SECOND STATEMENT ABOUT LEGITIMACY OF ARTICLES APPEARING IN THE JOURNAL OF MARKETING CHANNELS FROM THE PREVIOUS EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

The purpose of this post is to again call attention (see my previous ELMAR post of September 9, 2019, “J Mar Channels – Once Again”) to articles published online and in Volume 25, Issue 1-2 and Issue 3 that are in my view illegitimate and in violation of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) Code of Conduct for Journal Publishers of which Taylor & Francis, publisher of the Journal of Marketing Channels and a subsidiary of Routledge, is a party to.

It will allow me to make academic and other potential users of these materials aware of their questionable provenance in that they have been posted on the Journal of Marketing Channels website and now, regrettably, are in print despite my notification to the publisher via e-mail August 29, 2019 through Tracy Roberts, Publishing Director (HSS), Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group (Tracy.Roberts@tandf.co.uk) that there are ethical and other problems with journal editorial processes that require the retraction of articles as detailed below.

I have indeed accepted these articles for publication after peer review. However, they were then copy edited and typeset unilaterally by Taylor & Francis without the participation of an academic editor. Give that article proofs were often returned to me – even after I had professionally edited and formatted them – with more than 100 induced errors, I have no confidence that the final version of these papers are sound. Supervision of an academic editor is essential to ensure that what is being published is technically and theoretically faithful to the author’s intent.

There is a new academic editor unilaterally appointed by Taylor & Francis seemingly without the involvement or approval of the Journal’s Editorial Review Board on or about October 17, 2019 according to an ELMAR post October 20, 2019 (“J Mar Channels”) from Laura Raines. Papers processed and posted online after that date may have had academic supervision.

However, all articles published in Volume 25, Issue 1-2 are shown on the Journal website as published online August 19 or 20 (2019). Similarly, Issue 3 published online dates are August 19 or 20, September 12, and September 19 (2019). Therefore, there was no academic editor then on duty to oversee the correctness of production from an academic perspective.

Similarly, Volume 26, Issue 1 (dated 2020), contains articles identified as published online August 19 or 20 (2019). I did accept papers with these dates, but again they could not have been published with academic oversight as there was no academic editor in August.

As noted previously, with no academic editor in place to supervise the current publication, the tacit agreement between the publisher and academia that the content of academic journals is always approved by an academic editor BEFORE publication online or in print is violated. This essentially makes these articles and any associated issues illegitimate. These articles should have been retracted until such time as they could be properly published under the supervision of a qualified academic editor and certainly before they entered the research record as printed, bound documents.

Regarding the publisher’s ethical responsibility to protect the integrity of the research record, Volume 25, Issue 1-2, is dated April 2018 with a copyright date of 2018 on the inside front cover. Volume 25, Issue 3 is similarly dated July 2018 and Issue 4, October 2018. The article citation dates are all 2018 and all outside covers show Volume 25 as appearing in 2018. However, these issues first appeared online in 2019, indicating that the publication date and any reference or citation for these articles is patently false. Taylor & Francis appears to have falsified the publication and research record for these articles in the Journal of Marketing Channels.

In my view, as these journal issues and associated articles have been produced improperly with a corrupted research record and not retracted as requested, they should not be referenced, cited, or considered for academic credit of any type.

Sincerely,

Neil

The Case Research Foundation and the North American Case Research Association (NACRA) are pleased to announce the 2020 PAUL R. LAWRENCE FELLOWSHIPS, for doctoral students and early-career academics interested in developing their skills in CASE TEACHING, RESEARCH, AND WRITING. The Fellowships support travel to, lodging at, and registration fees to attend the North American Case Research Association annual meeting. This year’s annual meeting will be held at the Hyatt Regency San Antonio Riverwalk in Texas, on October 8-10, 2020. Special programming for the Fellows will provide an intensive introduction to case teaching, research, and writing. The Fellows will be paired with senior academic mentors and will participate in all conference sessions and activities. For more information and application materials, please see the attached flyer, and go to .

“Best experience ever! The program for fellows was very well-designed. I met awesome people and gained so much from those wonderful seminars, constructive discussions and helpful mentoring.” – Caleb Chen, Macau University of Science and Technology

“A positive atmosphere and great people passionate about what they do made this a unique experience for me.” – Andrea Patrucco, The Pennsylvania State University, Beaver

“From special sessions, to 1-on-1 mentoring, to being part of a cohort of amazing Fellows who became friends and even collaborators before the end of the conference, it was an experience I will carry with me for a long time to come.” – Kiran Kandade, Aston Business School

I was fortunate to participate as a Fellow in 2015 and can testify to the substantial value that I and the other Fellows received from the process. For those wishing to strengthen their case writing abilities, while building a network of some of the best case writers in the world, the Paul R. Lawrence Fellowship is a perfect opportunity.

The INFORMS Society for Marketing Science (ISMS) solicits entries for the 2020 Practice Prize Competition, the culmination of which will take place at the:

2020 ISMS Marketing Science Conference

Goal: The goal of the Practice Prize is to highlight and celebrate outstanding marketing science work that has had significant organizational impact.

Eligibility: The Practice Prize is awarded for outstanding implementation of marketing science concepts and methods. The methods used must be innovative, sound, and appropriate to the problem and organization, and the work should have had significant, verifiable, and preferably quantitative impact on the performance of the client organization. Historically, two types of entries have been recognized: (1) a history of successful applications across time and/or organizations and (2) a single, impactful application. For the latter type of entry, the work should normally be completed within the five-year period prior to the year of the competition. All the work done between July 2014 and June 2019 will be eligible to enter the 2020 competition. Prior publication of the work does not disqualify it. Anyone is eligible to enter except members of the judging committee.

Entry and Details: Entrants must submit:

• a 500-1000 word Abstract of the work, and
• An Impact Statement, a supplementary summary of what was accomplished and its organizational impact in enough detail (normally 500-1000 words) to judge the appropriateness of the work for the competition.
• Supplementary technical material that provides sufficient technical detail to permit the Prize Committee to judge the technical merit of the work.

Three or four competition finalists will be selected from amongst the entries.

Finalists will present their work at the ISMS Marketing Science Conference and the judging will take place immediately thereafter. The winner (or, in unusual circumstances, winners) will be announced at the Conference. Finalists will have the right to submit their work to Marketing Science in the Practice Prize submission category.

For a summary of some previous Finalists see Lilien, Roberts and Shankar (Marketing Science 32.2 (2013): 229-245).
