摘要：

【目的】分析Hindawi期刊批量撤销的论文的部分特征，以期为中国科技期刊处理对出版流程的系统性操纵提供参考。【方法】从Hindawi XML文集获取撤稿声明与被撤销论文。基于Web of Science核心合集分析被撤销论文的作者所属机构与被引用情况。【结果】Hindawi期刊在2022年11月16日至2024年3月20日共撤销11371篇论文。74.7%的被撤销论文发表于2022年，从投稿到接收平均经过46日，从投稿到发表平均经过77日，从发表到被撤销平均经过526日。同期发文量排名前50的中国机构参与发表18.6%的被撤销论文。【结论】批量撤销牵涉到对出版流程系统性操纵的论文，是出版商打击“论文工厂”的实践。尽管绝大部分被批量撤销的论文有来自中国的作者，但不能认为被撤销论文的作者对中国科研人员具有代表性。中国科技期刊应避免由编辑失职导致出版流程被操纵，科研机构应加强科研诚信教育以避免中国作者卷入类似事件。

Abstract:

［Purposes］ This study aims to analyze certain characteristics of papers retracted in batch by Hindawi journals, providing references for Chinese scientific journals in handling systemic manipulation of the publication process. ［Methods］ Retraction notices and retracted papers were obtained from Hindawi XML collections. The authors' affiliations and citation data of retracted papers were analyzed based on the Web of Science Core Collection. ［Findings］ From November 16, 2022, to March 20, 2024, Hindawi journals retract a total of 11371 papers. Of these retracted papers, 74.7% are published in 2022, with an average of 46 days from submission to acceptance, 77 days from submission to publication, and 526 days from publication to retraction. During the same period, 50 Chinese institutions with the highest publication volumes contribute to 18.6% of the retracted papers. ［Conclusions］ The batch retraction of papers involves systemic manipulation of the publication process, representing publishers' efforts to combat "paper mills". Although the majority of the retracted papers have authors from China, it should not be assumed that the authors of the retracted papers are representative of Chinese researchers. Chinese scientific journals should avoid editorial dysfunction that leads to manipulation of the publication process. Research institutions should strengthen education on research integrity to prevent Chinese authors from becoming involved in similar incidents.
