论文摘要
本文重点介绍了基于文章处理费用和研究迄今已忽略的一个方面的转型对黄金开放访问发布的可能影响:可能的成本分担模型是否会导致相同的总体费用,或者它们会给所涉及的研究机构带来不同的财务负担吗?它将当前的黄金OA发布状态作为起点,基于不同作者角色,作者数量和作者地址组合,开发了五个可能的归因成本模型。对不同模型应用的分布效应的分析表明,所有模型都会为绝大多数机构提供相似的支出。尽管如此,在一些研究机构中,大多数和最便宜的模型之间的差异会导致大量资金。鉴于该模型计算仅考虑开放访问的出版物以及所有作者来自德国的出版物,因此,不同的成本共享模型可能会成为有关如何基于出版费用向开放访问的大规模转换的辩论中的一个问题。
The article focuses on possible financial effects of the transformation towards Gold Open Access publishing based on article processing charges and studies an aspect that has so far been overlooked: Do possible cost sharing models lead to the same overall expenses or do they result in different financial burdens for the research institutions involved? It takes the current state of Gold OA publishing as a starting point, develops five possible models of attributing costs based on different author roles, number of authors and author-address-combinations. The analysis of the distributional effects of the application of the different models shows that all models result in similar expenditures for the overwhelming majority of institutions. Still, there are some research institutions where the difference between most and least expensive model results in a considerable amount of money. Given that the model calculation only considers publications that are Open Access and where all authors come from Germany, it is likely that different cost sharing models will become an issue in the debate on how to shoulder a possible large scale transformation towards Open Access based on publication fees.
