Almost 30% did say YES we feel compelled. Is it possible to review the responses and try to see if there are any regional trends in them? Thanks!!! -

Publishing the incomplete research is nearly harmful to society and generate untrusting knowledge. -

Noone asked an important question: Would you publish something you are not keen to put your name on? Pressure or not. -

I think collaborations may help with the pressure to publish. For a first author paper, unless you work in a computational backgroung, one needs about a year to complete, assuming everything goes well, and no technical difficulties arise. Without participating in other lateral projects, that take say 10% of your time, 1 paper a year is a full on job. For last authors this process becomes easier, becuase they have 2 or 3 projects they are focussing on, plus 3 or 4 they help with at a 2% of their time. It is intense, but this ensures a stream of manuscipts you have participated in, but not been actually doing, and would become mature enough for publication. -

Journal houses should hire high quality reviewers exclusively in all the areas in which the journal publishes. Those reviewers shall be well paid and themselves will not be publishing any more so that the conflict of interest can be totally avoided. Hiring academic researchers or faculty to review the papers sent by other faculty certainly ends up in conflict of interest though they would have ticked the boxes saying ghat there is no conflict of interest. -

The area in which I work, thousands of top notch researchers are working. Sonit is quite challenging to stay ahead and publish in top notch journals. It also gives us an opportunity to rise the bar and reach new levels in quality of research that I do -

If the pressure of pu location affects quality, then I would say that it is jot research at all -

It is unethical and incorrect to even think of publishing when the work is incomplete
