Islamic Psychology
Islamic Psychology Islamic Psychology or ilm an-nafs (science of the soul) is an important introductory textbook drawing on the latest evidence in the sub-disciplines of psychology to provide a balanced and comprehensive view of human nature, behaviour and experience. Its foundation to develop theories about human nature is based upon the writings of the Qur’an, Sunnah, Muslim scholars and contemporary research findings. Synthesising contemporary empirical psychology and Islamic psychology, this book is holistic in both nature and process and includes the physical, psychological, social and spiritual dimensions of human behaviour and experience. Through a broad and comprehensive scope, the book addresses three main areas: Context, perspectives and the clinical applications of applied psychology from an Islamic approach. This book is a core text on Islamic psychology for undergraduate and postgraduate students and those undertaking continuing professional development courses in Islamic psychology, psychotherapy and counselling. Beyond this, it is also a good supporting resource for teachers and lecturers in this field. Dr G. Hussein Rassool is Professor of Islamic Psychology, Consultant and Director for the Riphah Institute of Clinical and Professional Psychology/Centre for Islamic Psychology, Pakistan. He is accountable for the supervision and management of the four psychology departments, and has responsibility for scientific, educational and professional standards, and efficiency. He manages and coordinates the RICPP/Centre for Islamic Psychology programme of research and educational development in Islamic psychology, clinical interventions and service development, and liaises with the Head of the Departments of Psychology to assist in the integration of Islamic psychology and Islamic ethics in educational programmes and development of research initiatives and publication of research. -
The Extent of Predatory Journals in Student Bibliographies
vol. 14, no. 1 (2019) Theory and Research (peer-reviewed) DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.21083/partnership.v14i1.4764 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 Hype or Real Threat: The Extent of Predatory Journals in Student Bibliographies H. Rainer Schira Acting University Librarian Brandon University [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3915-8262 Chris Hurst Systems Librarian Brandon University [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1759-5680 Abstract Predatory publishing has risen with the development of open access publishing. This study examines how many potential predatory journals were used by Brandon University students by analyzing their bibliographies. In total, 245 bibliographies including 2,359 citations were analyzed. Of the 1,485 citations to journals in these citations, five were found to cite journals on Beall’s List of Predatory Journals and Publishers. The probable sources of these journals in the students’ bibliographies were examined. Keywords predatory publishing; open access publishing; academic libraries, bibliographic analysis Introduction This study was an attempt to quantify the presence of predatory journals in university students’ bibliographies. Predatory open access journal publishing, often shortened to Partnership: The Canadian Journal of Library and Information Practice and Research, vol. 14, no. 1 (2019) predatory publishing, has risen with the development of open access publishing. The term was coined by Jeffrey Beall (2010), who subsequently created a list of journals and publishers that met his criteria for being predatory. In a comparative review of nine open access journal publishers, Beall (2010) used the term “predatory publisher” to describe publishers whose mission was to exploit the author-pays open access model for their own profit (p. -

The Immoveable Barrier That Open Access Advocates Underestimated
Copyright: the immoveable barrier that open access advocates underestimated RICHARD POYNDER In calling for research papers to be made freely available open access advocates promised that doing so would lead to a simpler, less costly, more democratic, and more effective scholarly communication system. To achieve their objectives they proposed two different ways of providing open access: green OA (self-archiving) and gold OA (open access publishing). However, while the OA movement has succeeded in persuading research institutions and funders of the merits of open access, it has failed to win the hearts and minds of most researchers. More importantly, it is not achieving its objectives. There are various reasons for this, but above all it is because OA advocates underestimated the extent to which copyright would subvert their cause. That is the argument I make in the text below, and I include a personal case study that demonstrates the kind of problems copyright poses for open access. I also argue that in underestimating the extent to which copyright would be a barrier to their objectives, OA advocates have enabled legacy publishers to appropriate the movement for their own benefit, rather than for the benefit of the research community, and to pervert both the practice and the concept of open access. The originating text of this document includes many hyperlinks. To make use of these you can access the digital version here: http://www.richardpoynder.co.uk/Copyright.pdf When in 2001 open access (OA) became a thing1 two different methods were proposed for making research freely available on the Web. -

Although there has been a visible spurt in the quantity of scholarly publications from India, the average quality of research output remains low. Instances of research misconduct, including but not limited to data fabrication, falsification and plagiarism are aplenty. In such a scenario, there is need for the Indian research community to focus on publishing ethics to be at par with international standards. Research and innovation are the key sources of competitive advantage for a society and help in its overall economic, social and cultural well-being.
