Resumo: This study aims to assess the level of adherence the Brazilian elite of researchers to open access journals as a strategy to publish their research. In this study, the 1,205 researchers who received the CNPq PQ 1A productivity scholarship in 2016 are considered as the Brazilian elite. Personal and academic data as well as data of scientific production from these researchers were collected (2000-2015) in the Lattes Platform. Adherence was defined as the fraction of open access articles of each of the 1,205 PQ 1A researchers in relation to the total number of articles they published. Three analyses were conducted to identify the relationship between adherence to open access journals and: (1) the researchers’ gender, (2) the geographic region of the researchers’ affiliation and (3) their main area of research. Over the four quadrennia, the number of researchers of very low adherence to open access was to decrease, but only 10% of researchers showed high or very high adherence. Female researchers, researchers from the Northeast region and researchers from the Agricultural and Applied Social Sciences showed greater adherence to open access journals. Adherence to open access journals by the Brazilian elite of researchers, though growing, was still found to be low, a worrying situation, considering that this group is a reference for the Brazilian scientific community.

Neste estudo, a elite foi definida como o grupo de 1.205 pesquisadores que recebiam bolsa de produtividade PQ 1A do CNPq em 2016. Foram coletados, na Plataforma Lattes, dados pessoais e acadêmicos e dados sobre a produção científica desses pesquisadores referentes ao período de 2000 a 2015, em quadriênios. Definiu-se adesão como a fração de artigos em acesso aberto de cada um dos 1.205 pesquisadores PQ 1A em relação ao total de artigos que eles publicaram. Foram realizadas três análises, buscando identificar a relação da adesão aos periódicos de acesso aberto com: (1) o gênero dos pesquisadores, (2) a região geográfica da instituição de vínculo e (3) a grande área de pesquisa definida pelo CNPq. Verificou-se, ao longo dos quadriênios, uma redução na faixa de pesquisadores classificados como de muito baixa adesão ao acesso aberto, porém, somente 10% dos pesquisadores foram classificados como de alta ou muito alta adesão. Pesquisadoras mulheres, pesquisadores da região Nordeste e pesquisadores das ciências agrárias e das ciências sociais aplicadas mostraram maior adesão aos periódicos de acesso aberto. O conjunto de resultados indica que a adesão a periódicos de acesso aberto pela elite brasileira de pesquisadores, apesar de crescente, ainda é baixa, um cenário preocupante, dado que esse grupo é referência para a comunidade científica brasileira.Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Faculdade de Biblioteconomia e Comunicação, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência da Informação (Porto Alegre/RS)2020-09-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/EmQuestao/article/view/9935910.19132/1808-5245263.15-42Em Questão; v. 26, n. 3, set./dez. 2020; 15-42Em Questão; v. 26, n. 3, set./dez. 2020; 15-42Em Questão; v. 26, n. 3, set./dez. 2020; 15-421808-52451807-8893reponame:Em Questão (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/EmQuestao/article/view/99359/57898Copyright (c) 2020 Elaine Hipólito dos Santos Costa, Simone da Rocha Weitzel, Jacqueline Letahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCosta, Elaine Hipólito dos SantosWeitzel, Simone da RochaLeta, Jacqueline2024-03-19T13:13:05Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/99359Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/emquestao/PUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/EmQuestao/oaiemquestao@ufrgs.br||emquestao@ufrgs.br1808-52451807-8893opendoar:2024-03-19T13:13:05Em Questão (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
