The catalog of illegal journals published by the country (including the method of identifying fake journals)

Can journals not included in CNKI publish papers on it?

Publishing academic papers in academic journals is unavoidable for every scientific researcher. For some novices who are new to the academic circle, they will definitely encounter many problems with various fake journals, magazines, and supplements, and fall into the pit if they are not careful. Today, Teacher Liu briefly talked to everyone about the journals.

01. Fake journals

Fake journals, as the name implies, are fake journals, as opposed to real journals. Fake journals can actually be divided into several categories: one is "cloning and counterfeiting regular journals", embezzling the number of genuine journals and printing them privately. False journals have been rampant in our country for many years and have been repeatedly banned. Fake journals appear especially in the field of basic education, because elementary and middle school teachers also need to appraise titles and publish papers, but their understanding of academic journals is not as deep as that of college teachers. Therefore, the field of basic education There are many fake journals, such as "Basic Education" sponsored by East China Normal University, " Teaching and Research" sponsored by Renmin University of China, etc., all have fake journals.

The second is to directly fabricate the title of the journal, claiming to be a regular journal. For example, there is a journal "Innovative Education", which is not available in the General Administration of Press and Publication, which means that it is impossible to have an issue number. However, the cover of the journal is blatantly printed with forged CN and ISSN issues. Publishing papers in such journals must be a pitfall.

It should be noted that even if you inquire at the General Administration of Press and Publication,It is not always possible to accurately distinguish fake journals. For example, if you inquire about "Basic Education" in the General Administration of Press and Publication, you can see that this publication is indeed available. However, papers published in the "Basic Education" through illegal means such as intermediaries are likely to be counterfeit, and they will certainly not be retrieved on CNKI. In fact, the method of judgment is relatively simple. Dual-core journals such as "Basic Education" are very difficult to publish, and it is impossible to publish one or two pages of hydrology with a thousand characters. If you recognize your own level, you won't be deceived.

02. Package

package, is a magazine that publishes several issues of one issue, which are marked as early, mid, late, etc., or academic, theoretical, etc., that is More than one issue. Strictly speaking, kits are not fake, and articles published in kits are not problematic. For example, "Teaching and Management" sponsored by Taiyuan Normal University is divided into middle school edition, elementary school edition and theory edition. It is published in upper, middle and lower thirties. Any edition can be searched on CNKI.

The main point is that some journals with the same name do not belong to multiple journals and are not counted as sets of journals. For example, in the Press and Publication Administration, you can retrieve the medical, philosophy and social sciences edition, and natural science editions of " Journal of Peking University ". Each edition has its own issue number .

03. Supplements

Supplements are publications in which papers are separately collected and published by some regular journals. The supplement is not a fake journal in the strict sense, but the articles published in the supplement are basically useless. Most of the articles published in the supplement are not included in CNKI, and most organizations do not approve the supplement.

For several major domestic literature databases, the inclusion standards of CNKI and Wanfang.com are relatively stricter. Generally, Chinese journals that can be searched on CNKI are legal and can be found in the General Administration of Press and Publication. The journals found; some of the journals included in Longyuan and Weipu are not available in the General Administration of Press and Publication. This is easy for authors who are not familiar with journal identification methods.
