In this latest post on the LSE Impact Blog, our Executive Director, Damian Pattinson, and Content Manager, George Currie, discuss the rise of journals as holders of brand value over research quality and how our industry could help escape this dynamic.

I am so excited about getting this book out! 🤓 Although we still need to write it. 😅 I am really happy to be working together with the best people, Marianne Achiam, Sabrina Vitting-Seerup, Lou Whiteley and Martin Grünfeld, to write this book. Personally, I am particularly looking forward to publishing a chapter on how we can imagine new futures by thinking with history. We need to entangle the past, present and future to produce new ideas and practices to tackle the big issues we are facing in order for us to be able to live in a sustainable future. 💡
I am so excited that my research group can now sign a contract with Bristol University Press in the amazing series: Contemporary Issues in Science Communication! Our working title: Science Communication as Sustainability - Arts-Based Approaches The actual book won't hit the shelves before 2026, but I have already enjoyed the process of thinking up the concept and getting constructive peer review on our idea. We are working together as a group on the whole book, consolidating theory, finding great examples, and just really benefitting from the interdisciplinarity of our group. Thanks to Marianne Achiam, Jacob Thorek Jensen, Lou Whiteley, and Martin Grünfeld for going into this project with me. Now, let's write a book 📖

More rigor is needed notably in the nutrition field
10,000 instances of research retraction in a single year. That's 10,000 times that data made it out in the world, conclusions were drawn, opinions formed, decisions made - based on inaccuracies. I know I rely on heavily on the research of others for what I do, and I am probably as guilty as anyone of not keeping a close eye on retractions. But we can't just rely on retractions. All of us in the scientific community bear some responsibility for the accuracy of what gets published. The process of Peer Review is how we all contribute and create a stronger community. Don't know where to start? - Taylor & Francis Group publishes a guide (link in comments) - Clarivate Web of Science (Formerly Publons Academy) offers an awesome e-learning course (link in comments) - Elsevier also has a Certified Peer Reviewer Course (link in comments) Peer review takes time, you don't get paid, and you don't get credit. But you feel really good about it and you get to be part of the solution to an ongoing problem. Also, if you don't follow Ted Kyle and ConscienHealth you should start doing that in 2024. #peerreview #retraction #scientificintegrity #research

For transitions to #OpenAccess, the removal of reader-facing barriers to academic content can lead to cost-related, author-facing limitations to ability to publish research, which institution-supported models can address, while adding to sustainability https://ow.ly/bP6550PFiYU

A call to the G20: “Research publishing is more important, more lucrative, and more broken than most people realise. The sector is dominated by an oligopoly and impeded by market failures. In 2022, the five biggest publishers had a combined revenue of US$7.7 billion, with profit margins of up to 38 percent. They made only 31 percent of their articles Open Access (without paywall) and only 25 percent of their journals were fully Open Access. The median publication charge was $2,860 but could be as high as $11,690. This means taxpayer-funded public research is too often locked behind paywalls” #openscience #G20

Improving life on planet Earth – a #calltoaction for #service #research to achieve the sustainable development goals (#SDGs)
Fulbrighter, Professor of Marketing & Captain, Tommy & Victoria Baker School of Business, The Citadel| Co-Editor, Journal of Services Marketing
In a recent Journal of Services Marketing editorial, Prof. Rebekah Russell-Bennett, Ray Fisk, Maria Raciti, and I put forth 7 "service research themes" that align with ServCollab's mission of improving human and planetary life via services. You can download it for free at https://lnkd.in/gtA2zQ_K This editorial offers seven research themes for service researchers: services that enable the well-being of the human species; services that provide opportunity for all humans; services that manage resources for all humans; economic services for work and growth for all humans; services from institutions that offer fair and sustainable living for all humans; service ecosystems with the planet; and collaboration services for sustainable development partnerships. Please take note that, in accordance with Standard 8.3, academic research at AACSB-accredited institutions must include examples of fundamental, applied, and/or pedagogical research that has positively impacted society and is in line with the school's mission. Along these lines, the Journal of Services Marketing welcomes papers that align with the ServCollab Service Research Themes. We encourage service scholars to engage in transformative research that alleviates suffering, enhances well-being, and facilitates well-becoming for the planet Earth's sustainability and prosperity.

It may not be incorrect to state that I am just getting into the Decolonization caravan. While Bournemouth University through Dr. Sam got me glued to my small screen. Leeds University was also parading a galaxy of stars in media studies. The concern was ‘Researching Media Production in the Global South.’ The last session has giants in the field at a round table conference. The topic was sound and I guess they came up with very innovative ideas. Just like a curious scholar, I would be all eyes to consume what they came up with.... The line up as you would soon see brought voices anyone would like to listen to; the University of Nottingham was represented by George Ogola (Professor of Media Industries, Faculty of Arts), Last Moyo (Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University). The University of Botswana had in attendance Allen Munoriyarwa (a senior lecturer in Media, Journalism and Surveillance Researcher). You may be wondering what someone from Copenhagen Business School was doing on the panel. Dr. Robin Steedman's interest areas span creative and cultural industries African film and media, Media studies, Critical data studies & Gender studies. The last but not the least was the chair of the panel and the brain behind the one day conference. Professor Anna Zoellner (University of Leeds). So how can scholars De-Westernize Media Production Research? If you are as curious as myself, you just may want to know what Media Production research entails. Media production research is a broad field that examines how various forms of media content are created, from films and television shows to video games and social media posts. Traditionally, this research has been dominated by a Western perspective, focusing heavily on media industries and practices in Europe and North America. I guess now is the time to look at other geo-political regions for fresh perspectives. So, what Is your take on this very important Round Table exchange of ideas?

#GESISBlog New blog post: Birte Kuhle writes about the project #Wi4Impact and explores the potential of digital media in knowledge transfer. Despite the potential of #digitalmedia to enhance the impact of research and science, they can also impede effective #knowledgetransfer. https://lnkd.in/eb3gkSgp

Interesting new research from the American Marketing Association, published in the Journal of Marketing, about the power of university and industry collaboration as a strong marketing tool. The research suggests consumers perceive products as more attractive when portrayed as developed in collaboration with a university, and this collaboration provides a stronger sense of scientific legitimacy. This effect is more pronounced when scientific legitimacy is important to the product, project, company, and/or target consumer. One study shows participants willing to pay 65% more for the same product when it was portrayed as being co-developed with a university! So, whether you are developing a new consumer product or service or championing a major project, consider the marketing benefits of university collaboration. #marketing #publicrelations https://lnkd.in/g6MT5DaW
