And many of these are “peer reviewed” by paying the journal to publish.

It is common for publishers to charge fees for submission, publication, or page charges. This is separate from peer review. Some of the most prominent journals, such as Nature, charge premium fees to authors.

Oh, congrats. You were finally honest about something.

Based on the track record of your fellow trolls, I am not hopeful that this represents any kind of a trend.

In the publications I have made I have never once been charged nor has the submitting institution. But the case majority of those article have editorial boards who are not peers, I analyzed one earlier this year and the degrees were not only nor clinical but not scienctific. One of them had a community organizer social worker as assoc editor in chief.

Looking at the sources it is laughable. But i acquiesce to the point that some respected journals may make an administrative fee to submit, but it likely does not guarantee publication as many of the so called open source on line journals promise.
