Towards a publication strategy

At the beginning it all starts with good research
After you've completed your excellent research
you should consider your options carefully
when it comes to publishing

The impact factor Matthew effect
"The journal in which papers are published have a
strong influence on their citation rates, as duplicate
papers published in high-impact journals obtain, on
average, twice as many citations as their identical
counterparts published in journals with lower impact
factors"
Larivière, V. and Y. Gingras (2010). The impact factor's Matthew Effect: A natural experiment in bibliometrics. Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology 61(2): 424-427. http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/asi.21232
Where you publish matters most
"Where you publish is the primary
determinant of how many citations your work
will receive in the future"
Peng, T.-Q. & J.J.H. Zhu (2012). Where you publish matters most: A multilevel analysis of factors affecting citations of internet studies. Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 63(9): 1789-1803 http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/asi.22649
Final word on journal quality
"It is better to publish one paper in a quality journal
than multiple papers in lesser journals. [...]. Try to
publish in journals that have high impact factors;
chances are your paper will have high impact, too, if
accepted."
Bourne, P. E. (2005). Ten Simple Rules for Getting Published. PLoS Computational Biology 1(5): e57. http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.0010057

University-industry collaboration and impact
"The average scientific impact of university-
industry papers is significantly above that of
both university-only papers and industry-only
papers"

What do PhD theses mean for Open Access at Wageningen UR
VLAG PhD students set out to publish 5.5 article per thesis
Finally 4.5 article per thesis gets published
This represent
Preprints of 4.5 * 200 = 900 articles/year
ca. 36% of all peer reviewed Wageningen UR articles
After your thesis publication what are your options for Open Access publishing?
Open Access publishing
Golden Road e.g. PLoS, BMC, SpringerOpen, Sage Open
●Directory of open access journals DOAJ (currently 9957 journals)
●Often author pays model; many society publishers for free
Delayed OA publishing
●Cambridge UP, Highwire press, many society publishers
Green Road : self-archiving in repositories e.g. Wageningen Yield (WaY)
Green Road: Deposit author versions to WaY

Open Access Publishing
Open Access leads to more citations!
●Open access increases societal relevance
●Vital for Wageningen's international collaborators
Be aware of predatory publishers!
●Have a look at Beall's list
You are what you cite
Increased impact? Advertise yourself!
Self citations
"The model implies that external citations are
enhanced by self-citations, so that we have the
'chain reaction:' Larger size leads to more self-
citations, which lead to more external
citations"
11/28
van Raan, A. F. J. (2008). Self-citation as an impact-reinforcing mechanism in the science system. Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology 59(10): 1631-1643. http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/asi.20868
More on references
Articles that cite more references are in turn cited more themselves

To be the best, cite the bestBorrowed from: Corbyn, Z. (2010). "To be the best, cite the best." Nature News, 13 October 2010, http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/news.2010.539 Reporting on the publication of Bornmann, L., F. de Moya Anegón, et al. (2010). Do Scientific Advancements Lean on the Shoulders of Giants? A Bibliometric Investigation of the Ortega Hypothesis. PLoS ONE 5(10): e13327 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0013327.
More articles per research project?
Publishing more articles results in higher citation counts if the articles provide sufficient substantive content to other researchers.
●Beware of the ethical standards
●Bornmann looked at total citations, not to relative impact
Bornmann, L. & H.-D. Daniel (2007). Multiple publication on a single research study: Does it pay? The influence of number of research articles on total citation counts in biomedicine.

Wageningen UR Data Management Proof
Why is data management important
Good data management improves thinking and writing up your results
Data should be reproducible 5 years after publication (code of conduct)
It facilitates sharing of data with other researchers
Why is data management important
Good data management improves thinking and writing up your results
Data should be reproducible 5 years after publication (code of conduct)
It facilitates sharing of data with other researchers
As of April 2014, a Data Management Plan becomes mandatory for new PhD students
Sharing data increases impact
"Publicly available data was significantly associated with a
69% increase in citations, independently of journal impact
factor, date of publication, and author country of origin"

You should repair the damage
Make your
1. Google Scholar Citations profile publically available
2. Make a researcherID (in Web of Science)
3. Check your Scopus profile
4. Couple 2 & 3 to ORCiD

Get your affiliation right
For the university:
Chair group + Wageningen University
Plant Production Systems Group, Wageningen University, P.O. box ..., 6700 HA Wageningen, The Netherlands
For the institutes:
Institute + Wageningen University & Research Centre
Alterra, Wageningen University & Research Centre, P.O. box ..., 6700 HA Wageningen, The Netherlands
Conclusions
It all starts with good research
Think about where you publish
Science is a team effort
Consider Open Access publishing
Your data will become as important as publications
Be careful with your name and affiliation
Thank you!
