论文摘要
我们介绍了Scopus数据库中代表的潜在掠食性期刊（PPJ）的大规模研究的结果，该研究广泛用于研究评估。杂志指标和国家 /地区，纪律数据均已评估了杰弗里·比尔尔（Jeffrey Beall）列出的不同群体的纪律数据，以及由于“出版物的关注”而被萨科普（Scopus）列出的纪律数据。我们的结果表明，即使经过多年的脱落，PPJ在Scopus数据库中仍然高度可见。 PPJ论文由所有主要国家不断生产，但股份不同。所有主要主题领域都受到影响。 PPJ论文数量最多的是工程和医学。平均而言，PPJ的引文指标比其他Scopus索引期刊低得多。最后，我们对哈萨克斯坦的案件进行了简要调查，其中一次PPJ论文的份额占Scopus中所有哈萨克斯坦论文的几乎一半，并提出了PPJ份额与国家研究评估政策之间的联系（特别是授予学士学位的规则）。潜在的掠夺性期刊研究的进展将变得越来越重要，因为在度量潮流时期，这种评估方法变得越来越普遍。
We present the results of a large-scale study of potentially predatory journals (PPJ) represented in the Scopus database, which is widely used for research evaluation. Both journal metrics and country, disciplinary data have been evaluated for different groups of PPJ: those listed by Jeffrey Beall and those delisted by Scopus because of "publication concerns". Our results show that even after years of delisting, PPJ are still highly visible in the Scopus database with hundreds of active potentially predatory journals. PPJ papers are continuously produced by all major countries, but with different shares. All major subject areas are affected. The largest number of PPJ papers are in engineering and medicine. On average, PPJ have much lower citation metrics than other Scopus-indexed journals. We conclude with a brief survey of the case of Kazakhstan where the share of PPJ papers at one time amounted to almost a half of all Kazakhstan papers in Scopus, and propose a link between PPJ share and national research evaluation policies (in particular, rules of awarding academic degrees). The progress of potentially predatory journal research will be increasingly important because such evaluation methods are becoming more widespread in times of the Metric Tide.
