Abstract

Purpose: To investigate the extent to which ResearchGate members as AUTHORS of JOURNAL ARTICLEs comply with publishers’ COPYRIGHT policies when they self-archive full-text of their ARTICLEs on RESEARCH GATE.Methodology: A random sample of 500 English JOURNAL ARTICLEs available as full-text on RESEARCH GATE was chosen (using a two-step random sampling) and the information of the ARTICLEs and their AUTHORS were collected from RESEARCH GATE.Compliance of their full-text availability then was checked against JOURNAL publishers’ policy mentioned in JOURNAL’s site or SHERPA/RoMEO.Results: Of these, 64 (13.4%) were preprint, 26 (5.2%) were post-print and 407 (81.2%) were published (publisher) PDF. The key finding was that 40.2% out of 500 ARTICLEs infringed the COPYRIGHT and were non-compliant with publisher policy.Although social sciences had the smallest number of ARTICLEs overall, their number of non-compliant ARTICLEs was larger than those of other fields.Conclusion: Most of non-compliance cases occur when AUTHORS use publishers’ PDF for archiving. Given that two-fifths of RESEARCH GATE full-text ARTICLEs are not aligned with publishers’ COPYRIGHT policies, AUTHORS and RESEARCH GATE need to pay more attention to the issue and take measures for COPYRIGHT compliance.
