Open Access Publication in the Spotlight (November 2022)

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 2022
The article in the spotlight for the month of November 2022 is titled Why mental disorders are brain disorders. And why they are not: ADHD and the challenges of heterogeneity and reification written by Stephan Schleim (Department of Theory & History of Psychology, Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences).

In our Open Science Blog, Stephan Schleim reflects on why he chose to publish in Frontiers in Psychiatry, how he paid for the article processing charge (APC), his view on outreach activities by academics, and his experiences with open access and open science in general.
