This analysis of 229 editorials and opinion pieces published in science and medical journals explores the affective discourses used to characterise so-called predatory publishing. Most (84%, n = 193) deploy one or more of three related categories of metaphorical and figurative language (fear, fakery and exploitation) to strengthen their rhetorical case. This paper examines the deployment, co-occurrence and amplification of this language across the science publishing system, focusing particularly on the role of major science journals in adopting and normalising this emotive discourse. The analysis shows how few editorials offer alternative perspectives on these developments (n = 9), and their relative invisibility in scholarly debates.

怕学术造假?期刊社论和“掠夺性出版”话语的放大

这篇对发表在科学和医学期刊上的 229 篇社论和评论文章的分析探讨了用于描述所谓掠夺性出版的情感话语。大多数(84%,n = 193)使用三种相关的隐喻和比喻语言(恐惧、虚假和剥削)中的一种或多种来加强他们的修辞案例。本文研究了这种语言在整个科学出版系统中的部署、共现和放大,特别关注主要科学期刊在采用和规范这种情绪化话语方面的作用。分析表明,很少有社论对这些发展(n = 9)提供替代观点,并且它们在学术辩论中相对不可见。
