Analysis and Enlightenment of the Functional Characteristics of Preprint Platforms
The preprint platform provides a convenient and fast academic exchange space,increasingly becoming an important component of scientific research work and a new channel for disseminating scientific research results.This article uses network survey method to deeply analyze the functional characteristics of international mainstream preprint platforms,and aims to provide useful insights for the construction and development of domestic preprint platforms.The functional characteristics of a mature preprint platform are reflected in improving the normative documents supporting platform functions,emphasizing the professionalism and rigor of preliminary review,supporting the submission of multiple types of research results,strengthening collaborative cooperation in journal publishing,clarifying data requirements and citation standards,and using dynamic impact evaluation indicators.Based on this,the inspiration for the functional construction of preprint platforms in China is proposed:to improve the functional specifications of preprint platforms;enhance the diversity of platform research manuscripts;clarify data usage and article citation standards;and establish natural evaluation indicators to measure influence.
