Oddbean new post about login | logout Hanson et al, ‘The strain on scientific publishing’ 2016: 1.9 million articles 2022: 2.8 million articles ‘Scientists are increasingly overwhelmed by the volume of articles being published... in 2022 the article total was 47% higher than in 2016, which has outpaced the limited growth, if any, in the number of practising scientists. Thus, publication workload per scientist (writing, reviewing, editing) has increased dramatically.’ https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.15884 #science #academia https://cdn.masto.host/akademienlsocial/media_attachments/files/111/192/635/657/851/367/original/14cae9880addb45e.jpeg
