Choosing a journal with Prof. Bill Stoops

In this episode of Publishing Addiction Science, Dr Casy Calver talks to Prof. Bill Stoops about how to choose a journal in which to publish. Casy and Bill talk about how to define your audience so you can publish in a journal where your audience will find your research. Bill talks about his experiences as an author in addition to his views as a journal editor. He gives advice on how to approach journals to check whether an article is likely to be a good fit and therefore a good home for your hard won research paper. They also identify some red flags for identifying predatory journals.

Professor Bill Stoops is Editor for the journal Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology.

"One thing I really do think about... is where it's indexed. So, is it going to get caught in a broad search? Is it going to get caught in PubMed, is it going to get caught in PsychInfo?"
