Benefits of open science. Impact, visibility and citation rates Open access leads (a) to higher citation and (b) to higher circulation rates. (Xxxxx 2018) Xxxxx’x (2018) analysis is based on the results of other studies on this topic. In 2017, three of the most cited journals were open access journals. (Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx 2018) A relatively new study by Xxxxxxx et al. (2018) estimates the share of open access to at least 28% of scientific literature. On average, open access publications achieve an 18% higher citation rate than conventional publications. (Xxxxxxx et al. 2018) This result is not an isolated case: according to the meta-study by Xxxxxxx et al. (Xxxxxxx et al. 2016), 46% of the studies analysed conclude that open access has a citation advantage. In addition to the positive correlation between open access and citation rates, other positive correlations can be observed. An analysis of published articles on Springer Nature shows that “open access articles are more read, cited, and receive more attention than non-OA articles.” (Springer Nature 2018) On average, open access articles are downloaded four times as frequently, cited 1.6 times more and receive 2.4 times more attention (according to Altmetric (Altmetric 2020)), than closed access articles. (Springer Nature 2018) There is also movement in the journals. In 2017, 16% of peer-reviewed articles were published in open access journals. (Scimago Journal & Country Rank 2020; August and Reply 2018) Within the last three years, open access journals were cited 7% more frequently than closed subscription journals.

  • Risks and Benefits of Therapy Psychotherapy is a process in which Therapist and Patient discuss a myriad of issues, events, experiences and memories for the purpose of creating positive change so Patient can experience his/her life more fully. It provides an opportunity to better, and more deeply understand oneself, as well as, any problems or difficulties Patient may be experiencing. Psychotherapy is a joint effort between Patient and Therapist. Progress and success may vary depending upon the particular problems or issues being addressed, as well as many other factors. Participating in therapy may result in a number of benefits to Patient, including, but not limited to, reduced stress and anxiety, a decrease in negative thoughts and self-sabotaging behaviors, improved interpersonal relationships, increased comfort in social, work, and family settings, increased capacity for intimacy, and increased self-confidence. Such benefits may also require substantial effort on the part of Patient, including an active participation in the therapeutic process, honesty, and a willingness to change feelings, thoughts and behaviors. There is no guarantee that therapy will yield any or all of the benefits listed above. Participating in therapy may also involve some discomfort, including remembering and discussing unpleasant events, feelings and experiences. The process may evoke strong feelings of sadness, anger, fear, etc. There may be times in which Therapist will challenge Patient’s perceptions and assumptions, and offer different perspectives. The issues presented by Patient may result in unintended outcomes, including changes in personal relationships. Patient should be aware that any decision on the status of his/her personal relationships is the responsibility of Patient. During the therapeutic process, many patients find that they feel worse before they feel better. This is generally a normal course of events. Personal growth and change may be easy and swift at times, but may also be slow and frustrating. Patient should address any concerns he/she has regarding his/her progress in therapy with Therapist. Professional Consultation Professional consultation is an important component of a healthy psychotherapy practice. As such, Therapist regularly participates in clinical, ethical, and legal consultation with appropriate professionals. During such consultations, Therapist will not reveal any personally identifying information regarding Patient.
