize meaningful societal impacts. We assert that the contemporary state of higher education research is unfortunately dominated by a “publish or perish” mentality. This narrative produces academic research that is decontextualized from today’s exigent “grand challenges” related to poverty, climate, equity, health, peace, environment, etc., as well as transformative solutions for a sustainable future. By exploring an alternative paradigm for academic research through SIRIE and the SDGs—“publish and prosper”—we detail how academic research can meaningfully contribute to change the world for the better.

Decoding Predatory Publishing practices for Academia

Predatory or deceptive publishing is still a persistent issue in scholarly communication. A large number of predatory journals are being published, and it is essential to keep them in check as the potential harm they could do to the scientific discourse is enormous. With the Open Science Framework (OSF) project titled "Decoding Predatory Publishing Practices for Academia (DePA)," the authors try to equip users to identify potential predatory journals and endorse ethical and quality publishing. The project will consist of training materials and a rubric developed to examine the quality of an open-access scientific journal by combining the publisher and individual journal aspects. The project includes a rubric consisting of different aspects regarding publication in scientific journals, quantifying the quality of the publishing practices adopted by these journals. Predatory or deceptive publishing is still a persistent issue in scholarly communication. For instance, deceptive publishers could hold the unpublished manuscript indefinitely, and little can be done if the author has signed a copyright transfer agreement. We can reduce the impact of predatory publishers by aiding the scholar community with simple and easy-to-understand devices that help them analyse the journals and publishers themselves. This could be part of the orientation at a researcher’s, library’s, or mentor’s level.

Editor Management of Special Report and Implementation of the Kumparanplus Subscription Model in Maintaining the Quality of Journalism through in-Depth and Investigative Information

Online media provides a place to advertise on several parts of the online media page. Paid online media or subscriptions business model aims to present content free of ads and clickbait so that readers can enjoy content in the best way possible without being disturbed by advertisements and content of higher quality, from content to packaging or the appearance of the content itself. Another challenge facing the media industry is the presence of digital platforms. As well as changing how media do business, digital platforms are also a means of spreading news. The media industry must adapt to technological developments and determine the direction of free to digital only subscriptions. The quality of journalism is the foremost and most important thing for the mass media. The acceleration of news on social media has also resulted in online media forgetting news content and only focusing on what their readers want to get as many clicks as possible without considering the quality of the news. In Indonesia, one of online media Kumparanplus, especially the Special Report, the news is packaged in-depth. The appropriate investigation aims to determine how the mass media carry out investigative practices. Packaging becomes more exclusive by looking at selection strategies, colorful designs, descriptive, prominence, and linking facts into the news to make it more meaningful, engaging and memorable to lead audiences according to their perspective.

Don't forget about customer magazines: the effects of reading experiences on customer magazine effectiveness

IntroductionContent marketing continues to gain importance in organizations' marketing mix. However, its effectiveness has received little academic attention. This is particularly true of customer magazines, which, despite increasing digitization, remain a key pillar of content marketing and account for considerable investments. Therefore, this paper examines how reading experiences affect the effectiveness of customer magazines, mediated by media engagement.MethodsBased on the uses-and-gratifications-theory and literature on sensory perception, journalistic quality, and media engagement, several hypotheses are proposed. To investigate the hypotheses, the study uses a cross-sectional survey. The dataset for the analyses consists of 1,396 consumers and is analyzed by structural equation modeling.ResultsThe results indicate that hedonically gratifying, as well as identity-enforcing content experiences and visually and haptically gratifying process experiences are associated with higher effectiveness. Media engagement mediates these effects. Experienced journalistic quality directly and positively influences customer magazine effectiveness.DiscussionThis study's findings are important to marketing communications research. In particular, the study contributes to the still limited literature on content marketing effectiveness and helps practitioners optimize customer magazines.

