Productivity in science has increased and it is becoming more important for scientists to publish, to publish frequently, and to accumulate citations to their work. However, the peer review system may not only promote and advance but also hinder, prevent, or delay publication. In this personal perspective, confirmatory, consensual, competitive, and controversial publication strategies are described that they may meet with various degrees of approval or disapproval from the author's peers. The selected publication strategy may impact on the development of a career. Resolving controversies helps science advance efficiently. Therefore, controversies should be sought and addressed, although preferably not at the start of a career.
科学领域的生产力有所提高，对于科学家来说，发表论文、频繁发表论文以及积累他人对其作品的引用变得越来越重要。然而，同行评审系统不仅可能促进和推动发表，也可能阻碍、阻止或延迟发表。在这篇个人观点文章中，描述了证实性、协商性、竞争性和争议性的发表策略，这些策略可能会得到作者同行不同程度的认可或反对。所选的发表策略可能会影响职业生涯的发展。解决争议有助于科学高效地进步。因此，应该寻找并解决争议，不过最好不要在职业生涯开始时就这么做。
