Now, with the new models in which people produce content authors and borne dissemination, increase incentives to publish more, as the proceeds of the magazine are maximized with the volume of items processed; a particularly powerful incentive prestigious open access journals know how to control, but it can severely affect quality in all types of publishers. In this scenario, research budgets, financed mostly with public funds, are fundamentally continue to face the expense, before and subscribers and now through authorship. In exchange for funding a public good (have someone read an article does not prevent someone else does too) and do reach wider populations, are also contributing to spread more trash, though initiatives such as Beall help limit excesses 1 2 .
