By following a recently published paper entitled "The effect of publishing a highly cited paper on a journal's impact factor: a case study of the Review of Particle Physics" in Learned Publishing, we argue that it is not suitable for journals to bid for the right to publish a review that is likely to be highly cited. A few suggestions are also provided to deal with the special case of the Review of Particle Physics phenomenon.
根据最近发表在《学术出版》上的一篇题为“发表高引论文对期刊影响因子的影响:以《粒子物理评论》为例”的论文,我们认为期刊争取发表极有可能被高引的综述文章的做法并不合适。文中还针对《粒子物理评论》现象这一特殊情况提供了一些建议。