The association between premature rupture of membranes (PROM) and preterm gestational age with neonatal sepsis: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Background Sepsis is one of the main causes of neonatal mortality. The morbidity and mortality rates due to neonatal sepsis are as high as 9-20%. Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) and preterm gestational age are among the risk factors of neonatal sepsis.
 Objective To evaluate for potential associations between PROM as well as preterm gestational age to neonatal sepsis by meta-analysis and systematic review.
 Methods A meta-analysis and systematic review were performed using literature sourced from PubMed, Cochrane, and Google Scholar according to PRISMA guidelines. We calculated the incidence of sepsis in neonates with and without PROM and premature gestational age. Journal quality was assessed according to the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) criteria.
 Results From the literature search for PROM, 21 case-control studies met the inclusion criteria. Neonatal sepsis was more common in neonates who had a maternal history of PROM than in those without [OR 2.69 (95%CI 1.56 to 4.65); P<0.00001]. From the literature search for gestational age, we found 17 case-control studies that met the inclusion criteria. Neonatal sepsis was more common in preterm than term neonates [OR 2.55 (95%CI 1.61 to 4.04); P<0.00001].
 Conclusion Neonates with a maternal history of PROM and/or preterm gestational age are at high risk of developing neonatal sepsis.

Scopus based bibliometric and scientometric analysis of occupational therapy publications from 2001 to 2020

Background: Occupational therapy (OT) is one of the allied health professions, with its first journals in 1920. The main objective of this study was to find out the publication trend in the field of OT research for the period of 2001-2020 using the principles of bibliometrics and scientometrics. Methods: The data was retrieved from Scopus from the past 20 years (2001-2020). VOSviewer software was used to find year-wise publications in OT-specific and non-OT-specific Journals along with top journals, countries, organisations, authors, cited articles, and highly used keywords. Results: There was a steady growth of OT articles over the past 20 years. Scopus indexes 16 OT-specific journals are identified. American Journal of Occupational Therapy, British Journal of Occupational Therapy Journal, Australian Occupational Therapy Journal, Scandinavian Journal of Occupational Therapy, and Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy are the leading publications and citations. A comparison of OT-specific and non-OT journals inferred that the OT-specific papers are three times more published in non-OT journals. There is a trend in publishing multidisciplinary medical journals than OT journals. The US publishes the most articles, followed by the UK, Australia, Canada, and Germany. Though the US alone produced a considerable number of articles (9517), only five organisations are listed in the top 20, compared to Canada (n=6) and Australia (n=5). Australia represents the highest number of published authors (n=11/20). Canada represents a highly cited author from the top-cited publications. The five common keywords used by OT-authors are "occupational therapy", “rehabilitation”, “stroke”, “physical therapy,” and “activities of daily living”. This study lists top-20 journals along with their CiteScore and Journal Impact Factor. Conclusions: This study will help the budding researchers in OT to select a suitable quality journal for publication and, further, helpful for research promotion, researcher incentivising, grant allocations, and policymakers in the OT field.

Efficiency Ranking of Journals in Turkey with DEA and DR/DEA Methods

Today, all countries publish many scientific studies in order to make progress in a scientific sense and plan for the future. Many criteria, such as impact factor, citation count, and article impact score, have been developed to measure, compare, and rank the quality of journals in which these studies are published. These criteria are used for purposes such as academic promotion, hiring, publication support, project support, and scholarships. It is extremely important to evaluate the quality standards of journals published in any field objectively in order to determine their quality and improve their standards. In this study, effective analysis was performed on certain journals published in Turkey using suitable input and output variables selected from these criteria. The efficiency scores of the journals were calculated using the Data Envelopment Analysis method and Discriminant Ratio Data Envelopment Analysis was applied. The journals were ranked according to the efficiency scores obtained. The efficiency scores obtained using Discriminant Ratio Data Envelopment Analysis were found to give better results in evaluating the performance of journals. In addition, the obtained efficiency scores were compared with the journal rankings given by Journal Citation Reports. As a result of this study, the importance of evaluating the performance of journals using objective criteria has once again been emphasized.

