I wrote to ask about the journal psychology research, and the answer is hilarious :). the website was hacked? seriously?
ReplyDeleteDear Mr/Ms ,
Nice to get your email
In fact, we are very sorry about these negative comments. They are come from some reasons: 1. Some authors are not willing to pay for the publication fee, then when we charged the fees, they think we are a scam. But because there is no sponsor for our journal, we have to charge some fees. Can you understand us? 2. Our publication plan sometimes has to be delayed because some authors returned their proofread papers to us late. Then some other authors have to wait for very long time to receive their journals, then they thought us cheated them. But finally, they all received the journals but they have alreay put the negative comments on the internet alrady. We can not know who have put the negative comments and they will not delete the comments though they received the journals finally. 3. Our website has been hacked many times and then some authors can not find our website, then they thought us as a scam. 4. You can find the list of our editorial board members and reviewers on our website. All the papers submitted to our journal will undergo peer reviewing process. And we have many reserved reviewers, they have not placed on our website, they must have examination and verification, then they can pass. And some reviewers have many other things and cannot serve with us at a later stage, and we have to replace them. Maybe there are some other reasons. But we will try to improve our service. Please understand us and support us. Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Sincerely

Thanks for the heads up - just gooogled to check these people are as scammy as they appear.
ReplyDeleteI published with Psychology Research in 2020 and found them to be legitimate and enjoyable to work with. The editor responded quickly to emails. My paper was peer reviewed and reviewers' useful feedback was incorporated into the final paper. The online publication was professionally done and received wide distribution.
