Possibly because authors still submitting to MDPI (even though deemed predatory) do so to avoid a thorough peer-review? You may want to rather ask those that do no longer submit their work…

“MDPI's 2024 author survey states 92% of authors rated our peer review process as excellent/good” What percent of readers feel the same?

Here's something I'm seeing more and more in "woke" research papers: ritualized, emotion-filled confessionals about the authors' "positionality" designed to signal academic rigor. These aren't actual research methods, although they're often in the Methods section. In this paper, the section is called "Reflexivity and Rigor." One author's "experience as a Black, genderfluid, queer clinician and academic" apparently shaped the research questions, while the other authors are described as "white, heterosexual, cisgender women." Then we get this: "These ongoing dialogues created intentional spaces to question ideas and examine how each author's social location informed their meaning-making." They also "shared excerpts from analytic memos...which captured the first and second authors' emotional reactions to the transcripts and their analytic insights." All of this apprently "deepened the authors' understanding of the data and helped to manage bias; thus, ensuring a thoughtfully interrogated analysis." This is bizarre. Academic publishing is supposed to minimize bias. That's the whole point of blinded peer review. But instead of concealing the authors' immutable characteristics, these papers foreground the authors' skin color, sexuality, and gender identity. The authors claim this helps "manage bias," but I suspect it does the opposite. Instead, it signals to reviewers: We are good, progressive, emotionally empathetic people doing The Work. Please treat us accordingly.

Dr. Judson Welcher trying to act like he doesn’t know what “scientific methodology” is, and what it means for something to be “peer reviewed,” is so disingenuous. He’s obfuscating because he’s clearly used no peer-reviewed scientific methodology in forming his supposed scientific conclusions. Peer-reviewed scientific methodologies are steadfast principles one employs when conducting a certain type of analysis, like accident reconstruction, for instance. It’s the equivalent to how open-heart surgeons are trained to conduct open heart surgery, for instance. Across the industry, open heart surgeons are similarly trained, and there’s a relative consistency in their work. This is because they employ scientific methodology when conducting their operations. Scientific methodology does not change and isn’t something that can’t be spoken about, despite Dr. Welcher’s desperate attempts to feign ignorance to the process—suggesting that he couldn’t have utilized peer-reviewed scientific methodologies in his experiments in this case because he “can’t submit his analysis to peer review” claiming that he’s “not allowed to give this (his analysis) to people outside the court.” This is utter absurdity and Welcher knows it. He knows that Alessi is asking him what peer-reviewed scientific methodologies and principles he relied upon to conduct his analysis in this case! Alessi’s obviously not asking Welcher if he submitted his case analysis in for peer review. Why are all the Commonwealth witnesses like this? #Aperture #KarenRead #JudsonWelcher #FreeKarenRead #KarenReadTrial #KarenReadTrial2 #KarenReadRetrial #JusticeForJohnOKeefe