Analysis of academic publishing in Trakya University journals

Background: Although Turkey publishes more than 3000 peer-reviewed scientific journals, fewer than 5% of them are covered by major indexing databases, and only 1 of the 10 scientific journals published by Trakya University (Turkey) is among those quality journals. In November 2017, Trakya University organized a workshop titled ‘Increasing the quality of academic journals at Trakya University’, the ultimate goal of which was to bring together all stakeholders in the process of academic publishing, to review the criteria of publishing quality, and to recommend measures to enhance the quality of academic journals published from Turkey.  Objectives: To review the current status of academic journals published by Trakya University in terms of international publishing standards, to devise measures to enhance their quality, and also to help other journals do the same.  Methods: Information was collected from the websites of 10 academic journals pub-lished by Trakya University in the fields of natural, medical, and social sciences to assess the extent to which each journal met a set of criteria defining quality academic publishing. These journals were then compared in terms of their success in meeting those criteria. Results: No single measure can improve the quality of all the ten journals published by Trakya University. Balkan Medical Journal topped the list in that it satisfied nearly all the criteria whereas the journals that met the fewest criteria were Trakya University Journal of Economics and Administrative Sciences Faculty, Trakya University Journal of Faculty of Letters, and Journal of Balkan Libraries Union. Timeliness in ensuring ethical standards was the criterion most often met by the journals, but all 10 failed to meet the criteria related to data accessibility and good reporting guidelines. Of the 8 crite-ria related to fairness of the blind-review processes, all 10 met 6 but none met all 8. In terms of transparency and implementation of best practices, the highest compliance was in terms of the criteria related to the name of the journal, its governing body, and archiving, but no journal made any effort to market itself, that is, to expand its circulation. Conclusions: The strengths and weaknesses of each journal with reference to the quality of academic publishing were highlighted. The method described in the paper can also be used for evaluating other journals.

A Review and Assessment of Open Access Surgery Journals

IntroductionOpen access publishing has exhibited rapid growth in recent years. However, there is uncertainty surrounding the quality of open access journals and their ability to reach target audiences. This study reviews and characterizes open access surgical journals. Materials and methodsThe directory of open access journals was used to search for open access surgical journals. PubMed indexing status, impact factor, article processing charge (APC), initial year of open access publishing, average weeks from manuscript submission to publication, publisher, and peer-review processes were evaluated. ResultsNinety-two open access surgical journals were identified. Most (n = 49, 53.3%) were indexed in PubMed. Journals established >10 y were more likely to be indexed in PubMed compared to journals established <5 y (28 of 41 [68.3%] versus 4 of 20 [20%], P < 0.001). 44 journals (47.8%) used a double-blind review method. 49 (53.2%) journals received an impact factor for 2021, ranging from <0.1 to 10.2 (median 1.4). The median APC was $362 United States dollar [interquartile range $0 – 1802 United States dollar]. 35 journals (38%) did not charge a processing fee. There was a significant positive correlation between the APC and impact factor (r = 0.61, P < 0.001). If accepted, the median time from manuscript submission to publication was 12 wk. ConclusionsOpen access surgical journals are largely indexed on PubMed, have transparent review processes, employ variable APCs (including no publication fees), and proceed efficiently from submission to publication. These results should increase readers’ confidence in the quality of surgical literature published in open access journals.

MEDIA PLURALISM IN THE DIGITAL ENVIRONMENT FROM THE USERS’ POINT OF VIEW

The rapid development of communication platforms and services on the Internet created the conditions for greater audience participation in the online sphere. Parallel to the emergence of new communication spaces in which different ideas, opinions, and attitudes can be generated, there is a trend of algorithmic arrangement of content that is distributed to media users. Cognitive horizon narrowing, fake news, and public polarization are just a few of the consequences of these algorithmic calculations. Media pluralism, which is seen as an essential quality and norm of a democratic and informed society, is facing unique challenges. Given that previous researchers of media pluralism did not consider users’ perspectives, this exploratory study aims to identify media users’ perceptions and interpretations of the phenomenon. From the perspective of the user, the paper examines four dimensions of media pluralism: access to news sources and quality journalism; credibility, trust in the media, and attitudes toward misinformation; media transparency, and the ability to locate or avoid news (Klimkiewicz, 2019). An online questionnaire was used to collect the data. The conclusion is that ignoring citizen journalism and communication with media users, as well as the lack of opportunities for users to manage information in the online space, leads to an increase and deepening of the gap between the media and users.

