Publishing research paper in a reputable journal is to make an immerse contribution to the scientific community through quality research. Publishing without payment would allow many researchers to have their papers published to help the scientific community, however, because of the cost involved most researchers are restricted from publishing in some quality and expensive journals.
Without payment !!!!!! May mean not so attractive :) I am sorry that should not be the criteria yet the IF and subsequent citations are better when paid...
I honestly , would not consider , in fact I do not like too much of open access too...
Any writer while submitting his article has with him the experience & the knowledge which the author desire to convey the same to viewers &readers so that they may remain aware regarding the status of article & also sometime they may receive the comments from the readers which may remain a guiding factor .
In this line every author may not be after the payment as they are more interested to pass the knowledge in their publication .
Distinguished members of the RG and my supporters, I would like to thank your various opinions. I hope that not only me and our other friends will benefit from your comment.
I sincerely thank you for all your answers to my question. Dear, please excuse me that I can not recommend at least one , because I respect all equally.
I am in agreement with Nirmala S.V.S.G. Novelty is very important and creativity leads to originality and therefore usually lead to acceptance and publication. In research we call it why should we be care or allot these pages to you.
Thanks to all of you who dedicate part of your free time to my question. Your various answers stimulate my thinking on the subject. I'm glad to get information from people from different countries of the world.
Interesting discussion on the the most influential factor in publication in top journals. I have done over 200 of these and I have indicated what brought 200 successes in a rigorous field.
Thanks for all your answers and all your tips. I hope this is useful not only for me, but for all others who follow my questions. By "socializing with you within the question" now I really have a different sense of the topic we are discussing.
The popularity of the author matters a lot in international journals which are not paid. Of course acceptance is better when the research is new and an eye opener for others
Ladies and Gentlemen, I am glad that in these warm days I have kept your attention to my questions. I will not argue with you all about your answers because I respect every opinion, I will just give you a big thank you. Greetings from me to all of you
