Open access self-archiving: An author study
No full textThis, our second author international, cross-disciplinary study on open access had 1296 respondents. Its focus was on self-archiving. Almost half (49%) of the respondent population have self-archived at least one article during the last three years. Use of institutional repositories for this purpose has doubled and usage has increased by almost 60% for subject-based repositories. Self-archiving activity is greatest amongst those who publish the largest number of papers. There is still a substantial proportion of authors unaware of the possibility of providing open access to their work by self-archiving. Of the authors who have not yet self-archived any articles, 71% remain unaware of the option. With 49% of the author population having self-archived in some way, this means that 36% of the total author population (71% of the remaining 51%), has not yet been appraised of this way of providing open access. Authors have frequently expressed reluctance to self-archive because of the perceived time required and possible technical difficulties in carrying out this activity, yet findings here show that only 20% of authors found some degree of difficulty with the first act of depositing an article in a repository, and that this dropped to 9% for subsequent deposits. Another author worry is about infringing agreed copyright agreements with publishers, yet only 10% of authors currently know of the SHERPA/RoMEO list of publisher permissions policies with respect to self-archiving, where clear guidance as to what a publisher permits is provided. Where it is not known if permission is required, however, authors are not seeking it and are self-archiving without it. Communicating their results to peers remains the primary reason for scholars publishing their work; in other words,
researchers publish to have an impact on their field. The vast majority of authors (81%) would willingly comply with a mandate from their employer or research funder to deposit copies of their articles in an institutional or subject-based repository. A further 13% would comply reluctantly; 5% would not comply with such a mandate

Integrity in Publishing: Some Considerations for Dealing with Complaints about Author Misconduct
No full textComplaints made to editors about an author’s unethical behaviour relating to work submitted for publication or work that has already been published must be dealt with in accordance with The Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). Despite the ramifications of breaches of ethical practice, there is little published information about how complaints relating to author misconduct are managed. This paper provides an overview of the subject and will be of interest to authors and would-be authors
Author Name Disambiguation using Large Language Models: Contributions to a system for open reproducible publication research
No full textAuthor name disambiguation, otherwise described as (publication) record linking, is a problem that has had considerable research dedicated to its solv- ing. Author attributions, calculating research met- rics and conducting literature reviews are amongst processes that experience increased difficulty due to ambiguous author names. In this study, a novel approach is presented to disambiguate au- thors related to scientific publications, using Large Language Models (LLMs) in combination with the Alexandria3k software package. LLMs have shown great potential in processing, analysing and drawing conclusions when presented with human- readable data. The approach presented in this study supplies a LLM with known attributes of publica- tion records and authors, such as names, affiliations and co-authors, to determine whether records writ- ten by authors with ambiguous names can be linked to the same real-world person. Using Alexan- dria3k, a dataset of authors and publications with confirmed identities is created to test and validate the approach. Finally, the approach is measured against state-of-the-art methods to disambiguate author names and different configurations are pre- sented and discussed.CSE3000 Research ProjectComputer Science and Engineerin
