Open Access Publication in the Spotlight (November 2021)

Each month, the open access team of the University of Groningen Library (UB) puts a recent open access article by UG authors in the spotlight. This publication is highlighted via social media and the library’s newsletter and website.

Article in the spotlight for November 2021
'Long-Term Effects of Acceptance and Rejection by Parents and Peers on Educational Attainment: A Study from Pre-Adolescence to Early Adulthood', written by Sofie Lorijn, Maaike Engels, Mark Huisman and René Veenstra (all from the Sociology department at the Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences).

In our Open Science Blog, the authors reflect on their motivation to publish open access, their choice to pick a specific journal and their experiences with open access and open science in general.
