(Scientometrics 85(2):553-559, 2010) on "Natural selection of academic papers". The criticism mainly focusses on their unbalanced criticism of peer review and their negative evaluation of the link of peer review with commercial publishing. | Notes: | [Egghe, L] Univ Hasselt Uhasselt, B-3590 Diepenbeek, Belgium [Egghe, L] Univ Antwerpen UA, B-2000 Antwerp, Belgium | Keywords: | Peer review; Commercial publishing; Open access;Peer review; Commercial publishing; Open access | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/12063 | ISSN: | 0138-9130 | e-ISSN: | 1588-2861 | DOI: | 10.1007/s11192-011-0395-9 | ISI #: | 000292210400022 | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution | Validations: | ecoom 2012 |