Authorship capital and reforming the Russian publication system

The article is devoted to the problem of improving the governance of publication systems, within which their actors interact in producing scientific publications, supplying them to readers, as well as in funding and coordinating corresponding processes. It is emphasized that the ownership of a scientific text includes two components: the right to a monetary reward for the use of the article by the consumer and authorship. The first component can be passed to another person, but the second cannot. Authorship is the basis for building up an individual intangible asset, which we call authorship capital. The desire to increase it determines the dual role of the author in the publication system: he is not only a producer of the knowledge embodied in the article, but also, along with the reader, its ultimate consumer. The dual role of the journal is also noted, which, organizing the review process, turns out to be not only a supplier of articles, but also a producer of knowledge. These two features give rise to a variety of possible financing schemes for publishing systems. The specific features of knowledge as a private and public good are analyzed. One of them is the high cost of knowledge consumption. Due to this and a number of other circumstances, the market model for financing publication systems is inefficient; the most important task is the transition to open access. Such a transition should be accompanied by improved methods for evaluating the performance of researchers and the quality of journals. The comparison of large groups of objects (e. g., journals or research institutions) is inevitably based on citation indicators, while expertise can play only a supporting role. On the contrary, when it comes to making decisions within a small group, e. g., when allocating given funds among laboratory members, expert evaluations must play a decisive role. The directions of reform of the Russian publication system are discussed, ensuring the reduction of rent-seeking activity and increasing the adequacy of the indicators used.

Revenue Destruction and Distribution Dependency: The Economic Impact of Digital Platforms on Newspapers and Magazines in Taiwan

&lt;p&gt;本研究透過產業問卷調查與對媒體經營者的深度訪談等多種方法，蒐集近十年的產業資料，發現跨國平台對本地新聞出版業造成「營收破壞」與「流通依賴」。新聞業紙本發行減少50%，廣告量分別遽降80% 與60%；兩者在廣告市場占比從合計30% 降到3.5%，網路從20% 提高至65%。Google與Facebook兩大平台在網路廣告市場則估約60-80%。由於流通依賴兩大平台，媒體報導方向朝演算法傾斜。平台單方決定演算法更動與內容審查，形成不平等關係。本研究建議未來應採取演算法公開問責、或向平台抽取特別公課以成立獨立基金等政策，以修補破壞與改變依賴。&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Through an industrial questionnaire survey in-depth interviews with publishers, this study examines how digital platforms have affected Taiwanese publishers in the 2010s. Transnational platforms have resulted in revenue destruction and distribution dependency for local news publishers. The circulation of newspapers and magazines has decreased by approximately 50%, and advertising revenue has decreased by 80% and 60% respectively. Newspapers and magazines&amp;rsquo; share of the media advertising market has decreased from 30% to 3.5%, and that of the Internet has increased from 20% to 65%. Google and Facebook dominate the advertising market with their collective share of the online advertising market being estimated at 60-80%. The news production has become reliant on these two platforms. Digital platforms determine algorithms, content, and profit sharing and dominate the media. To improve the quality journalism, this paper suggests the transparency of platforms&amp;rsquo; algorithms and the establishment of an independent news funds by taxing the platforms.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

Women entrepreneurship in the internationalization of SMEs: a bibliometric analysis for future research directions

PurposeThis study aims to systematically review papers on women’s entrepreneurship in the internationalization of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) by examining the research profile (i.e. publication trends, publishers, domain and quality of journals, methodologies and units of analysis and regional classifications), internationalization entry modes and the theories underpinning, key variables using AMO framework (i.e. antecedents, mediators, moderators and outcomes) and suggestions for potential future studies.Design/methodology/approachThis study used bibliometric analysis by selecting 62 relevant papers from 3,016 papers collected from the Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar and EBSCO databases. Content analysis was conducted to identify key research issues and gaps, which were then mapped on an AMO framework to address potential future research.FindingsThis study found that the number of papers published during the period 1994–September 2022 fluctuated, indicating an increasing trend of women’s entrepreneurship research in the internationalization of SMEs being published in various reputable journals by well-known publishers. This study also found several alternatives of internationalization entry modes, although export is still the most widely used alternative. Various theories that underlie this research include internationalization theory, resource-based theory, feminist theory and international entrepreneurship. This study proposes a future research framework on women’s entrepreneurship in the internationalization of SMEs: AMO.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the intersection of gender-focused international business and entrepreneurship domains. This study proposes a conceptual model of women’s entrepreneurship in internationalization of SMEs by mapping the antecedents, mediators/moderators and outcomes and offers promising opportunities for future research directions.

