Analysis / Bias
Aging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition is an open-access journal that publishes information and research related to aging and cognitive neuroscience. For Example: The effect of attribute framing and polarization levels on evaluations among older and younger adults.
Taylor & Francis is an open-access publisher of scientific journals. There are two types of Open Access Journals, legitimate and predatory, both of which charge the author for publication. Predatory journals often lack peer review and are generally considered not credible. Taylor & Francis is considered a legitimate, open-access publisher that is frequently indexed in PubMed.
Although Taylor & Francis has retracted some studies in other publications that were found to be of poor methodology and not thoroughly peer-reviewed, the Aging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition publishes credible scientific studies that are factual and appropriately peer-reviewed.
