Abstract:
Influenced by Chinese traditional thought, some contemporary editors of Chinese academic journals have holistic and authority-based thought patterns and values. Editors with such ideas are easily misled in the refereeing of manuscripts. This leads to some high-quality manuscripts being turned down and others, of little academic value, being published. The editorial aim of publication of the best material is difficult to realize. If a journal wishes to develop and gain international acceptance, editors with such ideas must adjust and change their thought patterns and values.Document Type: Research article
