R 04 Fighting the Fakes: Combatting Predatory Publishers at Every Level of Research and Scholarship

Monday, 23 July 2018: 8:30 AM-9:45 AM
Summary: Predatory publishers are a blight on nursing research and publishing. Nursing authors are particularly vulnerable because of nursing’s relative newness to the academy and scholarly writing. This symposium describes how predatory publishers work, highlights their damage to nursing research credibility, and gives policy and practical advice on avoiding them.