Transformation and Challenges of Digital Journalism in Aceh

Technological developments have changed the distribution pattern and access to information from conventional to digital media. Hence, digital journalism has an impact on the media industry and journalists. The purpose of this research is to analyze the transformation and challenges of digital journalism from the perspective of journalists in Aceh. This research uses a desciptive qualitative approach. Interviews were conducted with ten journalists in Aceh from print, radio, television, and online media. Validity of the data was tested using the technique of triangulation of sources and data analysis of the Miles and Huberman models, namely data reduction, presentation, and verification. The results of journalism platform research in the digital era adapt to media convergence. The journalism format incorporates text, video, and images. The challenge is maintaining the quality of journalism, both credibility, and accuracy. Journalists must improve their abilities and skills in using digital technology in order to survive.

Editors’ Perceptions and Views on Journal Quality: The Case of Iran’s Editors-in-Chief

Abstract The study aimed to determine the perceptions and views of Iranian editors about the quality of journals, articles, the responsibilities of the editorial team, review and the review process, copyright and intellectual property, consequences of open access (OA), and influential factors in the scientific life cycle of a journal. The study adopted a qualitative approach using interviews. Respondents included 13 editors of journals. Purposive and snowball sampling methods were used for the interview. The results showed that the editor’s main tasks were to supervise the reviewers’ performance, initially control the article, and send it to the reviewers. Participants believed that compliance with professional standards was the main factor influencing the scientific quality of publications. Their understanding of the ethical codes includes impartiality and confidentiality in evaluation and publication. In light of the fact that reviewers often perform superficial reviews, the editors viewed them as poor-quality. They stated that intellectual property is not valued and observed in many cases. Some participants mentioned the negative consequences of open access (OA). However, they think OA bears more positive than adverse outcomes. Observance of these factors is ultimately essential for the survival of a scientific journal.

Inconsistent quality signals: evidence from the regional journals.

Nowadays many countries and institutions use bibliometric assessment of journal quality in their research evaluation policies. However, bibliometric measures, such as impact factor or quartile, may provide a biased quality assessment for relatively new, regional, or non-mainstream journals, as these outlets usually do not possess a longstanding history, and may not be included into indexing databases. To reduce the information asymmetry between academic community (researchers, editors, policymakers) and journal management, we propose an alternative approach to evaluate journals quality signals using previous publication track record of authors. We explore the difference in the quality signals sent by regional journals. Traditional, journal-level, bibliometric measures are contrasted with generalised measures of authors' publishing records. We used a set of 50,477 articles and reviews in 83 regional journals in Physics and Astronomy (2014-2019) to extract and process data on 73 866 authors and their additional 329,245 publications in other Scopus-indexed journals. We found that traditional journal-level measures (such as journal quartile, CiteScore percentile, Scimago Journal Rank) tend to under-evaluate journal quality, thus contributing to an image of low-quality research venues. Author-level measures (including the share of papers in the Nature Index journals) send positive signals of journal quality and allow us to subdivide regional journals by their publishing strategies. These results suggest that research evaluation policies might consider attributing greater weight to regional journals, not only for the training purposes of doctoral students but also for gaining international visibility and impact.

Reports of practitioners’ use of public affairs faculty published research

ABSTRACT Using a unique dataset built around published papers in top quality public policy, public administration and program evaluation journals, we find that 29.7% of respondent authors indicate that the knowledge from their articles was used by policymakers or public administrators. These data are used to test for different patterns of use for policy vs management knowledge. Findings suggest that journal quality positively affects policy use but negatively affects management use and that topics suggested by practitioners affect management use but not policy use. The researchers’ degree of motivation to have their work used is important in both types of knowledge use. Overall, the results suggest there may be greater spillovers to practical use derived from standard academic publishing pursuits than generally believed.
