【撤稿观察】今天报导了对付费给出版顶级杂志文章人的搜寻结果：

最近消息显示，中国的科学家如果在一本顶级杂志上发表论文可以赚到高达165,000美元，但这不是研究人员可以获得额外现金的唯一地方。

最近，我们对世界各地的其他机构进行了非正式的搜索，为出版研究提供现金奖励，并对我们发现的事情感到惊讶。

人们对这些激励措施提出了担忧，因为他们通常只是提交了让顶级期刊负担的并不需要的提高出版率而已。 此外，有人担心这些激励措施可能会鼓励诸如中国等国家的欺诈性出版实践，如假同行评议。

下面是调查结果和原文：

Paid to publish: It’s not just China

A recent pre-print showed that scientists in China can earn up to $165,000 to publish a paper in a top journal, but that’s not the only place where researchers can get some extra cash.

Recently, we conducted an informal search for other institutions around the world that offer cash prizes for publishing research — and were surprised at what we found.

People have raised concerns about these incentives, given that they often just overload top journals with submissions, but don’t necessarily increase publication rates. Furthermore, there are concerns that these kinds of incentives can encourage fraudulent publishing practices — such as fake peer reviews — out of countries such as China.
