Anyway, one paper we started looking into earlier this week is almost certainly fraudulent, so that's a result I guess. Depressing

Okay, but that actually makes it... not true that it takes ten times the effort to respond? It takes more than three hours or even days to fabricate a paper.

This is just how long it takes me to be relatively certain about something. It takes at least 3-4 people weeks of checking through shit to actually prove that a study is fraud

The gish-gallop tactic. It's exhausting bc it takes so long to research & refute each claim but then they throw another 10 at you.

Do you think you are typical in this? The fashion for very fast turnaround bothers me. Aren’t reviewers usually busy enough that they can’t immediately make space for a day or more to do a review?

Most of us that review papers in our field do a great deal of the work in our own time. Taking papers home at night or doing them over the weekend or even on vacation is very common. No pay is given and no academic credit for this vital work.

This isnwhy graduate students should be given the opportunity to be on the OTHER side of the review process. We would all be better researchers and writers. (Or at least be told some journals allow them the opportunity if they do not wish to do it with a mentor)

I am trying to develop a practical “worthometer” to see if doing so is really worth my time. My current approach is putting it aside and resurface it in 48 hours. I f I have the same initial reaction, then I do it.
