Open Access Journals for Psychology Researchers

(Originally posted on Saturday, December 19, 2015 at -
http://psychologyforum4pinoystudents.blogspot.com/2015/12/open-source-psychology-journals.html )




Can't afford to pay expensive online academic journals? Well that's so common problem, thanks to the conscientious men and women who thought of OPEN ACCESS so we now have answer to this perennial problem. 

Should you find a study from a paywall journal  but could not afford it, your  best option is to try contact/email the author/s directly. Most of them are very generous to share their research works/articles. So when you use/cite their works be sure to provide them copy of your search out put as well. Citing their work increases their credibility in their field.


If you do not have money to pay for those expensive journals (at least US $29-40/title) or your school is not subscribing to any of those online journals then maximize the availability of open source journals instead. If the study is not readily downloadable then try asking author/s a copy of their works. 


Enjoy your research and make your research output useful for humanity.

Caveat - if you notice that some of the journal links provided are questionable and predatory in nature, do point them out and make your comment below. 


We have so far found two online journals in the country (should you know other local libraries with online link/site inform us to include here): 

Pambansang Samahan sa Sikolohiyang Pilipino (PSSP)http://www.pssp.org.ph/diwa/category/mga-isyu/
http://www.pssp.org.ph/diwa/diwa-tomo-2-bilang-1/


U.P. Diliman Journals Online

SCROLL DOWN until the last portion.

Legal alternative to academic publishing paywalls - install the unpaywall to your google chrome browser from this site - http://unpaywall.org
Frequently asked questions
http://unpaywall.org/faq

Who's behind Unpaywall? We're Impactstory, a nonprofit working to make science more open and reusable online. We're supported by grants from the National Science Foundation and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Why did you make it? Now more than ever, humanity needs to access our collective knowledge, not hoard it behind paywalls. Lots of researchers feel the same; that's why they upload their papers to free, legal servers online. We want to help bring that open access content to the masses. How often does Unpaywall find full text? We find fulltext for 65-85% of articles, depending on their topic and year of publication. We think that's a game-changer for the publishing industry. Now that most articles are free, why subscribe? Over the longer term, we'll keep getting even better as mandatory open access requirements begin to take effect in the US, UK, Europe, and elsewhere. How do you find all these fulltext articles? We gather content from thousands of open-access repositories worldwide. To help us, we rely on a number of data sources, including PubMed Central, the DOAJ, Crossref (particulary their license info), DataCite, Google Scholar, and BASE. After we put all this data together, we in turn make it open for reuse via the oaDOI API: a free, fast, and very scalable way to leverage our data and infrastructure to support your own projects. How's this different from Sci-Hub? Like Unpaywall, Sci-Hub finds fulltext PDFs for paywalled articles. The main difference is where those PDFs come from: Unpaywall finds PDFs legally uploaded by the authors themselves, while Sci-Hub uses PDFs that are obtained by other means, including automated web scraping of publisher sites. Sci-Hub's method delivers more comprehensive results, but is not super legal. So while we're not against Sci-Hub, we think Unpaywall offers a more sustainable approach by working within copyright law and supporting the growing open access movement. How's this different from the Open Access Button? The OA Button and Unpaywall are similar. But the OA Button is a more mature project (it's been working since 2013), and has a different user interface as well as extra features including author emailing and finding open datasets. Unpaywall is more focused on seamlessly finding free content. The great thing is, both are open-source and free, so you can install both, or fork 'em and make your own better extension! What's your privacy policy? The extension doesn't store or ask for any personal information from you, so when you use Unpaywall we don't know who you are. The extension doesn't track your browsing history, and it doesn't send any content from any page you visit to our servers, with one exception: when a page has a DOI (a short identifier used by scholarly articles), we send that DOI to our server (using an encrypted HTTPS connection) to find any free versions. We will log requests to our servers (which include the DOI and the IP address the request came from) in order to monitor and improve service. But those logs aren't connected to your identity. Furthermore, the extension won't send or use any kind of browser fingerprinting technology to identify your computer. Can Unpaywall tell me whether an article is "Green" or "Gold" OA? Indeed we can. Click the green Unpaywall extension icon in your browser toolbar and choose "Settings." Once there, tick "Color-code tab for Green and Gold OA." Thenceforth, you'll enjoy a veritable rainbow of OA colorfully goodness as you browse different articles: Gold tab for Gold OA, articles available from the publisher under an open license. (example) Green tab for Green OA articles on a preprint server or institutional repository. (example) Blue tab for articles available on the current page, but lacking license information (often that's because you're browsing from behind the paywall). (example) I found a bug Sorry about that! Unfortunately this is pretty common, especially where publishers don't follow standard practices for article display (as they often do not). For instance, we don't work for articles missing DOIs. The good news is that it's still early days for this project and it's under very active development. When you find an error, drop us an email and we'll get it fixed for you.

A few additional methods:

PubMed Central (PMC) is a free full-text archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature at the U.S. National Institutes of Health's National Library of Medicine. 4.3 million articles currently archived.
PLOS (for Public Library of Science) is a nonprofit open access scientific publishing project aimed at creating a library of open access journals and other scientific literature.
CiteSeerX is a public search engine and digital library and repository for scientific and academic papers primarily with a focus on computer and information science.
Reddit Scholar is a place where you can request papers.
* Wikipedia has a (small) list of Open Access journals.

Also, Hinari provides free or very low cost online access to some journals in biomedical and related social sciences to local, not-for-profit institutions in developing countries.

Related and new: the Initiative for Open Citations I4OC is a collaboration between scholarly publishers, researchers, and other interested parties to promote the unrestricted availability of scholarly citation data.
