Professional Development: Demystifying Open Access
Sage Publications editors Jessica Offenberger and Sara Parker, and editor-in-chief of Advances in Methods and Practices in Psychological Science, Dave Sbarra, joined APS for a webinar about demystifying open access publishing. Open access research is published for free and is available online immediately. The ownership is retained by the publication’s authors. Open access publishing has advantages over traditional publishing. It is globally accessible, and it can also foster greater collaboration and visibility, as the authors are in control of their publication. “Ultimately it's about making your research more discoverable, accessible, and impactful,” Parker explained.
