An unintended but positive side effect of the rise of AI and LLMs is that it may accelerate the long overdue reform of research assessment. If the "journals" are flooded with slop academia will be forced to take DORA seriously.

In the #RESQUE evaluation scheme („Research Quality Evaluation scheme for psychological research“), there is an indicator for publications: “Correctness of computational results has been independently verified“.
With CODECHECK, you can request and upload a verification certificate. This gives you "extra points“ in our evaluation scheme, as this is a real quality criterion.

Introductory course on responsible research assessment, just published by #SFDORA
https://sfdora.org/courses/introductory-course-to-responsible-research-assessment/The free and self-paced course "aims to empower anyone to challenge existing assumptions around research quality and impact, by introducing them to the concept of responsible research assessment, its foundational principles, and how RRA aims to improve evaluation practices."

The Helmholtz Open Science Office has published its own #CoARA action plan.
The action plan offers:
🕶️ An overview of the interactions between open science and research assessment reform
👁️ Classification of the current status quo

Today is the 24th birthday of the Budapest Open Access Initiative.
https://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/read/Best known for catalyzing the #OpenAccess movement in 2002, the BOAI has been continuously active and formed a nonprofit organization just last year.
https://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/news/boai-transitioning-to-organization-to-support-the-development-of-equitable-open-access/See the org's progress report on its first year.
https://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/news/boai-celebrates-anniversary-and-reflects-on-progress-of-first-year-as-an-organization/The latest version of the BOAI recommendations is its 20th anniversary statement.
https://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/boai20/In contrast to the earlier BOAI statements, which made many recommendations, the 20th anniversary statement deliberately focuses on a small number of top priorities:
1. Adopting #OpenInfrastructure
2. Reforming #ResearchAssessment
3. Moving away from #APCs
4. Moving away from #ReadAndPublish agreements.I'm proud of my contributions to #BOAI (2002), #BOAI10 (2012), and #BOAI20 (2022), and honored to serve on the org steering committee.
Happy #ValentinesDay to all who work for #OpenAccess worldwide.

Conflating "Responsible Metrics" with "Responsible Assessment" is a common strategic error in research management.
Responsible Metrics focus on data sources and quantification (the technical side). Responsible Assessment focuses on institutional processes, ethics, and people (the political/governance side).
Adopting better data tools (like OpenAlex) without reforming decision-making cultures is not a solution. It is often just a way to make the same mistakes using better data.
My latest analysis on why this distinction is critical for policy design: https://copdeb.com/2025/12/22/diferencia-metricas-responsable-evaluacion-responsable/

New research in Journal of Informetrics asked 2,300+ social scientists from 42 countries: what are your top-3 publications?
:doi: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joi.2025.101757
Only ~40% of self-identified “top” works also ranked in the author’s top-3 by citations. Even tripling citation counts wouldn’t push nearly a third of them into the bibliometric top. And 17% of “best” works don’t even appear in Scopus - especially in sociology and political science.

Although, or perhaps precisely because, the participants at the Research Assessment conference tend to be experienced and committed individuals, it is a very interesting conference. Many challenges are addressed, and at the same time it is motivating to see how small steps can change thinking and behaviour with regard to cultural change in science.

Participation in the breakout session "Leadership in change" at the CeRRA conference. Interesting perspectives and examples of the implementation of research assessment in institutions and the role that leadership play in this process.
The audience was also involved, and the mood was captured with red and green cards.What would you choose? Choose one card

For ten years, #CRediT 🎂 has offered 14 standardized contributor roles that make authorship transparent: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-03860-5
But there is a clear gap: CRediT has no place for #AI tools. So how should we properly disclose the use of ChatGPT & Co in research? One answer is #GAIDeT - Generative AI Delegation Taxonomy https://w3id.org/gaidet
