In recognition of the growing impact of OA in China, the organizations jointly published a 93-page report titled <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stm-assoc.org\/cast-report\/\" style=\"color:#0563c1; text-decoration:underline\"><i>Open Access Publishing in China 2022<\/i><\/a> online on December 12.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin: 12pt 0cm 0cm;\"><span style=\"font-size:16pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri Light&quot;,sans-serif\"><span style=\"color:#2f5496\"><span style=\"font-weight:normal\">Key lessons from <i>Open Access Publishing in China 2022<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 2pt 0cm 0cm;\">\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 2pt 0cm 0cm;\"><span style=\"font-size:13pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri Light&quot;,sans-serif\"><span style=\"color:#2f5496\"><span style=\"font-weight:normal\">OA has grown rapidly in China; room remains for growth<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">While both top-down and grassroots initiatives have helped OA to flourish, OA in China has been promoted greatly by the Chinese government. The government recognized the development of OA as early as 2003, when the Ministry of Education launched <a href=\"http:\/\/en.paper.edu.cn\/\" style=\"color:#0563c1; text-decoration:underline\">Sciencepaper Online<\/a>. Furthermore, in 2014, the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, both major national funding agencies, announced that researchers should deposit their research online and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/nature.2014.15255\" style=\"color:#0563c1; text-decoration:underline\">make all papers publicly available online within 12 months of their publication<\/a>. Accordingly, OA has grown quickly in China, with an average annual growth rate of 25.2% in terms of the number of international papers published by authors from 2011 to 2021.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0cm 0cm 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">The report shows that Chinese researchers also show good awareness of OA and are willing to publish in the OA paradigm. While the report does not provide a like-for-like comparison between Chinese and international researchers, 16.23% of questionnaire respondents from China had a very good understanding of OA, and 42.42% had a moderate understanding. Furthermore, respondents provided many opinions on the benefits of OA, identifying the increased speed and breadth or research dissemination as being benefits of OA.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0cm 0cm 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Despite this, a lower percentage of Chinese researchers are likely to publish in OA publications compared to the global average; in 2021, 50.3% of papers worldwide were published OA, compared to 37.8% in China. The report does not directly account for this discrepancy; however, there remain substantial differences in OA model depending on whether journals are written in the Chinese or English language, with Chinese-language journals clearly favoring bronze or subscription-only models for OA compared to the trend towards gold OA seen in English-language journals.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 2pt 0cm 0cm;\"><span style=\"font-size:13pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri Light&quot;,sans-serif\"><span style=\"color:#2f5496\"><span style=\"font-weight:normal\">China shows an accelerating trend towards gold OA<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Gold OA, in which authors pay an article-processing charge (APC) to allow their paper to be made free-of-charge for anybody with an internet connection, has emerged as the most popular mode of OA worldwide, accounting for around 30% of all OA publications worldwide in 2020. China has shown very similar growth trends, with gold OA reaching almost 30% of all publications. Despite differences in the OA landscape, the report\u2019s findings show an increasing consensus around gold OA worldwide. Likewise, there may be increases in so-called diamond or platinum OA journals, which waive all APCs in favor of institutional support or crowdfunding, but it remains to be seen how these will compete with other OA models.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 2pt 0cm 0cm;\"><span style=\"font-size:13pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri Light&quot;,sans-serif\"><span style=\"color:#2f5496\"><span style=\"font-weight:normal\">Increasing focus on research integrity<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">OA offers many clear advantages for researchers, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fcomm.2020.587465\/full\" style=\"color:#0563c1; text-decoration:underline\">concerns surrounding research integrity and reputability<\/a> remain the primary obstacles to the growth of OA publishing.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0cm 0cm 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">STM and CAST provide accounts of what has been done to combat academic dishonesty from global and Chinese perspectives, respectively. While the \u201cpolicing\u201d of open science has largely been a grassroots effort overseas, the Ministry of Science and Technology of China has founded the Department of Science and Technology Supervision and Integrity Construction to prevent and handle breaches in research ethics.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0cm 0cm 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Government bodies in China have also been remarkably proactive in issuing warnings concerning <a href=\"http:\/\/www.naturechina.com\/public\/upload\/pdf\/2021\/04\/02\/60667baa40ebc.pdf\" style=\"color:#0563c1; text-decoration:underline\">paper mills<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.igg.cas.cn\/xwzx\/kyjz\/202101\/t20210101_5849507.html\" style=\"color:#0563c1; text-decoration:underline\">predatory journals<\/a>.
