芬兰JUFO宣布271本来自MDPI和Frontier的期刊降为0级

2024年12月15日，芬兰JUFO宣布271本来自MDPI和Frontier的期刊降为0级。该决定基于指导小组自 2024 年 9 月 30 日起的政策，即从 2025 年初开始将 MDPI 和 Frontiers 中的灰色区域期刊降级为 0 级，但不包括小组在秋季会议上建议保持在 1 级的期刊。根据小组的建议，16 种 MDPI 期刊和 22 种 Frontiers 期刊将保持在 1 级。研究界可以通过 JUFO 门户网站对出版渠道的级别评级提供反馈。可以通过提出级别修改建议，建议将降级为 0 级的期刊恢复为 1 级。建议必须有理有据，并且理由不应仅基于影响因子。小组会定期审查建议。

JUFO出版论坛（芬兰语称为Julkaisufoorumi ）是芬兰针对科学期刊、丛书、会议和图书出版商的国家研究分类系统，用于支持研究成果的质量评估。于 2010 年开始运营，由芬兰学术团体联合会维护。自 2015 年起，芬兰教育与文化部将出版论坛作为大学研究成果的质量指标，这会影响大学公共资助标准。该指数将符合学术质量标准的期刊和出版商分为四个等级。1 级出版物包括符合同行评审标准并拥有该学科专家编辑委员会的出版物。大多数出版渠道都处于 1 级，这是基础级别。2 级和 3 级授予有限数量的被认为具有最高影响力的出版渠道。专家小组每四年对 2 级和 3 级期刊进行评估。不满足所有 1 级标准的出版渠道被标记为 0 级。

JUFO出版论坛指导小组于 2024 年 12 月 9 日决定，从 2025 年初开始将 271 种 MDPI 和 Frontiers 期刊降级为 0 级。降级的期刊名单如下：
