I shared the following with my department colleagues: Have you ever received an invitation to be an editorial board member, present or publish your work in a newly minted open-access journal or be a guest speaker at international conference where you can showcase your latest research? There is an interesting discussion in another list about these phony journals or so-called "predatory publishers" and someone posted a link to a site which keeps track of them: http://scholarlyoa.com/2012/12/06/bealls-list-of-predatory-publishers-2013/. Right now only a few of the journals are in the social sciences, but given the rapid proliferation of these types of for-profit entities, more journals in psychology and other disciplines will start to show up in coming years or even months. Enjoy. Miguel
I have received all of the above. Lately, I have received several "Honorable Mentions" for which I am supposed to log into a news-digest service to view the list.
Anybody else been receiving those invitations? Ken ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Kenneth M. Steele, Ph.
