You dont have to do EVERYTHING the reviewers demand. I find I usually comply the amendments demanded by Reviewer 1 but lose patience by the time I get to the 2nd half of Reviewer 2's list. If you feel a Reviewer is asking for something unnecessary, I find putting your foot down usually works for me.
I just started a PhD and looking forward to publish. This video just made me feel like the academic publishing process is corrupt and may not be worth my time. What is the point of doing honest research only to be hijacked by some publishing jackals.
Everything is corrupt in one way or the other in this world. Do you think the application process at Ivy league universities are fair or the Job market is fair. Nope absolutely not you just gotta understand the ins and outs of the system and how to game it nothing more. If you know the right people then opportunities will open up to you. So networking is more essential. Don't let these reasons stop you from pursuing your passion for research in a particular field. You just gotta mold it and prepare your mind to handle and tackle some of the unfairness that comes your way that's all.

That's true, but there is an extreme disconnect with being in an industry the promotes and preaches the critical nature of ethics, punishes anyone caught doing so and yet turns a blind eye to what is going on in its own world.

If I may give you my two cents - I'm a research scientist in the field of analytical chemistry and I often publish my research in peer reviewed journals. At the same time, I'm often contacted by editors and asked to review articles they received for publication. The bottom line is: authors and reviewers are the same people, as long as they do research in the same field. The more you publish, the more you are seen as an expert in your field and are asked to review papers from your peers. Just one little detail - no one is paid in this process
@@enricoginelli3405 When you are contacted by a journal editor who invites you to review an article, it's up to you to accept or reject the invitation. If you are too busy and cannot meet the deadline, or feel that you don't have enough expertise in that particular topic, then you should reject and suggest other potential reviewers. But if you think you can actually provide valid suggestions and comments on that work, then you should accept it. You are part of a community, and if you publish frequently on peer reviewed journals, then it is your "duty" to return the favour to other researchers. That's part of the self-correcting mechanism that characterises scientific research.
Your qualifications don't matter the name of your institution and your co-author such as supervisor reputation in that said field play a huge role in the journal review process. Also luck is the primary factor so get ready to get loads of rejections.
I just had my first rejection. I'm so happy and sad :c My professor aimed too high sending my degree final work to a very good journal and I received a terrible critic from reviewers. I knew my work wasn't so good, but stills hurts. Was my professor right being so optimistic, or was he irresponsible?
Nah, it's fine. However, make sure to go through reviewer feedback and address them. Some of those reviewers give really good feedback and suggestions.
There is no right or wrong answer to it. Every professor wants publication at top journals some papers go through smoothly some papers will give you hell. you just gotta breeze through them nothing more. Although that's easier said than done. Just learn and improve yourselves while getting the feedback from reviewers and lower down your journal quality as you receive rejections. Since time is of the essence while you are pursuing your PhD.
You probably submitted your paper to a predatory journal, it happened to me as well once. I suggest that you withdraw your submission and try with another, more reputable journal

hello, am also in the field of sociology (education) would you please direct me to journals that help me to Publish ?

I don't think Andy speaks particularly slow, but he's so fun to watch at 2x speed
Fun fact, Andy actually speaks at 2x speed and he slows his videos down to normal.

You saved me writing the same comment!

@@RicRaftis very well said
There is no point. Leave as soon as you can.
I have a paper in Advanced Mat. Not so hard to get if someone like me can 😅. (Yes I am still working on my Impostor Syndrom to this day)
Jealous!
I'm in Computing/IT and I had one published earlier this year. I feel the exact same way you do lol
How about publish on your own and then “advertise “ your results on the conferences that your peers attend?
Hey Andy! Could you make a video about who the peer reviewers actually are, how they are chosen etc.? I feel like it is a vastly avoided topic.

@@gianluca.pastorelli thanks, much appreciated! But, why should you *choose* to be a reviewer then?

I never understand why we should pay them to publish our work 😭
Thanks Andy.love you ❤
Thanks for the tips Andy, fully agree with the marketing part!
Flexing some muscle, eeh! I see you've been working out 😃
@Andy
You're quite funny and interesting to learn from.
How did you get the Wiley Jour al Finder to work?
I had to submit the query a couple of time.
What about review/systematic review papers or some similar to these, do they must have something 'novel'?
Same question, in case anyone knows the answer :3
Can you publish having only two Master's degrees?

@@HellRaiZOR13: often times the submission is anonymous (double blinded), so noone knows you, your institution nor your coauthor at the review stage
@@itm1996 thats is pretty rare not many journals adopt it.
Yes

Well, after 3 rejections on one paper because the editors and reviewers clearly didn’t actually read it, I guess it's time to start being a suck-up 🤷
This is all fine, but quality of the paper rulez.

Since time is of the essence while you are pursuing your PhD.
The main question is: can you use the reviews to make your paper better?
Would you ever submit to multiple journals at the same time to avoid waiting months to only have to send your article to someone new if rejected?
Knowing people and kissing asses. Got it.
10:16 💀
Still waiting 10 months for the review
You probably submitted your paper to a predatory journal, it happened to me as well once. I suggest that you withdraw your submission and try with another, more reputable journal
The thing is that is a reputable Journal 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks Andy!🎉
No problem!
When was your last accepted solo publication?
